This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report being filed by Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the "Company"). This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflects the results of Dow and its consolidated subsidiaries, after giving effect to the distribution to DowDuPont Inc. (“DowDuPont” and effective June 3, 2019, n/k/a DuPont de Nemours, Inc. or "DuPont") of TDCC’s agricultural sciences business (“AgCo”) and specialty products business (“SpecCo”) and the receipt of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries' (“Historical DuPont”) ethylene and ethylene copolymers business (other than its ethylene acrylic elastomers business) ("ECP"). The U.S. GAAP consolidated financial results of Dow Inc. and TDCC reflect the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo as discontinued operations for the applicable periods presented as well as the receipt of ECP as a common control transaction from the closing of the merger with Historical DuPont on August 31, 2017. In addition, following the separation from DowDuPont, the Company changed the manner in which its business activities were managed. The Company's portfolio now includes six global businesses which are organized into the following operating segments: Packaging & Specialty Plastics, Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure and Performance Materials & Coatings. Corporate contains the reconciliation between the totals for the operating segments and the Company's totals. As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Each of Dow Inc. and TDCC is filing information in this report on its own behalf and neither company makes any representation to the information relating to the other company.
Background
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of TDCC, owning all of the outstanding common shares of TDCC. For filings related to the period commencing April 1, 2019 and thereafter, TDCC was deemed the predecessor to Dow Inc., and the historical results of TDCC are deemed the historical results of Dow Inc. for periods prior to and including March 31, 2019.
The separation was contemplated by the merger of equals transaction effective August 31, 2017, under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017. TDCC and Historical DuPont each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont and, as a result, TDCC and Historical DuPont became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the “Merger”). Subsequent to the Merger, TDCC and Historical DuPont engaged in a series of internal reorganization and realignment steps to realign their businesses into three subgroups: agriculture, materials science and specialty products. Dow Inc. was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of DowDuPont to serve as the holding company for the materials science business.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance, financial condition, and other matters, and often contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “opportunity,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” "target," “will,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “would” and similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: expectations as to future sales of Dow’s products; the ability to protect Dow’s intellectual property in the United States and abroad; estimates regarding Dow’s capital requirements and need for and availability of financing; estimates of Dow’s expenses, future revenues and profitability; estimates of the size of the markets for Dow’s products and services and Dow’s ability to compete in such markets; expectations related to the rate and degree of market acceptance of Dow’s products; the outcome of certain Dow contingencies, such as litigation and environmental matters; estimates of the success of competing technologies that may become available; the continuing global and regional economic impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic and crude oil supply and price volatility; estimates regarding benefits achieved through contemplated restructuring activities, such as workforce reduction and exit and disposal activities; and expectations regarding the benefits and costs associated with each of the foregoing.
Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and expectations of future events which may not be realized and speak only as of the date the statements were made. In addition, forward-looking statements also involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that are beyond Dow’s control that could cause Dow’s actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in energy and raw material prices; failure to develop and market new products and optimally manage product life cycles; significant litigation and environmental matters; failure to appropriately manage process safety and product stewardship issues; changes in laws and regulations or political conditions; global economic and capital markets conditions, such as inflation, market uncertainty, interest and currency exchange rates, and equity and commodity prices; business or supply disruptions; security threats, such as acts of sabotage, terrorism or war; weather events and natural disasters; ability to protect, defend and enforce Dow’s intellectual property rights; increased competition; changes in relationships with Dow’s significant customers and suppliers; unanticipated expenses such as litigation or legal settlement expenses; unanticipated business disruptions; Dow’s ability to predict, identify and interpret changes in consumer preferences and demand; Dow’s ability to complete proposed divestitures or acquisitions; Dow’s ability to realize the expected benefits of acquisitions if they are completed; the availability of financing to Dow in the future and the terms and conditions of such financing; disruptions in Dow’s information technology networks and systems; the continuing risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic and crude oil supply and price volatility; and Dow's ability to realize the expected benefits of restructuring activities if they are approved and completed. Additionally, there may be other risks and uncertainties that Dow is unable to identify at this time or that Dow does not currently expect to have a material impact on its business.
Risks related to achieving the anticipated benefits of Dow's separation from DowDuPont include, but are not limited to, a number of conditions outside the control of Dow, including risks related to: (i) Dow's inability to achieve some or all of the benefits that it expects to receive from the separation from DowDuPont; (ii) certain tax risks associated with the separation; (iii) the failure of Dow's pro forma financial information to be a reliable indicator of Dow's future results; (iv) Dow's inability to receive third-party consents required under the separation agreement; (v) non-compete restrictions under the separation agreement; (vi) receipt of less favorable terms in the commercial agreements Dow entered into with DuPont and Corteva, Inc. ("Corteva"), including restrictions under intellectual property cross-license agreements, than Dow would have received from an unaffiliated third party; and (vii) Dow's obligation to indemnify DuPont and/or Corteva for certain liabilities.
Where, in any forward-looking statement, an expectation or belief as to future results or events is expressed, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of management and expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. For a more detailed discussion of Dow’s risks and uncertainties, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A of the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. Dow Inc. and TDCC assume no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by securities and other applicable laws.

NOTE 1 – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Merger and Separation
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont Inc. (“DowDuPont” and effective June 3, 2019, n/k/a DuPont de Nemours, Inc. or "DuPont") completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the “Company”). The separation was contemplated by the merger of equals transaction effective August 31, 2017, under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017. TDCC and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Historical DuPont”) each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont and, as a result, TDCC and Historical DuPont became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the “Merger”). Subsequent to the Merger, TDCC and Historical DuPont engaged in a series of internal reorganization and realignment steps to realign their businesses into three subgroups: agriculture, materials science and specialty products. Dow Inc. was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of DowDuPont to serve as the holding company for the materials science business. See Note 3 for additional information.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. and TDCC were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Effective April 1, 2019, Dow Inc. owns all of the outstanding common shares of TDCC. TDCC is deemed the predecessor to Dow Inc. and the historical results of TDCC are deemed the historical results of Dow Inc. for periods prior to and including March 31, 2019. As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted.
As of the effective date and time of the distribution, DowDuPont does not beneficially own any equity interest in Dow and no longer consolidates Dow and its consolidated subsidiaries into its financial results. The consolidated financial results of Dow for all periods presented reflect the distribution of TDCC’s agricultural sciences business (“AgCo”) and specialty products business (“SpecCo”) as discontinued operations, as well as the receipt of Historical DuPont’s ethylene and ethylene copolymers businesses (other than its ethylene acrylic elastomers business) (“ECP”) as a common control transaction from the closing of the Merger on August 31, 2017. See Note 3 for additional information.
From the Merger date through the separation, transactions between DowDuPont, TDCC and Historical DuPont and their affiliates were treated as related party transactions. Transactions between TDCC and Historical DuPont primarily consisted of the sale and procurement of certain raw materials that were consumed in each company's manufacturing process. Transactions between TDCC and Dow Inc. are treated as related party transactions for TDCC. See Note 21 for additional information.
Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless otherwise indicated, amounts and activity are presented on a continuing operations basis.
Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation and "Dow Silicones" means Dow Silicones Corporation, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.
Adoption of Accounting Standards
In the first quarter of 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", and the associated ASUs (collectively, "Topic 842"). The net impact to “Retained earnings” was an increase of $72 million and was primarily a result of the recognition of a deferred gain associated with a prior sale-leaseback transaction. See Note 13 for additional information.
Additionally, at January 1, 2019, certain nonconsolidated affiliates of the Company, which were subsequently distributed as part of the separation from DowDuPont, adopted ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" and the associated ASUs (collectively, "Topic 606"). The net impact to "Retained earnings" was a reduction of $183 million at January 1, 2019.
NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement," which is part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") disclosure framework project to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in the new guidance remove, modify and add certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements covered in Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement." The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. See Note 19 for additional information.
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract," which requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in Topic 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" and the associated ASUs (collectively “Topic 326”). The amendments replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. Accordingly, companies are required to consider forward-looking information to estimate credit losses expected to occur over the estimated life of an asset, including losses that may be incurred in future periods. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted at June 30, 2020
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes." The amendments simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740, "Income Taxes" and improve consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, with the amendments to be applied on a retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis, depending on the specific amendment. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments are intended to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on financial reporting. The new standard is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, with the adoption date being dependent upon the Company’s election. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
NOTE 3 – SEPARATION FROM DOWDUPONT
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont completed the previously announced separation of its materials science business. The separation was effected by way of a pro rata distribution of all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Dow Inc. common stock to DowDuPont stockholders of record as of the close of business, Eastern Time, on March 21, 2019 (the “Record Date”). The shareholders of record of DowDuPont received one share of Dow Inc. common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for every three shares of DowDuPont common stock, par value $0.01 per share, held as of the Record Date ("Distribution Ratio"). No fractional shares of Dow Inc. common stock were issued. Instead, cash in lieu of any fractional shares was paid to DowDuPont registered shareholders. The number of shares of Dow Inc. common stock issued on April 1, 2019 was 748.8 million shares.
On April 1, 2019, Dow Inc. received a cash contribution of $2,024 million from DowDuPont as part of the internal reorganization and business realignment steps between Dow Inc., TDCC and DowDuPont. Dow Inc. recognized a reduction to "Retained earnings" of $14,846 million in the second quarter of 2019 ($14,811 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019) as a result of the cash contribution, the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo, and other separation related adjustments. TDCC recognized a reduction to "Retained earnings" of $16,025 million in the second quarter of 2019 ($15,990 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019) as a result of the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo.
Receipt of ECP
As the receipt of ECP was accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control, the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the receipt of ECP from the closing of the Merger on August 31, 2017. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The ECP assets received and liabilities assumed were recorded at DowDuPont's historical cost basis.
Distribution of AgCo and SpecCo
Upon distribution, the Company retrospectively adjusted the previously issued consolidated financial statements and presented AgCo and SpecCo as discontinued operations based on the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-20 “Discontinued Operations.” The results of operations of AgCo and SpecCo are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and are summarized in the table that follows:

Agreements Related to the Separation and Distribution
In connection with the separation, Dow Inc. entered into certain agreements with DuPont and/or Corteva Inc. ("Corteva"), including the following: Separation and Distribution Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement and Employee Matters Agreement (collectively, the "Agreements"). In addition to establishing the terms of the separation, the Agreements provide a framework for Dow’s interaction with DuPont and Corteva after the separation and also provide for the allocation among Dow, DuPont and Corteva of assets, liabilities and obligations attributable to periods prior to, at and after the completion of the separation. The Agreements also contain certain indemnity and/or cross-indemnity provisions that are intended to set forth each party’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations for matters subject to indemnification. Except in certain instances, the parties’ indemnification obligations are uncapped. Certain indemnification obligations will be subject to reduction by insurance proceeds or other third-party proceeds of the indemnified party that reduces the amount of the loss. In addition, indemnifiable losses will be subject to, in certain cases, “de minimis” threshold amounts and, in certain cases, deductible amounts.
The impacts of indemnifications and other post-separation matters relating to the Agreements were primarily reflected in the consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. In the second quarter of 2019, the Company recorded pretax charges related to the Agreements of $24 million in "Integration and separation costs" and $52 million in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income of Dow Inc. and related to the Corporate segment. At June 30, 2020, the Company had assets of $48 million ($58 million at December 31, 2019) included in "Other current assets" and $32 million ($52 million at December 31, 2019) included in "Noncurrent receivables," and liabilities of $321 million ($352 million at December 31, 2019) included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $99 million ($96 million at December 31, 2019) included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc. related to the Agreements. Any adjustments to these assets and liabilities in subsequent periods will be recorded in Dow Inc.'s results of operations. In addition, the Company deferred approximately $400 million of the cash distribution received from DowDuPont at separation and recorded an associated liability in "Other noncurrent obligations," with an offset to "Retained earnings" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc. At June 30, 2020, $130 million ($130 million at December 31, 2019) of this liability was recorded in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $270 million ($270 million at December 31, 2019) was recorded in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets. The final resolution of this liability is uncertain and any subsequent adjustments to the carrying value of this liability will be reflected in equity of Dow Inc.
Integration and Separation Costs
Integration and separation costs, which reflect costs related to business separation activities, were $46 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $348 million and $324 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019. Integration and separation costs were $111 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC in the first six months of 2020, compared with $800 million and $776 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the first six months of 2019. Integration and separation costs related to business separation activities are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2020.
NOTE 4 – REVENUE
Revenue Recognition
The majority of Dow's revenue is derived from product sales. Dow's revenue related to product sales was 98 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 99 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (98 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019), with the remaining balance primarily related to the Company's insurance operations and licensing of patents and technologies. Product sales consist of sales of Dow's products to manufacturers and distributors and considers order confirmations or purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master supply agreements, to be contracts with a customer. Dow enters into licensing arrangements in which it licenses certain rights of its patents and technology to customers. Revenue from Dow’s licenses for patents and technology is derived from sales-based royalties and licensing arrangements based on billing schedules established in each contract.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. At June 30, 2020, Dow had unfulfilled performance obligations of $917 million ($826 million at December 31, 2019) related to the licensing of technology. Dow expects revenue to be recognized for the remaining performance obligations over the next seven years.
The remaining performance obligations are for product sales that have expected durations of one year or less, product sales of materials delivered through a pipeline for which Dow has elected the right to invoice practical expedient, or variable consideration attributable to royalties for licenses of patents and technology. Dow has received advance payments from customers related to long-term supply agreements that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract, with remaining contract terms that range up to 21 years. Dow will have rights to future consideration for revenue recognized when product is delivered to the customer. These payments are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
Disaggregation of Revenue
Dow disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by operating segment and business, as the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows.

Contract Assets and Liabilities
Dow receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets include amounts related to Dow's contractual right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are recognized in revenue when the performance obligations are met. "Contract liabilities - current" primarily reflects deferred revenue from prepayments from customers for product to be delivered in 12 months or less. "Contract liabilities - noncurrent" includes advance payments that the Company has received from customers related to long-term supply agreements and royalty payments that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract.
Revenue recognized in the first six months of 2020 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $80 million (approximately $110 million in the first six months of 2019). In the first six months of 2020, the amount of contract assets reclassified to receivables as a result of the right to the transaction consideration becoming unconditional was approximately $25 million ($15 million in the first six months of 2019).
The following table summarizes the contract assets and liabilities at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

In March 2020, The Kuwait Styrene Company K.S.C.C. paid a dividend of $42 million, reflected in "Earnings of nonconsolidated affiliates less than dividends received" in the consolidated statements of cash flows. In June 2020, EQUATE Petrochemical Company K.S.C.C. (“EQUATE”) and The Kuwait Olefins Company K.S.C.C. ("TKOC") paid dividends of $94 million and $69 million, respectively. At June 30, 2020, the Company had $109 million included in "Accounts and notes receivable - Other" in the consolidated balance sheets related to the Company's share of dividends declared but not paid by EQUATE and TKOC. At June 30, 2020, the Company had a negative investment balance in EQUATE of $226 million (negative $80 million at December 31, 2019), classified as "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
At June 30, 2020, the Company had a negative investment balance in Sadara Chemical Company (“Sadara”) of $105 million (zero at December 31, 2019) classified as “Other noncurrent obligations” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, primarily related to the Company’s share of Sadara’s accumulated other comprehensive loss from the first six months of 2020. The Company’s investment in Sadara was other-than-temporarily impaired in the fourth quarter of 2019 and Dow will continue to recognize its share of equity losses reported by Sadara due to funding commitments.

2020 Activity
In February 2020, the Company issued €2.25 billion aggregate principal amount of notes (“Euro Notes”). The Euro Notes included €1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 0.50 percent notes due 2027, €750 million aggregate principal amount of 1.125 percent notes due 2032 and €500 million aggregate principal amount of 1.875 percent notes due 2040. The Euro Notes have a weighted average coupon rate of approximately 1.0 percent. With the net proceeds from the issuance of the Euro Notes, Dow Silicones voluntarily repaid $750 million of principal under a certain third party credit agreement, ("Term Loan Facility”). In addition, the Company redeemed $1.25 billion of 3.0 percent notes issued by the Company with maturity in 2022. As a result, the Company recognized a pretax loss of $85 million on the early extinguishment of debt, included in “Sundry income (expense) – net” in the consolidated statements of income and related to the Corporate segment.
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company withdrew $800 million under various uncommitted bilateral credit arrangements, which were subsequently repaid in the second quarter of 2020.
In the first six months of 2020, the Company also issued an aggregate principal amount of $97 million of InterNotes®, and redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $96 million at maturity. In addition, the Company voluntarily repaid an aggregate principal amount of $200 million of InterNotes® with various maturities. As a result, the Company recognized a pretax loss of $1 million on the early extinguishment of debt, included in “Sundry income (expense) – net” in the consolidated statements of income and related to the Corporate segment. The Company also repaid approximately $26 million of long-term debt at maturity. Approximately $13 million of long-term debt was repaid by consolidated variable interest entities.
2019 Activity
In the first six months of 2019, the Company redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $80 million of InterNotes® at maturity. In addition, approximately $134 million of long-term debt (net of $16 million of issuances) was repaid by consolidated variable interest entities.
In May 2019, the Company issued $2 billion of senior unsecured notes in an offering under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. The offering included $750 million aggregate principal amount of 4.80 percent notes due 2049; $750 million aggregate principal amount of 3.625 percent notes due 2026; and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.15 percent notes due 2024. In the fourth quarter of 2019, TDCC launched exchange offers for the outstanding, unregistered senior notes for identical, registered notes under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Exchange Offers"). The Exchange Offers fulfilled the Company's obligations contained in the registration rights agreements entered into in connection with the issuance of the aforementioned notes.
In June 2019, the Company redeemed $1.5 billion of 4.25 percent notes issued by the Company with maturity in 2020. As a result, the Company recognized a pretax loss of $42 million on the early extinguishment of debt, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income and related to the Corporate segment.
Also, in the second quarter of 2019, Dow Silicones voluntarily repaid $2.5 billion of principal under the Term Loan Facility.

