Options to purchase 532,689 and 541,173 weighted average shares of common stock which were outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares.

 

The 2015 Exchangeable Notes have a dilutive effect only in those periods in which the Company’s average stock price exceeds the exchange price of $47.47 per share.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company’s average stock price did not exceed the exchange price.  Therefore, the potentially issuable shares resulting from the settlement of the 2015 Exchangeable Notes were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

On May 19, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”).  The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the previous credit agreement and the U.S. dollar-denominated 6.75% senior notes due 2014.  On June 7, 2011, the Company also redeemed the euro-denominated 6.75% senior notes due 2014.  The Company recorded $25 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees.

 

At June 30, 2011, the Agreement included a $900 million revolving credit facility, a 170 million Australian dollar term loan, a $600 million term loan, a 116 million Canadian dollar term loan, and a €141 million term loan, each of which has a final maturity date of May 19, 2016.  At June 30, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers had unused credit of $631 million available under the Agreement.

 

The Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted junior payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, make capital expenditures beyond a certain threshold, engage in material transactions with shareholders and

affiliates, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain outstanding debt obligations.

 

The Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company not to exceed a ratio calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Agreement.  The Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum.

 

Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Agreement.  In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable.  If an event of default occurs under the Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities.  A default or event of default under the Agreement, indentures or agreements governing other indebtedness could also lead to an acceleration of debt under other debt instruments that contain cross acceleration or cross-default provisions.

 

The Leverage Ratio also determines pricing under the Agreement.  The interest rate on borrowings under the Agreement is, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Agreement.  These rates include a margin linked to the Leverage Ratio.  The margins range from 1.25% to 2.00% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans.  In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum linked to the Leverage Ratio.  The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Agreement at June 30, 2011 was 2.89%. As of June 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Agreement.  In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

 

Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate, of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries.  Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.  All borrowings under the agreement are guaranteed by substantially all domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Agreement.

 

During October 2006, the Company entered into a €250 million European accounts receivable securitization program.  The program extends through October 2011, subject to annual renewal of backup credit lines.

6.  Contingencies

 

The Company is a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging bodily injury and death as a result of exposure to asbestos dust.  From 1948 to 1958, one of the Company’s former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based pipe and block insulation material containing asbestos.  The Company exited the pipe and block insulation business in April 1958.  The typical asbestos personal injury lawsuit alleges various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seek compensatory and in some cases, punitive damages in various amounts (herein referred to as “asbestos claims”).

 

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has determined that it is a named defendant in asbestos lawsuits and claims involving approximately 5,700 plaintiffs and claimants.  Based on an analysis of the lawsuits pending as of December 31, 2010, approximately 76% of plaintiffs either do not specify the monetary damages sought, or in the case of court filings, claim an amount sufficient to invoke the jurisdictional minimum of the trial court.  Approximately 22% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages of $15 million or less, and 2% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages greater than $15 million but less than $100 million.  Fewer than 1% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages $100 million or greater but less than $122 million.

 

As indicated by the foregoing summary, current pleading practice permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages.  The Company’s experience resolving hundreds of thousands of asbestos claims and lawsuits over an extended period demonstrates that the monetary relief that may be alleged in a complaint bears little relevance to a claim’s merits or disposition value.  Rather, the amount potentially recoverable is determined by such factors as the severity of the plaintiff’s asbestos disease, the product identification evidence against the Company and other defendants, the defenses available to the Company and other defendants, the specific jurisdiction in which the claim is made, and the plaintiff’s medical history and exposure to other disease-causing agents.

 

In addition to the pending claims set forth above, the Company has claims-handling agreements in place with many plaintiffs’ counsel throughout the country.  These agreements require evaluation and negotiation regarding whether particular claimants qualify under the criteria established by such agreements. The criteria for such claims include verification of a compensable illness and a reasonable probability of exposure to a product manufactured by the Company’s former business unit during its manufacturing period ending in 1958.  Some plaintiffs’ counsel have historically withheld claims under these agreements for later presentation while focusing their attention on active litigation in the tort system.  The Company believes that as of June 30, 2011 there are approximately 500 claims against other defendants

 

15



 

which are likely to be asserted some time in the future against the Company. These claims are not included in the pending “lawsuits and claims” totals set forth above.

 

The Company is also a defendant in other asbestos-related lawsuits or claims involving maritime workers, medical monitoring claimants, co-defendants and property damage claimants.  Based upon its past experience, the Company believes that these categories of lawsuits and claims will not involve any material liability and they are not included in the above description of pending matters or in the following description of disposed matters.

 

Since receiving its first asbestos claim, the Company as of June 30, 2011, has disposed of the asbestos claims of approximately 384,000 plaintiffs and claimants at an average indemnity payment per claim of approximately $7,900.  Certain of these dispositions have included deferred amounts payable over a number of years.  Deferred amounts payable totaled approximately $21 million at June 30, 2011 ($26 million at December 31, 2010) and are included in the foregoing average indemnity payment per claim.  The Company’s asbestos indemnity payments have varied on a per claim basis, and are expected to continue to vary considerably over time.  As discussed above, a part of the Company’s objective is to achieve, where possible, resolution of asbestos claims pursuant to claims-handling agreements.  Failure of claimants to meet certain medical and product exposure criteria in the Company’s administrative claims handling agreements has generally reduced the number of marginal or suspect claims that would otherwise have been received.  In addition, certain courts and legislatures have reduced or eliminated the number of marginal or suspect claims that the Company otherwise would have received.  These developments generally have had the effect of increasing the Company’s per-claim average indemnity payment.

 

The Company believes that its ultimate asbestos-related liability (i.e., its indemnity payments or other claim disposition costs plus related legal fees) cannot reasonably be estimated. Beginning with the initial liability of $975 million established in 1993, the Company has accrued a total of approximately $3.82 billion through 2010, before insurance recoveries, for its asbestos-related liability.  The Company’s ability to reasonably estimate its liability has been significantly affected by, among other factors, the volatility of asbestos-related litigation in the United States, the significant number of co-defendants that have filed for bankruptcy, the magnitude and timing of co-defendant bankruptcy trust payments, the inherent uncertainty of future disease incidence and claiming patterns, the expanding list of non-traditional defendants that have been sued in this litigation, and the use of mass litigation screenings to generate large numbers of claims by parties who allege exposure to asbestos dust but have no present physical asbestos impairment.

 

The Company has continued to monitor trends that may affect its ultimate liability and has continued to analyze the developments and variables affecting or likely to affect the resolution of pending and future asbestos claims against the Company. The material components of the Company’s accrued liability are based on amounts determined by the Company in connection with its annual comprehensive review and consist of the following estimates, to the extent it is probable that such liabilities have been incurred and can be reasonably estimated: (i) the liability for asbestos claims already asserted against the Company; (ii) the liability for preexisting but unasserted asbestos claims for prior periods arising under its administrative claims-handling agreements with various plaintiffs’ counsel; (iii) the liability for asbestos claims not yet asserted against the Company, but which the Company believes will be asserted in the next several years; and (iv) the legal defense costs likely to be incurred in connection with the foregoing types of claims.

 

16



 

The significant assumptions underlying the material components of the Company’s accrual are:

 

a)  the extent to which settlements are limited to claimants who were exposed to the Company’s asbestos-containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958;

 

b)  the extent to which claims are resolved under the Company’s administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements;

 

c)  the extent of decrease or increase in the incidence of serious disease cases and claiming patterns for such cases;

 

d)  the extent to which the Company is able to defend itself successfully at trial;

 

e)  the extent to which courts and legislatures eliminate, reduce or permit the diversion of financial resources for unimpaired claimants;

 

f)   the number and timing of additional co-defendant bankruptcies;

 

g)  the extent to which bankruptcy trusts direct resources to resolve claims that are also presented to the Company and the timing of the payments made by the bankruptcy trusts; and

 

h)  the extent to which co-defendants with substantial resources and assets continue to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos lawsuits and claims.

 

As noted above, the Company conducts a comprehensive review of its asbestos-related liabilities and costs annually in connection with finalizing and reporting its annual results of operations, unless significant changes in trends or new developments warrant an earlier review.  If the results of an annual comprehensive review indicate that the existing amount of the accrued liability is insufficient to cover its estimated future asbestos-related costs, then the Company will record an appropriate charge to increase the accrued liability.  The Company believes that a reasonable estimation of the probable amount of the liability for claims not yet asserted against the Company is not possible beyond a period of several years.  Therefore, while the results of future annual comprehensive reviews cannot be determined, the Company expects the addition of one year to the estimation period will result in an annual charge.