Debt Covenants and Default Provisions
There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to the Company's outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first six months of 2020. For additional information on the Company's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Environmental Matters
Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. At June 30, 2020, the Company had accrued obligations of $1,118 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $205 million for the remediation of Superfund sites. These obligations are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets. This is management’s best estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which the Company has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to approximately two times that amount. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, however, that the possibility is remote that costs in excess of the range disclosed will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. As new or additional information becomes available and/or certain spending trends become known, management will evaluate such information in determination of the current estimate of environmental liability. At December 31, 2019, the Company had accrued obligations of $1,155 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $207 million for the remediation of Superfund sites.
Litigation
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
A summary of Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation can be found in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Introduction
Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past four decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products. Union Carbide expects more asbestos-related suits to be filed against Union Carbide and Amchem in the future, and will aggressively defend or reasonably resolve, as appropriate, both pending and future claims.
Estimating the Asbestos-Related Liability
Since 2003, Union Carbide has engaged Ankura Consulting Group, LLC ("Ankura"), a third party actuarial specialist, to review Union Carbide's historical asbestos-related claim and resolution activity in order to assist Union Carbide's management in estimating the asbestos-related liability. Each year, Union Carbide requests Ankura to review its claim and resolution activity, including asbestos-related defense and processing costs, to determine the appropriateness of updating the most recent Ankura study.
Based on the review completed by Ankura in December 2019 and Union Carbide's internal review process, Union Carbide's total asbestos-related liability through the terminal year of 2049, including asbestos-related defense and processing costs, was $1,165 million at December 31, 2019, and was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and “Asbestos-related liabilities - noncurrent” in the consolidated balance sheets.
Each quarter, Union Carbide reviews claims filed, settled and dismissed, as well as average settlement and resolution costs by disease category. Union Carbide also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as the nature of pending claims, trial experience of Union Carbide and other asbestos defendants, current spending for defense and processing costs, significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, trends in the tort system, and their respective effects on expected future resolution costs. Union Carbide's management considers these factors in conjunction with the most recent Ankura study and determines whether a change in the estimate is warranted. Based on Union Carbide's review of 2020 activity, it was determined that no adjustment to the accrual was required at June 30, 2020.
Union Carbide’s total asbestos-related liability for pending and future claims and defense and processing costs was $1,133 million at June 30, 2020, and approximately 20 percent of the recorded claim liability related to pending claims and approximately 80 percent related to future claims.
Summary
The Company's management believes the amounts recorded by Union Carbide for the asbestos-related liability, including defense and processing costs, reflect reasonable and probable estimates of the liability based upon current, known facts. However, future events, such as the number of new claims to be filed and/or received each year, the average cost of defending and disposing of each such claim, as well as the numerous uncertainties surrounding asbestos litigation in the United States over a significant period of time, could cause the actual costs for Union Carbide to be higher or lower than those projected or those recorded. Any such events could result in an increase or decrease in the recorded liability.
Because of the uncertainties described above, Union Carbide cannot estimate the full range of the cost of resolving pending and future asbestos-related claims facing Union Carbide and Amchem. As a result, it is reasonably possible that an additional cost of disposing of Union Carbide's asbestos-related claims, including future defense and processing costs, could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and cash flows for a particular period and on the consolidated financial position.
Dow Silicones Chapter 11 Related Matters
A summary of the Dow Silicones Chapter 11 Related Matters can be found in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Introduction
In 1995, Dow Silicones, then a 50:50 joint venture between the Company and Corning Incorporated ("Corning"), voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in order to resolve Dow Silicones’ breast implant liabilities and related matters (the “Chapter 11 Proceeding”). Dow Silicones emerged from the Chapter 11 Proceeding on June 1, 2004 and is implementing the Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan provides funding for the resolution of breast implant and other product liability litigation covered by the Chapter 11 Proceeding and provided a process for the satisfaction of commercial creditor claims in the Chapter 11 Proceeding. As of June 1, 2016, Dow Silicones is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Breast Implant and Other Product Liability Claims
Under the Plan, a product liability settlement program administered by an independent claims office (the “Settlement Facility”) was created to resolve breast implant and other product liability claims. Dow Silicones has an obligation to fund the Settlement Facility and is expected to make further contributions after the Settlement Facility's existing funds are exhausted. At June 30, 2020, Dow Silicones and its insurers have made life-to-date payments of $1,762 million to the Settlement Facility and the Settlement Facility reported an unexpended balance of $69 million. The claim filing deadline passed in June 2019. All claims have been received by the Settlement Facility and are being processed. Based on the claims filed at and before the deadline, Dow Silicones estimates that it will be obligated to contribute an additional $160 million after the Settlement Facility balance is exhausted. The estimate was updated in the second quarter of 2020 with the assistance of a third party consultant, and the change in estimate primarily reflects decreased administrative costs compared with the previous estimate and an increase in investment income resulting from insurance proceeds.
Dow Silicones' liability for breast implant and other product liability claims ("Implant Liability") was $160 million at June 30, 2020 ($165 million at December 31, 2019), of which zero ($20 million at December 31, 2019) was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and $160 million ($145 million at December 31, 2019) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
Dow Silicones is not aware of circumstances that would change the factors used in estimating the Implant Liability and believes the recorded liability reflects the best estimate of the remaining funding obligations under the Plan; however, the estimate relies upon a number of significant assumptions, including: future acceptance rates, disease mix, and payment values will be materially consistent with historical experience; no material negative outcomes in future controversies or disputes over Plan interpretation will occur; and the Plan will not be modified. If actual outcomes related to any of these assumptions prove to be materially different, the future liability to fund the Plan may be materially different than the amount estimated.
Summary
The amounts recorded by Dow Silicones for the Chapter 11 related matters described above were based on current, known facts, which management believes reflect reasonable and probable estimates of the liability. However, future events could cause the actual costs for Dow Silicones to be higher or lower than those projected or those recorded. Any such events could result in an increase or decrease in the recorded liability.
Other Litigation Matters
In addition to the specific matters described above, the Company is party to a number of other claims and lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business with respect to product liability, patent infringement, employment matters, governmental tax and regulation disputes, contract and commercial litigation, and other actions. Certain of these actions purport to be class actions and seek damages in very large amounts. All such claims are being contested. The Company has an active risk management program consisting of numerous insurance policies secured from many carriers at various times. These policies may provide coverage that could be utilized to minimize the financial impact, if any, of certain contingencies described above. It is the opinion of the Company’s management that the possibility is remote that the aggregate of all such other claims and lawsuits will have a material adverse impact on the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company.
Indemnifications with Corning
In connection with the June 1, 2016 ownership restructure of Dow Silicones, the Company is indemnified by Corning for at least 50 percent of future losses associated with certain pre-closing liabilities, including the Implant Liability and certain environmental matters described in the preceding sections, subject to certain conditions and limits. The maximum amount of indemnified losses which may be recovered are subject to a cap that declines over time. The Company had indemnification assets of $100 million at June 30, 2020 ($100 million at December 31, 2019), of which $37 million ($37 million at December 31, 2019) was included in "Other current assets" and $63 million ($63 million at December 31, 2019) was included in "Noncurrent receivables" in the consolidated balance sheets. For additional information, see Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Patent Infringement Matter
On December 9, 2010, Dow filed suit in the Federal Court in Ontario, Canada ("Federal Court") alleging that Nova was infringing the Company's Canadian polyethylene patent 2,106,705. Nova counterclaimed on the grounds of invalidity and non-infringement. On June 29, 2017, the Federal Court issued a Confidential Supplemental Judgment, concluding that Nova must pay $645 million Canadian dollars (equivalent to $495 million U.S. dollars) to the Company, plus pre- and post-judgment interest, for which the Company received payment of $501 million from Nova on July 6, 2017. Although Nova is appealing portions of the damages judgment, certain portions of it are indisputable and will be owed to the Company regardless of the outcome of any further appeals by Nova. At June 30, 2020, the Company had $341 million ($341 million at December 31, 2019) included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the damages judgment. The Company is confident of its chances of defending the entire judgment on appeal, particularly the trial court's determinations on important factual issues, which will be accorded deferential review on appeal. For additional information, see Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Ethylene Asset Matter
On September 18, 2019, the Court of the Queen’s Bench in Alberta, Canada ("Court"), signed a judgment ordering Nova to pay the Company $1.43 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.08 billion U.S. dollars) by October 11, 2019, for damages the Company incurred through 2012 related to the companies’ jointly-owned ethylene asset in Joffre, Alberta, Canada. The Court, which initially ruled in June 2018, found that Nova failed to operate the ethylene asset at full capacity for more than ten years, and furthermore, that Nova violated several contractual agreements related to the Company receiving its share of the asset’s ethylene production. These actions resulted in reduced productivity and sales for the Company. Nova has appealed the judgment, however, certain portions of it are not in dispute and are owed to the Company regardless of the outcome of Nova's appeal. In October 2019, Nova paid $1.08 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $0.8 billion U.S. dollars) directly to the Company, and remitted $347 million Canadian dollars to the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") for the tax account of one of the Company's subsidiaries. The Company sought a refund of the entire amount remitted to the CRA. On March 31, 2020, the Company received the full refund from CRA, equivalent to $259 million U.S. dollars. In preparation for the June 2020 appellate hearing on the case, Nova provided the Court an updated schedule of the financial impact of the issues on appeal, which explained that even if Nova prevails on all appeal issues, the Company would still be entitled to retain an amount in excess of the gain recognized in 2019. As a result, the Company recorded an $18 million pretax gain in the second quarter of 2020, of which $12 million was included in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" and $6 million was included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income and related to the Packaging & Specialty Plastics segment. At June 30, 2020, $875 million ($893 million at December 31, 2019) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the Company's consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the damages judgment. Dow remains confident of its chances of defending the entire judgment on appeal, particularly the trial court's determinations on important factual and discretionary issues, which will be accorded deferential review on appeal.
Guarantees
The following table provides a summary of the final expiration, maximum future payments and recorded liability reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for guarantees:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Guarantees | Jun 30, 2020 | | | Dec 31, 2019 | | |
In millions | Final Expiration | Maximum Future Payments | Recorded Liability | Final Expiration | Maximum Future Payments | Recorded Liability |
Guarantees | 2023 | $ | 3,788 | | $ | 7 | | 2023 | $ | 3,952 | | $ | 10 | |
Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, committed accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others (via delivery of cash or other assets) if specified triggering events occur. With guarantees, such as commercial or financial contracts, non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation of the Company to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. The majority of the Company’s guarantees relate to debt of nonconsolidated affiliates, which have expiration dates ranging from less than one year to less than three years. The Company’s current expectation is that future payment or performance related to the non-performance of others is considered remote.
The Company has entered into guarantee agreements ("Guarantees") related to project financing for Sadara.

NOTE 21 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Effective with the separation from DowDuPont on April 1, 2019, TDCC became a wholly owned subsidiary of Dow Inc. and reports transactions with Dow Inc. as related party transactions. From the Merger date through March 31, 2019, TDCC reported transactions with DowDuPont and Historical DuPont and its affiliates as related party transactions.
TDCC
TDCC has committed to fund Dow Inc.'s dividends paid to common stockholders and share repurchases, as approved by Dow Inc.'s Board of Directors from time to time, as well as certain governance expenses. Funding is accomplished through intercompany loans. TDCC's Board of Directors reviews and determines a dividend distribution to Dow Inc. to settle the intercompany loans. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, TDCC declared and paid dividends to Dow Inc. of $529 million and $1,172 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, TDCC did not pay dividends to Dow Inc. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, TDCC's outstanding intercompany loan balance with Dow Inc. was insignificant.
DowDuPont
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and prior to the separation from DowDuPont, TDCC had committed to fund a portion of DowDuPont's dividends paid to common stockholders and certain governance expenses. In addition, share repurchases by DowDuPont were partially funded by TDCC through 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, TDCC declared and paid dividends to DowDuPont of $535 million.
Historical DuPont and its affiliates
Prior to the separation from DowDuPont, TDCC sold to and procured from Historical DuPont and its affiliates certain raw materials that were consumed in each company's manufacturing process.

NOTE 22 – SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS
Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT (for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the six months ended June 30, 2020) and pro forma Operating EBIT (for the six months ended June 30, 2019) as this is the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. The Company defines pro forma Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, plus pro forma adjustments, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT and pro forma Operating EBIT by segment include all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate. The Company also presents pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019 in this footnote as it is included in management's measure of segment performance and is regularly reviewed by the CODM. Pro forma net sales includes the impact of various manufacturing, supply and service related agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva in connection with the separation which provide for different pricing than the historical intercompany and intracompany pricing practices of TDCC and Historical DuPont.

NOTE 23 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 2, 2020, TDCC entered into a definitive agreement to sell its rail infrastructure assets and related equipment at six sites in the U.S. & Canada for expected cash proceeds in excess of $310 million. The assets are located at TDCC’s sites in Plaquemine and St. Charles, Louisiana; Freeport and Seadrift, Texas; and Fort Saskatchewan and Prentiss, Alberta, Canada. TDCC will also enter into long-term service agreements with the buyer for the continuation of certain rail-related services for TDCC's operations at these sites. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, and the Company expects to record a gain on the transaction.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont Inc. (“DowDuPont” and effective June 3, 2019, n/k/a DuPont de Nemours, Inc. or "DuPont") completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the “Company”), owning all of the outstanding common shares of TDCC. For filings related to the period commencing April 1, 2019 and thereafter, TDCC was deemed the predecessor to Dow Inc., and the historical results of TDCC are deemed the historical results of Dow Inc. for periods prior to and including March 31, 2019. As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted.
The separation was contemplated by the merger of equals transaction effective August 31, 2017, under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017. TDCC and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Historical DuPont”) each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont and, as a result, TDCC and Historical DuPont became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the “Merger”). Subsequent to the Merger, TDCC and Historical DuPont engaged in a series of internal reorganization and realignment steps to realign their businesses into three subgroups: agriculture, materials science and specialty products. Dow Inc. was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of DowDuPont to serve as the holding company for the materials science business.
As of the effective date and time of the distribution, DowDuPont does not beneficially own any equity interest in Dow and no longer consolidates Dow and its consolidated subsidiaries into its financial results. The consolidated financial results of Dow for all periods presented reflect the distribution of TDCC’s agricultural sciences business (“AgCo”) and specialty products business (“SpecCo”) as discontinued operations, as well as reflect the receipt of Historical DuPont’s ethylene and ethylene copolymers businesses (other than its ethylene acrylic elastomers business) (“ECP”) as a common control transaction from the closing of the Merger on August 31, 2017. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless otherwise indicated, amounts and activity are presented on a continuing operations basis.
Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the terms "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation, and "Dow Silicones" means Dow Silicones Corporation, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.
Items Affecting Comparability of Financial Results
As a result of the separation from DowDuPont, pro forma net sales and pro forma Operating EBIT are provided in this section, which were based on the consolidated financial statements of TDCC, adjusted to give effect to the separation from DowDuPont as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, pro forma adjustments have been made for (1) the margin impact of various manufacturing, supply and service related agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva, Inc. ("Corteva") in connection with the separation, which provide for different pricing than the historical intercompany and intracompany pricing practices of TDCC and Historical DuPont, and (2) the elimination of the impact of events directly attributable to the Merger, internal reorganization and business realignment, separation, distribution and other related transactions (e.g., one-time transaction costs). These adjustments impacted the consolidated results as well as the reportable segments. For further information on the unaudited pro forma financial information, please refer to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 3, 2019.
STATEMENT ON COVID-19, OIL PRICE VOLATILITY AND THIRD QUARTER OUTLOOK
Overview of Dow’s Response to COVID-19
The pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has impacted all geographic regions where Dow products are produced and sold. Financial markets were volatile towards the end of the first quarter and early in the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to uncertainty with respect to the severity and duration of the pandemic, coupled with fluctuations in crude oil prices due in part to the global spread of COVID-19. As the second quarter progressed, crude oil prices increased, driven by improved supply/demand fundamentals. Financial markets have also improved as economies in the U.S. and Western Europe have started to reopen.
The global, regional and local spread of COVID-19 resulted in significant global mitigation measures, including government-directed quarantines, social distancing and shelter-in-place mandates, travel restrictions and/or bans, and restricted access to certain corporate facilities and manufacturing sites. Most of the Company’s manufacturing facilities have been designated essential operations by local governments. As a result, nearly all of the Company’s manufacturing sites and facilities continue to operate and are doing so safely, having implemented social distancing and enhanced health, safety and sanitization measures as directed by Dow's regional Crisis Management Teams (“CMTs”). The CMTs continue to work closely with site leadership and are adjusting alert levels as warranted on a site by site basis. At the time of this filing, approximately half of Dow’s global workforce is working remotely. The CMTs have initiated the implementation of the Company’s comprehensive Return to Workplace plan that is tailored for each site and includes a number of health and safety measures to be followed in a gradual and phased approach. The Company is also encouraging its workforce to follow safety measures when away from work to help prevent community spread of COVID-19.
Dow’s materials science expertise and production capabilities are used to develop some of the most vital hygiene medical products and technologies to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, such as disinfectants, sanitizers, cleansers, plastics used in the production of disposable personal protective equipment for medical professionals, and memory foams for hospital beds. The Company has continued to look for ways to contribute time, talent and materials science expertise to help fight and combat the pandemic while opening some new opportunities for innovation and business. Dow’s contributions to fighting the COVID-19 pandemic include:
•The Company collaborated with nine key partners across a myriad of industries to develop and donate 100,000 isolation gowns to help equip frontline workers in Texas, Louisiana and Mexico.
•Dow, Whirlpool Corporation and Reynolds Consumer Products jointly developed a powered, air-purifying respirator which takes the place of a traditional medical face mask and face shield.
•Dow developed and shared an open source design for a simplified face shield and donated 100,000 face shields to hospitals in Michigan.
•Five Dow sites in the U.S., Europe and Latin America produced more than 200 metric tons of hand sanitizer, equivalent to more than 880,000 eight-ounce bottles, which were primarily donated to local health systems and government agencies.
•The Company committed $3 million to aid COVID-19 relief efforts, with donations going towards global relief organizations, as well as non-profits in communities where Dow operates.
During this public health crisis, the Company is focused on the health and safety of its employees, contractors, customers and suppliers around the world and maintaining safe and reliable operations of its manufacturing sites. Although supply disruptions and related logistical issues have posed challenges across all modes of transportation, the Company’s manufacturing sites have continued to operate during the COVID-19 pandemic, with no significant impact to manufacturing whether through shutdowns or shortages in labor, raw materials or personal protective equipment. Supply chain and logistical challenges are expected to ease through the remainder of 2020, absent significant impacts from COVID-19 infection resurgences.
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position and solid liquidity in the midst of the economic recession triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company started 2020 with significant committed liquidity facilities. As markets became more volatile and uncertain during the first quarter of 2020, the Company took proactive measures to further bolster liquidity by drawing down certain uncommitted credit facilities, which were subsequently repaid in the second quarter of 2020, and partially monetizing investments in company-owned life insurance policies. At June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $12 billion in committed forms of liquidity, including $3.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has no substantive long-term debt maturities until the second half of 2023.
Recognizing the significant impact the COVID-19 pandemic would have on demand in the second quarter of 2020, the Company took proactive actions to electively focus on cash and maintain financial strength with a continued emphasis on safe, reliable operations and disciplined capital allocation. Those actions included: further reducing the 2020 capital expenditure target to $1.25 billion; trimming operating expenses by $350 million; and unlocking another $500 million from working capital. The Company has also temporarily suspended share repurchases and delayed planned maintenance turnaround spending, where appropriate, without compromising safety or its ability to serve customer needs. In addition, the Company announced the temporary idling of select manufacturing facilities to balance production to demand across markets more severely affected by restrained economic activity. This included the idling of three polyethylene production units and two elastomers units; running Dow's polyurethanes assets, including propylene oxide and methylene diphenyl diisocyanate ("MDI"), at reduced operating rates; reducing siloxanes operating rates globally and extending a planned maintenance turnaround at a silicones production unit in Zhangjiagang, China, which has now restarted. Based on current demand, the polyethylene production units have also restarted. The Company continues to monitor demand in automotive and other durable good end-markets and as conditions improve in those end-markets, is bringing units online where needed.
Review of First Half 2020 Financial Impacts from COVID-19 and Third Quarter Outlook
The Company's sales declined 18 percent in the first six months of 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the global economy and supply/demand fundamentals. Demand remained strong in food packaging, health and hygiene, home care and pharma end-markets. Volume declined for products used in consumer durable good end-markets, including construction, furniture and bedding and automotive, with the most notable impacts in the Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure and Performance Materials & Coatings operating segments. Demand for products used in consumer durable goods remained lower through the second quarter largely due to the delayed restart in these industries from May to June.
Local prices declined in the first quarter and continued to decline in the second quarter of 2020, largely impacted by lower global energy prices. In March and April 2020, crude oil prices declined significantly, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with increased supply from oil producers. Declines in crude oil prices impact the pace of oil drilling in the U.S. & Canada, which makes natural gas, a significant by-product of oil drilling and the primary feedstock used in the U.S. by Dow and other ethylene producers, less cost advantaged. The Company has feedstock flexibility driven by manufacturing assets that have the ability to produce ethylene from natural gas liquids or crude oil-based feedstocks, significant naphtha-based production capabilities, as well as comprehensive financial and physical hedging programs. The Company’s feedstock flexibility, fully integrated feedstock position and differentiated product portfolio positions enable the Company to respond to the challenges from oil price volatility.
The Company experienced margin compression in the second quarter, largely due to lower global energy prices. In the latter half of the second quarter, crude oil prices increased as supply/demand fundamentals improved, driving higher feedstock costs, which should be beneficial to product prices and margins in the third quarter of 2020. See Results of Operations in this report for additional discussion of results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
The Company expects results of operations to improve sequentially as the gradual and uneven recovery progresses. The Company expects net sales to increase 5 to 10 percent sequentially, with increases in all geographic regions and all operating segments. Volume is expected to increase, driven by continued robust consumer demand for food packaging and health and hygiene applications; the initial indicators of recovery in consumer durable good end-markets such as automotive, construction and furniture and bedding; stable demand for solvents and surfactants used in cleaning products; and solid demand in do-it-yourself architectural coatings applications, partially offset by normal seasonality. Local price is also expected to increase sequentially as global energy prices recover and polyethylene price increases take hold. The Company expects margins to expand in the third quarter, driven by sales growth. This outlook assumes virus containment will continue to progress without significant infection resurgences and with continued reopening of economies, with recovery taking a stronger hold in Europe and U.S. & Canada in the third quarter.
The Company will continue to focus on a disciplined approach to cash generation, capital allocation and structural cost improvements, which will serve as a solid foundation for the Company to weather the downturn and capture value as markets lift. In addition to the actions announced in the second quarter, the Company will also increase its 2020 operating expense reduction from $350 million to $500 million through additional structural cost interventions. The Company will also initiate a restructuring program in the third quarter, targeting more than $300 million in annualized Operating EBITDA1 benefit by the end of 2021. This program includes a 6 percent reduction in Dow’s global workforce as well as actions to exit uncompetitive assets. These actions are necessary to maintain competitiveness while the economic recovery gains traction.
Dow has significant addressable market opportunities that are expected to drive growth as the economy recovers. Global economic indicators and end-markets have begun to show improvement, and Dow will continue to benefit from its unique competitive advantages – including its feedstock flexibility, extensive materials portfolio and geographic end-market diversity.
At the time of this filing, the ultimate severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and oil price volatility cannot be reasonably estimated. The COVID-19 pandemic has had and could continue to have a substantial negative impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first six months of 2020 and the additional risks associated with these conditions are more fully discussed in this report in Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors. The Company is actively monitoring for potential financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and oil price volatility, including, but not limited to: gauging the financial health of its customers; assessing liquidity; evaluating the recoverability of its assets; enhancing cyber security monitoring; and evaluating ongoing appropriateness of its estimates.
1. Operating EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Dow defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the U.S. The Company continues to assess the provisions and potential impacts of this legislation; however, there have been no significant impacts to the Company's results of operations or financial position resulting from the CARES Act in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
OVERVIEW
The following is a summary of the results from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020:
•The Company reported net sales in the second quarter of 2020 of $8.4 billion, down 24 percent from $11.0 billion in the second quarter of 2019, with declines across all geographic regions and operating segments. The sales decline was driven by both local price and volume declines.
•Local price decreased 14 percent compared with the same period last year, primarily in response to lower global energy prices, with double-digit declines in all geographic regions. Local price declined in Packaging & Specialty Plastics (down 22 percent), Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure (down 9 percent) and Performance Materials & Coatings (down 6 percent).
•Volume decreased 9 percent compared with the second quarter of 2019. Packaging & Specialty Plastics volume was flat. Volume decreased in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure (down 18 percent) and Performance Materials & Coatings (down 14 percent). Volume declined in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific (up 3 percent).
•Currency had an unfavorable impact of 1 percent on net sales in all operating segments and geographic regions, except U.S. & Canada.
•Research and development ("R&D") expenses were $182 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $208 million in the second quarter of 2019. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $357 million and $356 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $422 million and $418 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019. R&D and SG&A expenses decreased primarily due to cost reductions.
•Integration and separation costs were $46 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $348 million and $324 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019, reflecting the wind-down of business separation activities.
•Equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was $95 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $15 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower equity earnings from the Kuwait joint ventures due to margin compression stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.
•Sundry income (expense) - net for Dow Inc. and TDCC was income of $53 million and income of $51 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2020, compared with expense of $1 million for Dow Inc. and income of $109 million for TDCC in the second quarter of 2019. Sundry income (expense) - net for Dow Inc. increased primarily due to one-time charges in the second quarter of 2019 for post-closing adjustments related to a previous divestiture and agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva as part of the separation and distribution, which did not impact TDCC.
•Net income (loss) available for Dow Inc. and TDCC common stockholder(s) was a loss of $225 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with income of $75 million and $202 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019. Earnings (loss) per share for Dow Inc. was a loss per share of $0.31 in the second quarter of 2020, compared with earnings per share of $0.10 in the second quarter of 2019.
•On April 9, 2020, Dow Inc. announced that its Board of Directors ("Board") declared a dividend of $0.70 per share, which was paid on June 12, 2020, to shareholders of record as of May 29, 2020.
•Dow Inc. did not repurchase any of the Company's common stock in the second quarter of 2020.
•In May 2020, the Company’s global headquarters community of Midland, Michigan, experienced widespread devastation caused by heavy rain and two dam failures, which led to extensive flooding and damage to homes and businesses in the area. The Company’s manufacturing facilities were not significantly impacted by the flooding. In response to this natural disaster, Dow pledged $1 million in financial support for immediate relief and long-term recovery efforts associated with the impact of the flooding and its aftermath.
•In June 2020, the Company launched Dow ACTs (Advocacy, Community and Talent), a strategic framework that outlines a new set of actions Dow will take to support inclusion and advance anti-racism. In addition, Dow pledged $5 million over the next five years to help advance racial equality and social justice.
•In June 2020, Dow announced new sustainability targets, which align to and build upon its 2025 Sustainability Goals, including targets to Protect the Climate, Stop the Waste and Close the Loop. By 2030, Dow expects to reduce its net annual carbon emissions by five million metric tons, or 15 percent from its 2020 baseline. Additionally, Dow intends to be carbon neutral by 2050, in alignment with the Paris Agreement. By 2030, Dow plans to help stop the waste by enabling one million metric tons of plastic to be collected, reused or recycled through its direct actions and partnerships. By 2035, Dow will help close the loop with a target to have 100 percent of its products sold into packaging applications be reusable or recyclable.
In addition to the highlights above, the following event occurred subsequent to the second quarter of 2020:
•On July 2, 2020, TDCC entered into a definitive agreement to sell its rail infrastructure assets and related equipment at six sites in the U.S. & Canada for expected cash proceeds in excess of $310 million. The assets are located at Dow’s sites in Plaquemine and St. Charles, Louisiana; Freeport and Seadrift, Texas; and Fort Saskatchewan and Prentiss, Alberta, Canada. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, and the Company expects to record a gain on the transaction.