 

On March 11, 2011, the Company received a verdict in an asbestos case in which conspiracy claims had been asserted against the Company. Of the total nearly $90 million awarded by the jury against the four defendants in the case, almost $10 million in compensatory damages were assessed against all four defendants, and $40 million in punitive damages were assessed against the Company.

 

The Company continues to deny the conspiracy allegations in this case and will vigorously challenge this verdict, if necessary, in the appellate courts, and, therefore, has made no change to its asbestos-related liability as of June 30, 2011.  While the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit, the Company and other conspiracy defendants have successfully challenged jury verdicts in similar cases.

 

Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are

 

17



 

non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief.  The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated.  Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based including additional information, negotiations, settlements, and other events.

 

The ultimate legal and financial liability of the Company with respect to the lawsuits and proceedings referred to above, in addition to other pending litigation, cannot reasonably be estimated.  The Company’s reported results of operations for 2010 were materially affected by the $170 million (pretax and after tax) fourth quarter charge for asbestos-related costs and asbestos-related payments continue to be substantial.  Any future additional charge would likewise materially affect the Company’s results of operations for the period in which it is recorded. Also, the continued use of significant amounts of cash for asbestos-related costs has affected and may continue to affect the Company’s cost of borrowing and its ability to pursue global or domestic acquisitions. However, the Company believes that its operating cash flows and other sources of liquidity will be sufficient to pay its obligations for asbestos-related costs and to fund its working capital and capital expenditure requirements on a short-term and long-term basis.

 

7. Segment Information

 

The Company has four reportable segments based on its four geographic locations:  (1) Europe; (2) North America; (3) South America; (4) Asia Pacific.  These four segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations.  Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the regions or to glass manufacturing are reported with Retained Corporate Costs and Other.  These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, and non-glass equity investments.  Retained Corporate Costs and Other also includes certain headquarters administrative and facilities costs and certain incentive compensation and other benefit plan costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reportable segments.

 

The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is Segment Operating Profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs.  The Company’s management uses Segment Operating Profit, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources.  Segment Operating Profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.

Other expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, includes charges totaling $4 million and $12 million, respectively, for restructuring charges in the Company’s Asia Pacific segment.  See Note 9 for additional information.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded charges totaling $8 million for restructuring and asset impairment related to the Company’s strategic review of its global manufacturing footprint.  See Note 9 for additional information.

 

9.  Restructuring Accruals

 

Beginning in 2007, the Company commenced a strategic review of its global profitability and manufacturing footprint.  The Company concluded its global review as of December 31, 2009, with the final actions implemented in the first half of 2010.  Amounts recorded by the Company do not include any future gains that may be realized upon the ultimate sale or disposition of closed facilities.

 

The Company continually reviews its manufacturing footprint and may close various operations due to plant efficiencies, integration of acquisitions, and other market factors.  These restructuring actions taken by the Company are not related to the strategic review of

 

20



 

manufacturing operations discussed above.  As part of this continuing review of its manufacturing footprint, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $8 million in the first quarter of 2011 for employee costs related to a plant closing and the related relocation of business to other facilities in its Asia Pacific segment.  In addition, the Company recorded $4 million of restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2011 for employee costs related to the closure of a machine line in its Asia Pacific segment.

The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying amounts exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell.  The Company classified the significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets, which was not material, as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements.

 

The Company also recorded liabilities for certain employee separation costs to be paid under contractual arrangements and other exit costs.

 

10. Derivative Instruments

 

The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities which consist of interest rate swaps, natural gas forwards, and foreign exchange option and forward contracts.  The Company uses an income approach to valuing these contracts.  Interest rate yield curves, natural gas forward rates, and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models.  These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds,

 

21



 

and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy.  The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values.

 

Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Fair Value Hedges

 

In the fourth quarter of 2003 and the first quarter of 2004, the Company entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $700 million that were to mature in 2010 and 2013. The swaps were executed in order to: (i) convert a portion of the senior notes and senior debentures fixed-rate debt into floating-rate debt; (ii) maintain a capital structure containing appropriate amounts of fixed and floating-rate debt; and (iii) reduce net interest payments and expense in the near-term.

 

The Company’s fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps were accounted for as fair value hedges. Because the relevant terms of the swap agreements matched the corresponding terms of the notes, there was no hedge ineffectiveness. Accordingly, the Company recorded the net of the fair market values of the swaps as a long-term asset (liability) along with a corresponding net increase (decrease) in the carrying value of the hedged debt.