Cost of Sales
COS was $7.6 billion in the second quarter of 2020, down from $9.4 billion in the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower feedstock and other raw material costs and decreased sales volume. Operating rates were lower in the second quarter of 2020, as the Company temporarily idled certain manufacturing facilities and selectively adjusted operating rates at other facilities to balance production to demand. For the first six months of 2020, COS was $15.8 billion, down from $18.6 billion in the first six months of 2019, primarily due to lower feedstock and other raw material costs and decreased sales volume. COS as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of 2020 was 91.1 percent (85.5 percent in the second quarter of 2019) and 87.4 percent for the first six months of 2020 (84.4 percent for the first six months of 2019).
Research and Development Expenses
R&D expenses totaled $182 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $208 million in the second quarter of 2019. R&D expenses for the first six months of 2020 were $361 million, down from $398 million in the first six months of 2019. R&D expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased primarily due to cost reductions and lower performance-based compensation costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Dow Inc.
SG&A expenses were $357 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $422 million in the second quarter of 2019.

SG&A expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased compared with the same periods last year primarily due to cost reductions, lower performance-based compensation costs, and the recovery of legal costs related to the Nova Chemicals Corporation ("Nova") ethylene asset matter. SG&A expenses were also favorably impacted in the first six months of 2020 by the reversal of a bad debt reserve related to an arbitration judgment.
TDCC
SG&A expenses were $356 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $418 million in the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, SG&A expenses were $690 million, down from $866 million in the first six months of 2019.