 

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument related to the future cash flows (gain or loss on the derivative) as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings.  The Company includes the gain or loss on the hedged items (i.e. long-term debt) in the same line item (interest expense) as the offsetting loss or gain on the related interest rate swaps.

 

During the second quarter of 2009, the Company completed a tender offer for its $250 million senior debentures due 2010.  As a result of the tender offer, the Company extinguished $222 million of the senior debentures and terminated the related interest rate swap agreements for proceeds of $5 million.  The Company recognized $4 million of the proceeds as a reduction to interest expense upon the termination of the interest rate swap agreements, while the remaining proceeds were recognized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining life of the outstanding senior debentures, which matured in May 2010.

 

During the second quarter of 2009, the Company’s interest rate swaps related to the $450 million senior notes due 2013 were terminated.  The Company received proceeds of $12 million which were recorded as an adjustment to debt and were to be recognized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining life of the senior notes due 2013.  During the second quarter of 2010, a subsidiary of the Company redeemed the senior notes due 2013.  Accordingly, the remaining unamortized proceeds from the terminated interest rate swaps were recognized in the second quarter as a reduction to interest expense.

 

The amortization of the proceeds from the terminated interest rate swaps reduced interest expense $10 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

 

Commodity Futures Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

 

In North America, the Company enters into commodity futures contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows.  The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market and related price risk and periodically enters into

 

22



 

commodity futures contracts in order to hedge a portion of its usage requirements.  The majority of the sales volume in North America is tied to customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to the customer.  In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time.  At June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company had entered into commodity futures contracts covering approximately 6,300,000 MM BTUs and 4,800,000 MM BTUs, respectively, primarily related to customer requests to lock the price of natural gas.

 

The Company accounts for the above futures contracts as cash flow hedges at June 30, 2011 and recognizes them on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as, and meets the required criteria for, a cash flow hedge is recorded in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners’ equity (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. At June 30, 2011 and 2010, an unrecognized loss of $2 million and $2 million, respectively, related to the commodity futures contracts was included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve to twenty-four months.  Any material portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is deemed to be ineffective is recognized in current earnings.  The ineffectiveness related to these natural gas hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was not material.

 

The effect of the commodity futures contracts on the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

Senior Notes Designated as Net Investment Hedge

 

During December 2004, a U.S. subsidiary of the Company issued senior notes totaling €225 million.  These notes were designated by the Company’s subsidiary as a hedge of a portion of its net investment in a non-U.S. subsidiary with a Euro functional currency.  Because the amount of the senior notes matched the hedged portion of the net investment, there was no hedge ineffectiveness. Accordingly, the Company recorded the impact of changes in the foreign currency exchange rate on the Euro-denominated notes in OCI.    During the second quarter of 2011, the senior notes designated as the net investment hedge were redeemed by a subsidiary of the Company.  The amount recorded in OCI related to this net investment hedge will be reclassified into earnings when the Company sells or liquidates its net investment in the non-U.S. subsidiary.

 

The effect of the net investment hedge on the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

Forward Exchange Contracts not Designated as Hedging Instruments

 

The Company’s subsidiaries may enter into short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. Subsidiaries may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables and payables, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in current earnings.

 

At June 30, 2011 and 2010, various subsidiaries of the Company had outstanding forward exchange and option agreements denominated in various currencies covering the equivalent of approximately $890 million and $610 million, respectively, related primarily to intercompany transactions and loans.

Balance Sheet Classification

 

The Company records the fair values of derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as follows: (a) receivables if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity within one year, (b) deposits, receivables, and other assets if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity after one year, (c) other accrued liabilities or other liabilities (current) if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity within one year, and (d) other liabilities if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity after one year.  The following table shows the amount and classification (as noted above) of the Company’s derivatives:

12.  Discontinued Operations

 

On October 26, 2010, the Venezuelan government, through Presidential Decree No. 7.751, expropriated the assets of Owens-Illinois de Venezuela and Fabrica de Vidrios Los Andes, C.A., two of the Company’s subsidiaries in that country, which in effect constituted a taking of the going concerns of those companies.  Shortly after the issuance of the decree, the Venezuelan government installed temporary administrative boards to control the expropriated assets.