Restructuring and Asset Related Charges - Net
DowDuPont Cost Synergy Program
In September and November 2017, DowDuPont approved post-merger restructuring actions under the DowDuPont Cost Synergy Program (the "Synergy Program") which was designed to integrate and optimize the organization following the Merger and in preparation for the business separations. The restructuring charges below reflect charges from continuing operations. The final charges related to the Synergy Program were incurred in the first quarter of 2020 and the Company expects cash expenditures related to the Synergy Program to be substantially complete by the end of 2020.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company did not record any pretax restructuring charges. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $90 million for severance and related benefit costs.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $59 million, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $25 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $29 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $5 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $203 million, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $77 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $105 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $21 million.
Asset Related Charges
The Company recognized additional pretax impairment charges of $6 million and $12 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, related to capital additions made to a biopolymers manufacturing facility in Santa Vitoria, Minas Gerais, Brazil, which was impaired in 2017 (charges of $6 million and $18 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019). The impairment charges were related to the Packaging & Specialty Plastics segment. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for details on the Company's restructuring and asset related charges, including charges by segment.
Integration and Separation Costs
Integration and separation costs, which reflect costs related to business separation activities, were $46 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $348 million and $324 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019. In the first six months of 2020, integration and separation costs were $111 million, down from $800 million and $776 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the first six months of 2019. Further decreases in integration and separation costs are expected as business separation activities wind down. Integration and separation costs are related to Corporate.
Equity in Losses of Nonconsolidated Affiliates
The Company's share of equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was $95 million in the second quarter of 2020, up from losses of $15 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to margin compression at the Kuwait joint ventures and higher equity losses from Sadara Chemical Company ("Sadara") which were partially offset by improved results at the Thai joint ventures. Equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was $184 million in the first six months of 2020, compared with $29 million in the first six months of 2019, primarily due to lower equity earnings from the Kuwait and Thai joint ventures and higher equity losses from Sadara. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Sundry Income (Expense) – Net
Sundry income (expense) – net includes a variety of income and expense items such as foreign currency exchange gains and losses, dividends from investments, gains and losses on sales of investments and assets, non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit plan credits or costs, and certain litigation matters.
Dow Inc.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, "Sundry income (expense) - net" was income of $53 million compared with expense of $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The second quarter of 2020 included a $6 million gain related to the Nova ethylene asset matter (related to Packaging & Specialty Plastics), non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and foreign currency exchange losses. The second quarter of 2019 included a $58 million loss on post-closing adjustments related to a previous divestiture, a $52 million charge associated with agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva and a $44 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (all related to Corporate), which were partially offset by non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and foreign currency exchange gains. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, "Sundry income (expense) - net" was expense of $28 million compared with income of $68 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. In addition to the items previously disclosed, "Sundry income (expense) - net" for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included an $86 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (related to Corporate). See Notes 3, 11, 16 and 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
TDCC
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, "Sundry income (expense) - net" was income of $51 million compared with income of $109 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The second quarter of 2020 included a $6 million gain related to the Nova ethylene asset matter (related to Packaging & Specialty Plastics), non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and foreign currency exchange losses. The second quarter of 2019 included a $44 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt and a gain of $14 million on post-closing adjustments related to a previous divestiture (both related to Corporate), which were partially offset by non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and foreign currency exchange gains. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, "Sundry income (expense) - net" was expense of $31 million compared with income of $178 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. In addition to the items previously disclosed, "Sundry income (expense) - net" for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included an $86 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (related to Corporate). See Notes 11, 16 and 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Interest Expense and Amortization of Debt Discount
Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $200 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $237 million and $249 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019. Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $415 million in the first six months of 2020, down from $478 million and $490 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the first six months of 2019. The decreases are primarily due to the redemption of long-term debt in 2019.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most earnings from the Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2020 for Dow Inc. and TDCC was negative 18.6 percent, compared with 58.1 percent and 36.5 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, the effective tax rate for Dow Inc. and TDCC was 80.8 percent, compared with 52.0 percent and 41.6 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, for the first six months of 2019. The tax rate for Dow Inc. and TDCC in the second quarter and first six months of 2020 was unfavorably impacted primarily by equity losses and geographic mix of earnings and, to a lesser extent, non-deductible restructuring costs and an increase in tax reserves. The tax rate for Dow Inc. and TDCC in the second quarter of 2019 was unfavorably impacted by non-deductible restructuring costs and was favorably impacted as a result of a change in deferred taxes related to fixed assets. The tax rate for the first six months of 2019 was unfavorably impacted by tax impacts related to spin preparation activities and favorably impacted by tax benefits related to the issuance of stock-based compensation and deferred tax remeasurement in foreign jurisdictions.
Income from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax was $445 million for the first six months of 2019, related to the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo to DowDuPont as a result of the separation. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests from continuing operations was $8 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $15 million in the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests from continuing operations was $27 million, compared with $47 million for the same period last year.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests from discontinued operations was $13 million for the first six months of 2019, related to the distribution of AgCo and SpecCo to DowDuPont as a result of the separation. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Following the separation from DowDuPont, TDCC's common shares are owned solely by Dow Inc.
SEGMENT RESULTS
Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and the three months ended June 30, 2019) and pro forma Operating EBIT (for the six months ended June 30, 2019) as this is the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. The Company defines pro forma Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, plus pro forma adjustments, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT and pro forma Operating EBIT by segment include all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate. The Company also presents pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as it is included in management's measure of segment performance and is regularly reviewed by the CODM. Pro forma net sales includes the impact of various manufacturing, supply and service related agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva in connection with the separation from DowDuPont which provide for different pricing than the historical intercompany and intracompany pricing practices of TDCC and Historical DuPont. See Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for reconciliations of these measures and a summary of the pro forma adjustments impacting segment measures for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

1. As reported net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Packaging & Specialty Plastics net sales were $4,001 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 23 percent from net sales of $5,205 million in the second quarter of 2019, with local price down 22 percent, an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent, primarily in EMEAI, and volume flat. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, driven by lower global energy prices and reduced polyethylene pricing. Price declines were reported in Hydrocarbons & Energy as prices for co-products are generally correlated to Brent crude oil prices, which, on average, declined 51 percent compared with the second quarter of 2019, as well as lower cracker co-product prices due to weak end-market demand. Volume was mixed by geographic region as increases in Asia Pacific and EMEAI were offset by declines in U.S. & Canada and Latin America. Packaging and Specialty Plastics reported volume growth in flexible food and specialty packaging, industrial and consumer packaging and health and hygiene applications, which was offset by reduced demand for functional polymers used in durable good end-markets, notably automotive, infrastructure and construction.
Operating EBIT was $318 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 59 percent from Operating EBIT of $768 million in the second quarter of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression in both businesses, driven by lower demand in durable good end-markets and reduced equity earnings due to lower integrated olefin and aromatics margins at the Kuwait and Sadara joint ventures, which more than offset improvement at the Thai joint ventures. These declines more than offset cost reductions as well as demand growth and margin improvement in packaging applications.
Packaging & Specialty Plastics net sales were $8,610 million in the first six months of 2020, down 17 percent from net sales and pro forma net sales of $10,343 million in the first six months of 2019, with local price down 16 percent, an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent, primarily in EMEAI, and volume flat. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, driven by reduced polyethylene prices and lower global energy prices. Price declines were reported in Hydrocarbons & Energy as prices for co-products are generally correlated to Brent crude oil prices, which, on average, declined 36 percent compared with the first six months of 2019. Volume decreased in Hydrocarbons & Energy, primarily in U.S. & Canada and Asia Pacific, more than offsetting increases in EMEAI. Volume increased in Packaging and Specialty Plastics in Asia Pacific, Latin America and EMEAI, partially offset by declines in U.S. & Canada primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating EBIT was $898 million in the first six months of 2020, down 38 percent from pro forma Operating EBIT of $1,458 million in the first six months of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression in both businesses and reduced equity earnings due to margin compression at the Kuwait and Sadara joint ventures. These declines more than offset cost reductions.

1. As reported net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $2,417 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 28 percent from $3,342 million in the second quarter of 2019, with volume down 18 percent, a decline in local price of 9 percent and an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent. Volume decreased in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals and Industrial Solutions and in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific, reflecting the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals volume decreased primarily due to weak demand in consumer durable good end-markets, notably construction, furniture and bedding and automotive. Volume decreased in Industrial Solutions as improved demand for pharma and home care applications was more than offset by declines in industrial and oil applications and consumer textiles. Local price decreased in both businesses and in all geographic regions. The decrease in local price was primarily driven by lower global energy costs and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on supply/demand fundamentals.
Operating EBIT was a loss of $220 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with Operating EBIT of $154 million in the second quarter of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to demand destruction, margin compression and lower equity earnings from the Kuwait joint ventures.
Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $5,462 million in the first six months of 2020, down 20 percent from net sales of $6,822 million in the first six months of 2019. Net sales decreased 20 percent compared with pro forma net sales of $6,831 million in the first six months of 2019, driven by a decrease in volume of 10 percent, a decline in local price of 9 percent and an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent. Volume declined in both businesses and in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific, which was flat. Volume decreased in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals in all geographic regions and was attributable to weaker demand for products used in consumer durable good end-markets, including construction, furniture and bedding, and automotive, along with lower demand for aircraft deicing applications. Volume decreased in Industrial Solutions due to weakened demand for consumer durable goods and oil and gas and industrial applications, which was offset by stronger demand in pharma, cleaning and home care applications. Industrial Solutions volume declined in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific. Local price decreased in both businesses and all geographic regions. The decrease in local price was primarily driven by lower global energy and raw material costs.
Operating EBIT was a loss of $45 million in the first six months of 2020, compared with pro forma Operating EBIT of $431 million in the first six months of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased as a result of margin compression, lower equity earnings from the Kuwait joint ventures and softer demand, which was partially offset by lower planned maintenance turnaround costs.