 

Since the issuance of the decree, the Company has cooperated with the Venezuelan government, as it is compelled to do under Venezuelan law, to provide for an orderly transition while ensuring the safety and well-being of the employees and the integrity of the production facilities.  The Company has been engaged in negotiations with the Venezuelan government in relation to certain aspects of the expropriation, including the compensation payable by the government as a result of its expropriation.  The Company reserves and will continue to reserve the right to seek and obtain just compensation, representing the market value of its investment in Venezuela, in exchange for the expropriated assets pursuant to, as appropriate, applicable domestic and/or international law.  The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount, or timing of receipt, of compensation it will ultimately receive.

 

27



 

The Company considered the disposal of these assets to be complete as of December 31, 2010.  As a result, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company has presented the results of operations for its Venezuelan subsidiaries in the Consolidated Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, as discontinued operations.  At June 30, 2010, the assets and liabilities of the Venezuelan operations are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as the assets and liabilities of discontinued operations.

 

The following summarizes the revenues and expenses of the Venezuelan operations reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Results of Operations for the periods indicated:

The net assets of the Company’s Venezuelan operations were written-off as of December 31, 2010 as a result of the deconsolidation of the subsidiaries due to the loss of control.  The type or amount of compensation the Company may receive from the Venezuelan government is uncertain and thus, will be recorded as a gain from discontinued operations when received.  The cumulative currency translation losses relate to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar in prior years and were written-off because the expropriation was a substantially complete liquidation of the Company’s operations in Venezuela.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2010 included the following assets and liabilities related to the discontinued operations of the Company’s Venezuelan subsidiaries:

13. New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance related to the financial statement presentation of other comprehensive income (OCI). The guidance requires that OCI be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2011.  Adoption of this guidance only impacts presentation and disclosure of OCI, with no impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

 

14.  Financial Information for Subsidiary Guarantors and Non-Guarantors

 

The following presents condensed consolidating financial information for the Company, segregating:  (1) Owens-Illinois, Inc., the issuer of two series of senior debentures (the “Parent”); (2) the two subsidiaries which have guaranteed the senior debentures on a subordinated basis (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”); and (3) all other subsidiaries (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”).  The Guarantor Subsidiaries are 100% owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company and their guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several.  They have no operations and function only as intermediate holding companies.

 

100% owned subsidiaries are presented on the equity basis of accounting.  Certain reclassifications have been made to conform all of the financial information to the financial presentation on a consolidated basis.  The principal eliminations relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Following are the Company’s net sales by segment and Segment Operating Profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (dollars in millions).  The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is Segment Operating Profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs.  The segment data presented below is prepared in accordance with general accounting principles for segment reporting.  The line titled ‘reportable segment totals’, however, is a non-GAAP measure when presented outside of the financial statement footnotes.  Management has included ‘reportable segment totals’ below to facilitate the discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.  The Company’s management uses Segment Operating Profit, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources.

Note:  All amounts excluded from reportable segment totals are discussed in the following applicable sections.

 

Executive Overview — Quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

 

Second Quarter 2011 Highlights

 

·                  Net sales increased as 2010 acquisitions and improving market conditions drove a more than 6% increase in tonnes shipped

·                  Lower Segment Operating Profit due to higher cost inflation and manufacturing costs

·                  Completed new $2 billion bank credit agreement and redeemed $400 million and €225 million senior notes due 2014

 

Net sales were $289 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to higher sales volumes driven by recent acquisitions and the favorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

 

Segment Operating Profit for reportable segments was $46 million lower than the prior year.  The decrease was mainly attributable to additional cost inflation, production and supply chain issues in North America, and lower sales volumes in Australia and New Zealand which required lower production levels.

 

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2011 increased $40 million over the second quarter of 2010.  The increase was principally due to note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to debt redeemed in the second quarter of 2011, as well as additional interest related to debt issued in 2010 to fund acquisitions.

 

39



 

Net earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company for the second quarter of 2011 was $71 million, or $0.42 per share (diluted), compared with $132 million, or $0.79 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of 2010.  Earnings in both periods included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations.  These items decreased net earnings attributable to the Company in 2011 by $27 million, or $0.17 per share, and decreased net earnings attributable to the Company in 2010 by $8 million, or $0.05 per share.

 

Results of Operations — Second Quarter of 2011 compared with Second Quarter of 2010

 

Net Sales

 

The Company’s net sales in the second quarter of 2011 were $1,959 million compared with $1,670 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $289 million, or 17%. The increase in net sales was primarily due to higher glass container shipments and the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  Glass container shipments, in tonnes, were up  over 6% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the second quarter of 2010.  Sales volumes were up in all end-use categories, with the acquisitions in Argentina, Brazil and China in 2010 representing 5% of the 6% volume growth.  The remaining increase in volume was due to improving market conditions, as favorable demand in Europe and South America more than offset lower volume in Australia and New Zealand.  Foreign currency exchange rate changes increased net sales in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior year, primarily due to a stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Cost pass-through provisions include monthly or quarterly contractual provisions as well as the transfer of certain third-party costs, such as shipping, to customers, primarily in North America.

 

Europe:  Net sales in Europe in the second quarter of 2011 were $887 million compared with $716 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $171 million, or 24%.  Glass container shipment levels increased mid-single digits as demand grew across all key end-use categories.  The remaining increase in net sales was due to the favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes, as the Euro strengthened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

North America:  Net sales in North America in the second quarter of 2011 were $506 million compared with $516 million for the second quarter of 2010, a decrease of $10 million, or 2%.  The decrease in net sales was due to lower glass container shipments in the current quarter, particularly in the beer category. The lower shipments were caused, in part, by missed sales opportunities resulting from low inventory levels and supply chain issues during the quarter.  The decrease in net sales from lower sales volume was partially offset by the favorable effects

 

40



 

of foreign currency exchange rate changes due to a stronger Canadian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

South America:  Net sales in South America in the second quarter of 2011 were $302 million compared with $207 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $95 million, or 46%.  Glass container shipments were up more than 35% in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior year.  The acquisitions in Argentina and Brazil in 2010 accounted for approximately two-thirds of this volume increase.  The remaining volume increase was due to strong growth in the region, primarily in Brazil, Peru and Argentina.  The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes also contributed to the increase in net sales in the second quarter of 2011, primarily due to the strengthening of the Brazilian real in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

Asia Pacific:  Net sales in Asia Pacific in the second quarter of 2011 were $246 million compared with $223 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $23 million, or 10%.  Glass container shipment levels increased low-single digits, with all the increase attributable to the acquisitions in China in 2010.  Glass container shipments of wine and beer bottles in Australia and New Zealand were down nearly 20% in the current quarter compared to the prior year.  The decrease in shipments of wine bottles was primarily due to the strong Australian dollar, which negatively impacted wine exports from the country.  In addition, beer consumption decreased as high interest rates in Australia and New Zealand lowered consumers’ disposable income. The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes also contributed to the increase in net sales in the second quarter of 2011, primarily due to the strengthening of the Australian and New Zealand dollars in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

Segment Operating Profit

 

Operating Profit of the reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.  Unallocated corporate expenses and certain other expenses not directly related to the reportable segments’ operations are included in Retained corporate costs and other.  For further information, see Segment Information included in Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Segment Operating Profit of reportable segments in the second quarter of 2011 was $225 million compared to $271 million for the second quarter of 2010, a decrease of $46 million, or 17%.  The decrease in Segment Operating Profit was primarily due to higher manufacturing and delivery costs, principally due to $60 million of cost inflation, $26 million of production and supply chain issues in North America, and $10 million related to lower production levels in Asia Pacific, partially offset by $10 million from the North America footprint realignment efforts completed in 2010.  The cost inflation in the second quarter of 2011 was driven by higher raw material, labor and energy prices.  The higher raw material prices were mainly due to the increased cost of soda ash in all regions.  The energy inflation was primarily due to the rapid rise in European energy prices, and will likely result in higher energy costs for the remainder of 2011. Partially offsetting the higher manufacturing and delivery costs were the benefits of the higher sales volume and favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes.

Europe:  Segment operating profit in Europe in the second quarter of 2011 was $107 million compared with $104 million in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $3 million, or 3%.  Higher sales volume and the favorable effects of a stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar contributed to the increased operating profit.  Partially offsetting these increases to operating profit was additional cost inflation, primarily driven by higher energy prices.  In response to the rise in energy prices, the Company has initiated an energy surcharge in Europe which will help to offset the higher cost in the second half of 2011.  The Company expects to recover the remainder of the cost inflation in Europe through higher selling prices in 2012.

 

North America:  Segment operating profit in North America in the second quarter of 2011 was $56 million compared with $87 million in the second quarter of 2010, a decrease of $31 million, or 36%.  The lower operating profit in this region was due to the lower sales volume and higher manufacturing and delivery costs, driven by cost inflation and production and supply chain issues, partially offset by footprint realignment savings. This segment also incurred expenses related to building its sales and marketing capabilities and to the phased implementation of a global Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.