1. As reported net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Performance Materials & Coatings net sales were $1,855 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 21 percent from net sales of $2,356 million in the second quarter of 2019, with volume down 14 percent, local price down 6 percent, and an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent. Volume declined across all geographic regions, reflecting the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumer Solutions volume decreased as growth in home care applications was more than offset by lower demand for products used in automotive, construction and personal care end-markets as consumer activities and buying patterns were limited by the COVID-19 pandemic. Volume declined in Coatings & Performance Monomers primarily due to lower demand for industrial coatings, which more than offset growth for architectural coatings in U.S. & Canada. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions. Local price decreased in Coatings & Performance Monomers due to weaker supply/demand fundamentals. Consumer Solutions local price decreased primarily due to lower pricing in siloxanes across all geographic regions due to weaker supply/demand fundamentals.
Operating EBIT was $27 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 87 percent from Operating EBIT of $214 million in the second quarter of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression in siloxanes and lower demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Performance Materials & Coatings net sales were $3,920 million in the first six months of 2020, down 15 percent from net sales of $4,638 million in the first six months of 2019. Net sales decreased 16 percent compared with pro forma net sales of $4,676 million in the same quarter last year, with volume down 8 percent, local price down 7 percent, and an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent. Volume declines in Asia Pacific, EMEAI and U.S. & Canada, which reflected the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, were partially offset by volume growth in Latin America. Consumer Solutions volume decreased due to lower demand in Asia Pacific, EMEAI and U.S. & Canada, partially offset by demand growth in upstream siloxanes in Latin America. Coatings & Performance Monomers volume decreased in Asia Pacific, EMEAI and Latin America primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was partially offset by strong demand for home improvement applications in U.S. & Canada. Local price decreased in both businesses and all geographic regions. Consumer Solutions local price declined primarily in upstream siloxanes due to weak supply/demand fundamentals. Local price decreased in Coatings & Performance Monomers in response to lower feedstock and other raw material costs.
Operating EBIT was $189 million in the first six months of 2020, down 61 percent from pro forma Operating EBIT of $485 million in the first six months of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression in siloxanes and lower demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating EBIT was a loss of $142 million in the first six months of 2020, compared with a pro forma Operating EBIT loss of $172 million in the first six months of 2019. Operating EBIT improved primarily due to cost reductions and stranded cost removal throughout 2019.
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3,724 million at June 30, 2020 and $2,367 million at December 31, 2019, of which $1,186 million at June 30, 2020 and $986 million at December 31, 2019 was held by subsidiaries in foreign countries, including United States territories. For each of its foreign subsidiaries, Dow makes an assertion regarding the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the balance available to be repatriated to the United States.
The cash held by foreign subsidiaries for permanent reinvestment is generally used to finance the subsidiaries' operational activities and future foreign investments. Dow has the ability to repatriate additional funds to the U.S., which could result in an adjustment to the tax liability for foreign withholding taxes, foreign and/or U.S. state income taxes and the impact of foreign currency movements. During 2020, Dow has repatriated and expects to continue repatriating certain funds from its non-U.S. subsidiaries that are not needed to finance local operations or separation activities; however, these particular repatriation activities have not and are not expected to result in a significant incremental tax liability to the Company.
The Company's cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized in the following table:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased in the first six months of 2020 compared with the first six months of 2019. The improvement was primarily due to improvements in working capital, a decrease in performance-based compensation payments, a cash receipt for the refund of withholding tax related to the Nova ethylene asset matter and an increase in advance payments from customers, which were partially offset by a decrease in dividends received from nonconsolidated affiliates.

2. The increase in days sales in inventory was primarily due to a decrease in COS, which more than offset a decrease in average inventory.
3. The increase in days payables outstanding was primarily due to a decrease in COS and a decrease in the change in inventory, which more than offset a decrease in average accounts payable.
Cash used for operating activities from discontinued operations in the first six months of 2020 decreased compared with cash provided by operating activities from discontinued operations in the first six months of 2019 due to the separation of AgCo and SpecCo on April 1, 2019. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities from continuing operations in the first six months of 2020 was primarily for capital expenditures, purchases of investments and investments in and loans to nonconsolidated affiliates (related to Sadara), which were partially offset by proceeds from sales and maturities of investments, and included partial monetization of the Company's investment in company-owned life insurance policies. Cash used for investing activities from continuing operations in the first six months of 2019 was primarily for capital expenditures, purchases of investments and investments in and loans to nonconsolidated affiliates (related to Sadara), which were partially offset by proceeds from sales and maturities of investments.
The Company's capital expenditures, including capital expenditures of consolidated variable interest entities, were $668 million in the first six months of 2020, compared with $912 million in the first six months of 2019. In April 2020, the Company reduced its capital expenditure target and expects full year capital spending in 2020 to be approximately $1.25 billion. The Company will adjust its spending through the year as economic conditions develop.
In the first six months of 2020, the Company loaned $236 million to Sadara. The Company expects to loan Sadara up to $500 million in 2020. Due to the potential for Dow to continue providing financial support to Sadara, the Company will continue to recognize its share of equity losses reported by Sadara.
Cash used in investing activities from discontinued operations in the first six months of 2019 was primarily for capital expenditures, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of property and businesses and proceeds from sales of ownership interests in nonconsolidated affiliates.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash used for financing activities from continuing operations in the first six months of 2020 included proceeds from issuance of long-term debt and changes in short-term notes payable, which were partially offset by payments on long-term debt. In addition, Dow Inc. included cash outflows for dividends paid to stockholders and purchases of treasury stock and TDCC included cash outflows for dividends paid to Dow Inc. Cash used for financing activities from continuing operations in the first six months of 2019 included payments on long-term debt and dividends paid to DowDuPont, which were partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. In addition, Dow Inc. received cash as part of the separation from DowDuPont, which more than offset dividends paid to common stockholders and repurchases of common stock. TDCC was further impacted by the change in the note payable with Dow Inc. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to the issuance and retirement of debt.
Cash used for financing activities from discontinued operations in the first six months of 2019 primarily related to distributions to noncontrolling interests and employee taxes paid for share-based payment arrangements.
Dow Inc. Non-GAAP Cash Flow Measures
Free Cash Flow
Dow defines free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities - continuing operations, less capital expenditures. Under this definition, free cash flow represents the cash generated by the Company from operations after investing in its asset base. Free cash flow, combined with cash balances and other sources of liquidity, represents the cash available to fund obligations and provide returns to shareholders. Free cash flow is an integral financial measure used in the Company's financial planning process.
Operating EBITDA and Pro Forma Operating EBITDA
Dow defines Operating EBITDA (for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the six months ended June 30, 2020) as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items. Pro forma Operating EBITDA (for the six months ended June 30, 2019) is defined as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, plus pro forma adjustments, excluding the impact of significant items.
Cash Flow Conversion (Operating EBITDA or Pro Forma Operating EBITDA to Cash Flow From Operations)
Dow defines cash flow conversion (Operating EBITDA or pro forma Operating EBITDA to cash flow from operations) as cash flows from operating activities - continuing operations, divided by Operating EBITDA or pro forma Operating EBITDA. Management believes cash flow conversion is an important financial metric as it helps the Company determine how efficiently it is converting its earnings to cash flow.
These financial measures are not recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as alternatives to U.S. GAAP financial measures of performance. All companies do not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner and, accordingly, Dow's definitions may not be consistent with the methodologies used by other companies.

See Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Liquidity & Financial Flexibility
The Company’s primary source of incremental liquidity is cash flows from operating activities. The generation of cash from operations and the Company's ability to access capital markets is expected to meet the Company’s cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, debt maturities, contributions to pension plans, dividend distributions to stockholders, share repurchases and other needs. In addition to cash from operating activities, the Company’s current liquidity sources also include TDCC's U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs, committed and uncommitted credit facilities, a committed accounts receivable facility, a U.S. retail note program (“InterNotes®”) and other debt markets.
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position and solid liquidity in the midst of the economic recession triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company started 2020 with significant committed liquidity facilities. As markets became more volatile and uncertain during the first quarter of 2020, the Company took proactive measures to further bolster liquidity by drawing down certain uncommitted credit facilities, which were subsequently repaid in the second quarter of 2020, and partially monetizing investments in company-owned life insurance policies. At June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $12 billion in committed forms of liquidity, which included $3.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents. The Company also has no substantive long-term debt maturities until the second half of 2023. Additional details on sources of liquidity are as follows:
Commercial Paper
TDCC issues promissory notes under its U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs. TDCC had $500 million of commercial paper outstanding at June 30, 2020 ($151 million at December 31, 2019). TDCC maintains access to the commercial paper market at competitive rates. Amounts outstanding under TDCC's commercial paper programs during the period may be greater, or less than, the amount reported at the end of the period. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, TDCC issued approximately $500 million of commercial paper.
Committed Credit Facilities
The Company also has the ability to access liquidity through TDCC's committed and available credit facilities. At June 30, 2020, TDCC had total committed credit facilities of $8.7 billion and available credit facilities of $7.4 billion. In the first quarter of 2020, Dow Silicones voluntarily repaid $750 million of principal under a certain third party credit agreement. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on committed and available credit facilities.
Committed Accounts Receivable Facility
In addition to the above committed credit facilities, the Company maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in North America where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to $900 million, may be sold at any point in time. For additional information, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Company-Owned Life Insurance
The Company has investments in company-owned life insurance ("COLI") policies, which are recorded at their cash surrender value as of each balance sheet date. The Company has the ability to monetize its investment in its COLI policies as an additional source of liquidity. At June 30, 2020, the Company had monetized $293 million of its existing COLI policies' value ($85 million at December 31, 2019). See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Uncommitted Credit Facilities
Dow has entered into various uncommitted bilateral credit arrangements as a potential source of excess liquidity. These lines can be used to support short-term liquidity needs and for general purposes, including letters of credit. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company took proactive measures to further bolster liquidity by drawing down certain uncommitted credit facilities, which were subsequently repaid in the second quarter. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Debt
As the Company continues to maintain its strong balance sheet and financial flexibility, management is focused on net debt (a non-GAAP financial measure), as the Company believes this is the best representation of its financial leverage at this point in time. As shown in the following table, net debt is equal to total gross debt minus "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Marketable securities." At June 30, 2020, net debt as a percent of total capitalization increased to 51.4 percent and 50.0 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with 50.9 percent and 49.6 percent at December 31, 2019.