 

The Company entered the seasonally strong second quarter with overall tight inventory levels in this region, and production issues during the quarter led to inventory shortages at certain locations.  During the second quarter, out-of-pattern production was required to meet customer expectations resulting in production inefficiencies, higher freight costs and product loss.  The Company has restarted two previously idled furnaces in this region to reduce the out-of-pattern production and help meet customer demand.  The Company is also leveraging its global footprint to shift inventory from other regions to support North America.  This region also plans to increase production during the seasonally lower demand period in the second half of 2011 to rebuild inventory levels and avoid future supply chain complications.

 

South America:  Segment operating profit in South America in the second quarter of 2011 was $53 million compared with $49 million in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $4 million, or 8%.  Higher sales volume, primarily due to the acquisitions in Argentina and Brazil in 2010, was the main reason for the increased operating profit.  This higher sales volume was partially offset by higher cost inflation and transportation costs.  The Company expects to recapture the cost inflation through higher selling prices starting in the third quarter of 2011.  Increased transportation costs were due to the segment shipping glass containers into Brazil from other countries in the region to support the rapid growth in that country.  The region also incurred additional costs as it realigned machinery to increase capacity in Brazil.

 

Asia Pacific:  Segment operating profit in Asia Pacific in the second quarter of 2011 was $9 million compared with $31 million in the second quarter of 2010, a decrease of $22 million, or 71%.  The decrease in operating profit was primarily due to two macroeconomic conditions in Australia and New Zealand, which were the strong currencies and high interest rates.  In response to the lower wine and beer bottle shipments in these countries, the

 

42



 

Company has temporarily curtailed production, resulting in unabsorbed manufacturing costs.  The Company is currently formulating a restructuring plan to align its supply base with lower demand in Australia, and has already closed one machine line.  To accommodate seasonal demand patterns, the Company will implement additional steps of the restructuring plan over the next several quarters.

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2011 was $100 million compared with $60 million for the second quarter of 2010.  The  2011 amount includes $25 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees related to the cancellation of the Company’s previous bank credit agreement and the redemption of the senior notes due 2014.  Exclusive of these items, interest expense increased $15 million.  The increase is principally due to additional debt issued in 2010 to fund acquisitions.

 

Net Earnings Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests in the second quarter of 2011 were $7 million compared with $14 million in the second quarter of 2010.  The amount for 2010 includes $3 million classified as discontinued operations related to the Company’s Venezuelan operations.  The remaining decrease in the current quarter was primarily a result of lower earnings in the Company’s less than wholly-owned subsidiaries in its South America and Asia Pacific segments in the second quarter of 2011.

 

Earnings from Continuing Operations Attributable to the Company

 

For the second quarter of 2011 the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $71 million, or $0.42 per share (diluted), compared to $132 million, or $0.79 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2010.  Earnings in both periods included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations.  These items decreased earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company in 2011 by $27 million, or $0.17 per share, and decreased net earnings attributable to the Company in 2010 by $8 million, or $0.05 per share.

 

Executive Overview — Six Months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

 

2011 Highlights

 

·                  Net sales increased as 2010 acquisitions and improving market conditions drove a 7% increase in tonnes shipped

·                  Lower Segment Operating Profit due to higher cost inflation and manufacturing costs

·                  Completed new $2 billion bank credit agreement and redeemed $400 million and €225 million senior notes due 2014

 

Net sales were $462 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to higher sales volumes driven by recent acquisitions and the favorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

 

Segment Operating Profit for reportable segments was $40 million lower than the prior year.  The decrease was mainly attributable to additional cost inflation, production and supply chain

 

43



 

issues in North America, lower sales volumes in Australia and New Zealand which required lower production levels, and the impact of flooding in Australia.

 

Interest expense for the first six months of 2011 increased $60 million over the first six months of 2010.  The increase was principally due to note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to debt redeemed in the second quarter of 2011, as well as additional interest related to debt issued in 2010 to fund acquisitions.

 

For the first six months of 2011 the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $144 million, or $0.86 per share (diluted), compared to $214 million, or $1.27 per share (diluted), in the first six months of 2010.  Earnings in both periods included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations.  These items decreased earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company in 2011 by $32 million, or $0.20 per share, and decreased net earnings attributable to the Company in 2010 by $8 million, or $0.05 per share.

 

Results of Operations — First six months of 2011 compared with first six months of 2010

 

Net Sales

 

The Company’s net sales in the first six months of 2011 were $3,678 million compared with $3,216 million for the first six months of 2010, an increase of $462 million, or 14%. The increase in net sales was primarily due to higher glass container shipments and the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  Glass container shipments, in tonnes, were up 7% in 2011 compared to 2010.  Sales volumes were up in all end-use categories, with the acquisitions in Argentina, Brazil and China in 2010 representing approximately 5% of the 7% volume growth.  The remaining increase in volume was due to improving market conditions, as favorable demand in Europe and South America more than offset lower volume in Australia and New Zealand.  Foreign currency exchange rate changes increased net sales in the first six months of 2011 compared to the prior year, primarily due to a stronger Euro, Australian dollar and Brazilian real in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Cost pass-through provisions include monthly or quarterly contractual provisions as well as the transfer of certain third-party costs, such as shipping, to customers, primarily in North America.

 

Europe:  Net sales in Europe in the first six months of 2011 were $1,585 million compared with $1,384 million for the first six months of 2010, an increase of $201 million, or 15%.  Glass container shipment levels increased mid-single digits as demand grew across all key end-use categories, particularly in the wine and beer segments.  The remaining increase in net sales

 

44



 

was due to the favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes, as the Euro strengthened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

North America:  Net sales in North America in the first six months of 2011 were $969 million compared with $960 million for the first six months of 2010, an increase of $9 million, or 1%.  The increase in net sales was primarily due to the favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes, as the Canadian dollar strengthened in relation to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by lower glass container shipments in the current year, particularly in the beer category.

 

South America:  Net sales in South America in the first six months of 2011 were $571 million compared with $382 million for the first six months of 2010, an increase of $189 million, or 49%.  Glass container shipments were up more than 40% in the current year, with the acquisitions in Argentina and Brazil in 2010 accounted for approximately two-thirds of this volume increase.  The remaining volume increase was due to strong growth in the region, primarily in Brazil, Peru and Argentina.  The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes also contributed to the increase in net sales in 2011, primarily due to the strengthening of the Brazilian real in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

Asia Pacific:  Net sales in Asia Pacific in the first six months of 2011 were $508 million compared with $473 million for the first six months of 2010, an increase of $35 million, or 7%.  Glass container shipment levels increased mid-single digits, with all the increase attributable to the acquisitions in China in 2010.  Glass container shipments in Australia and New Zealand were down more than 10% in 2011 compared to the prior year, primarily in the wine and beer end-use categories.  The decrease in shipments of wine bottles was primarily due to the strong Australian dollar, which negatively impacted wine exports from the country.  In addition, beer consumption decreased as high interest rates in Australia and New Zealand lowered consumers’ disposable income. Severe flooding in Australia during the first quarter of 2011 also reduced shipments in the region.  The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes increased net sales in the first six months of 2011, primarily due to the strengthening of the Australian and New Zealand dollars in relation to the U.S. dollar.

 

Segment Operating Profit

 

Operating Profit of the reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.  Unallocated corporate expenses and certain other expenses not directly related to the reportable segments’ operations are included in Retained corporate costs and other.  For further information, see Segment Information included in Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Segment Operating Profit of reportable segments in the first six months of 2011 was $424 million compared to $464 million for the first six months of 2010, a decrease of $40 million, or 9%.  The decrease in Segment Operating Profit was primarily due to higher manufacturing and delivery costs and operating expenses, partially offset by higher sales volumes in 2011 and the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  The higher manufacturing and delivery costs were principally due to $109 million of cost inflation, $26 million of production and supply chain issues in North America, $10 million related to lower production levels in Asia Pacific, and $9 million of costs related to flooding in Australia, partially offset by $70 million primarily from improved capacity utilization and footprint realignment efforts completed in 2010.  The cost inflation in the first six months of 2011 was driven by higher raw material, labor

 

45



 

and energy prices.  The higher raw material prices were mainly due to the increased cost of soda ash in all regions.  The energy inflation was primarily due to the rapid rise in European energy prices, and will likely result in higher energy costs for the remainder of 2011.  Operating expenses were higher as the Company invested in building its sales and marketing capabilities and also incurred expenses related to the phased implementation of a global Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software system.

Segment Operating Profit - 2011

 

 

 

$

Europe:  Segment operating profit in