Net debt as a percent of total capitalization | 51.4 | % | 50.9 | % | 50.0 | % | 49.6 | % |
In February 2020, the Company issued €2.25 billion aggregate principal amount of notes (“Euro Notes”). The Euro Notes include €1 billion aggregate principal amount of 0.50 percent notes due 2027, €750 million aggregate principal amount of 1.125 percent notes due 2032 and €500 million aggregate principal amount of 1.875 percent notes due 2040. The Euro Notes have a weighted average coupon rate of approximately 1.0 percent. In addition, the Company redeemed $1.25 billion of 3.0 percent notes issued by the Company with maturity in 2022.
The Company may at any time repurchase certain debt securities in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions subject to: the applicable terms under which any such debt securities were issued, certain internal approvals of the Company, and applicable laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdiction in which any such potential transactions might take place. This in no way obligates the Company to make any such repurchases nor should it be considered an offer to do so.
TDCC's public debt instruments and primary, private credit agreements contain, among other provisions, certain customary restrictive covenant and default provisions. TDCC's most significant debt covenant with regard to its financial position is the obligation to maintain the ratio of its consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization at no greater than 0.65 to 1.00 at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of loans under the Five Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Revolving Credit Agreement") equals or exceeds $500 million. The ratio of TDCC's consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement was 0.53 to 1.00 at June 30, 2020. Management believes TDCC was in compliance with all of its covenants and default provisions at June 30, 2020. For information on TDCC's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to TDCC’s outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first six months of 2020.
While taking into consideration the current economic environment, management expects that the Company will continue to have sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility to meet all of its business obligations.
Credit Ratings
At June 30, 2020, TDCC's credit ratings were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Credit Ratings | Long-Term Rating | Short-Term Rating | Outlook |
Standard & Poor’s | BBB- | A-3 | Stable |
Moody’s Investors Service | Baa2 | P-2 | Stable |
Fitch Ratings | BBB+ | F2 | Negative |
On April 9, 2020, S&P announced a credit rating change for Dow from BBB and A-2 to BBB- and A-3, maintaining stable outlook. The decision was made as part of S&P’s broader review of the chemicals sector, in light of the global impact of COVID-19 and lower oil prices. On April 13, 2020, Fitch re-affirmed Dow’s BBB+ and F2 rating, and revised its outlook to negative from stable. The decision was made as part of Fitch’s annual review process.
Downgrades in TDCC's credit ratings will increase borrowing costs on certain indentures and could impact its ability to access debt capital markets.
Dividends
Dow Inc.
On February 13, 2020, Dow Inc. announced that its Board declared a dividend of $0.70 per share, which was paid on March 13, 2020, to shareholders of record as of February 28, 2020. On April 9, 2020, Dow Inc. announced that its Board declared a dividend of $0.70 per share, which was paid on June 12, 2020, to shareholders of record as of May 29, 2020.
TDCC
Effective with the separation from DowDuPont on April 1, 2019, TDCC became a wholly owned subsidiary of Dow Inc. TDCC has committed to fund Dow Inc.'s dividends paid to common stockholders and share repurchases, as approved by Dow Inc.'s Board from time to time, as well as certain governance expenses. Funding is accomplished through intercompany loans. TDCC's Board of Directors reviews and determines a dividend distribution to Dow Inc. to settle the intercompany loans. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, TDCC declared and paid a dividend to Dow Inc. of $529 million ($1,172 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020). At June 30, 2020, TDCC's intercompany loan balance with Dow Inc. was insignificant. See Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Share Repurchase Program
On April 1, 2019, Dow Inc.'s Board ratified the share repurchase program originally approved on March 15, 2019, authorizing up to $3.0 billion to be spent on the repurchase of the Company's common stock, with no expiration date. The Company did not repurchase any of its common stock in the second quarter of 2020 (repurchased $125 million of the Company's common stock in the six months ended June 30, 2020). At June 30, 2020, approximately $2.4 billion of the share repurchase program authorization remained available for repurchases. At this time, Dow Inc. does not expect to repurchase additional shares in 2020, but will continue to evaluate as the year progresses.
Pension Plans
The Company has both funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans that cover employees in the United States and a number of other countries. The Company's funding policy is to contribute to funded plans when pension laws and/or economics either require or encourage funding. The Company expects to contribute approximately $290 million to its pension plans in 2020, of which $112 million has been contributed through June 30, 2020. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for additional information concerning the Company's pension plans.
Restructuring
The activities related to the Synergy Program are expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $100 million, primarily through the end of 2020, consisting of severance and related benefit costs and costs associated with exit and disposal activities, including environmental remediation (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company expects to incur additional costs in the future related to its restructuring activities. Future costs are expected to include demolition costs related to closed facilities and restructuring plan implementation costs; these costs will be recognized as incurred. The Company also expects to incur additional employee-related costs, including involuntary termination benefits, related to its other optimization activities. These costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Integration and Separation Costs
Integration and separation costs related to business separation activities are expected to result in additional cash expenditures of $125 million to $150 million through the end of 2020.
Contractual Obligations
Information related to the Company’s contractual obligations, commercial commitments and expected cash requirements for interest can be found in Notes 16, 17, 18 and 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Off-balance sheet arrangements are obligations the Company has with nonconsolidated entities related to transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements. The Company holds variable interests in joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of these joint ventures and therefore is not required to consolidate these entities (see Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, committed accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others if specific triggering events occur. The Company had outstanding guarantees at June 30, 2020 of $3,788 million, down from $3,952 million at December 31, 2019. Additional information related to guarantees can be found in the "Guarantees" section of Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fair Value Measurements
See Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning fair value measurements.

Recent Accounting Guidance
See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of recent accounting guidance.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 ("2019 10-K") describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2019 10-K. Since December 31, 2019, there have been no material changes in the Company’s accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates.
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past four decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises, and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products.
The table below provides information regarding asbestos-related claims pending against Union Carbide and Amchem based on criteria developed by Union Carbide and its external consultants:
| | | | | | | | |
Asbestos-Related Claim Activity | 2020 | 2019 |
Claims unresolved at Jan 1 | 11,117 | | 12,780 | |
Claims filed | 2,194 | | 2,819 | |
Claims settled, dismissed or otherwise resolved | (2,488) | | (3,477) | |
Claims unresolved at Jun 30 | 10,823 | | 12,122 | |
Claimants with claims against both Union Carbide and Amchem | (3,555) | | (4,217) | |
Individual claimants at Jun 30 | 7,268 | | 7,905 | |
Plaintiffs’ lawyers often sue numerous defendants in individual lawsuits or on behalf of numerous claimants. As a result, the damages alleged are not expressly identified as to Union Carbide, Amchem or any other particular defendant, even when specific damages are alleged with respect to a specific disease or injury. In fact, there are no personal injury cases in which only Union Carbide and/or Amchem are the sole named defendants. For these reasons and based upon Union Carbide’s litigation and settlement experience, Union Carbide does not consider the damages alleged against Union Carbide and Amchem to be a meaningful factor in its determination of any potential asbestos-related liability.
For additional information, see Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, for information on the Company's utilization of financial instruments and an analysis of the sensitivity of these instruments.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company (the "Companies") carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companies' Disclosure Committee and the Companies' management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companies' disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companies' disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Companies' internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 that was conducted during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companies' internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
No material developments regarding this matter occurred in the second quarter of 2020. For a current status of this matter, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Environmental Matters
On July 5, 2018, the Company received a draft consent decree from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”), relating to the operation of steam-assisted flares at the Company’s olefins manufacturing facilities in Freeport, Texas; Plaquemine, Louisiana; and St. Charles, Louisiana. On June 2, 2020, the EPA and the DOJ added Performance Materials NA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as an additional signatory to the existing draft consent decree based on the operation of steam-assisted flares at the Sabine olefins manufacturing facility in Orange, Texas. Performance Materials NA, Inc. acquired the Orange, TX Facility in February 2019 and became a subsidiary of the Company in April 2019. Discussions with the EPA, the DOJ and the DEQ are ongoing.
On October 23, 2019, Union Carbide received a proposed Agreed Order from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) relating to emissions of ethylene oxide from a process leak at Union Carbide's manufacturing facility in Seadrift, Texas. The proposed Agreed Order included an administrative penalty of $800,000. On December 30, 2019, the TCEQ sent a revised Agreed Order reducing the penalty to $600,000 based on Union Carbide's corrective actions and allowing for half of the administrative penalty amount to be used to fund a Supplemental Environmental Project. Union Carbide paid $300,000 in January 2020. The revised Agreed Order was approved by the TCEQ Commissioners on July 1, 2020.
On November 8, 2019, a proposed consent decree was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Civil Action No. 1:19-cv-13292 between the Company and federal, state and tribal trustees to resolve allegations of natural resource damages arising from the historic operations of the Company’s Midland, Michigan manufacturing facility. On November 14, 2019, a Notice of Lodging and Notice of Availability and Request for Comments on Draft Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment was published in the Federal Register. The DOJ filed a Joint Motion for Entry of the Consent Decree on May 8, 2020, which was granted and entered as a final order on July 20, 2020. The consent decree requires the Company to pay a $15 million cash settlement to be used for Trustee-selected remediation projects and $6.75 million to specified local projects managed by third parties, and requires the Company to complete 13 additional environmental restoration projects which are valued by the trustees at approximately $77 million.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Since December 31, 2019, there have been no material changes to the Company's Risk Factors, except as noted below:
Public Health Crisis: A public health crisis or global outbreak of disease, including the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) has had, and could continue to have, a negative effect on the Company's manufacturing operations, supply chain and workforce, creating business disruptions that could continue to have a substantial negative impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The pandemic caused by COVID-19 has impacted all geographic regions where Dow products are produced and sold. The global, regional and local spread of COVID-19 has resulted in significant global mitigation measures, including government-directed quarantines, social distancing and shelter-in-place mandates, travel restrictions and/or bans, and restricted access to certain corporate facilities and manufacturing sites. Uncertainty with respect to the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with crude oil price fluctuations due in part to the global spread of COVID-19, has contributed to the volatility of financial markets. While the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic in key geographic regions and end-markets cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, impacts to the Company include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the Company’s stock price due to market volatility; a decrease in demand for certain Company products; reduced profitability; supply chain disruptions impeding the Company’s ability to ship and/or receive product; temporary idling of select manufacturing facilities; interruptions or limitations to manufacturing operations imposed by local, state or federal governments; reduced market liquidity and increased borrowing costs; workforce absenteeism and distraction; labor shortages; customer credit concerns; increased cyber security risk and data accessibility disruptions due to remote working arrangements; and fluctuations in foreign currency markets. Additional risks may include, but are not limited to: shortages of key raw
materials; potential impairment in the carrying value of goodwill; other asset impairment charges; increased obligations related to the Company’s pension and other postretirement benefit plans; and deferred tax valuation allowances. Business disruptions and market volatility resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic have had and could continue to have a substantial negative impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
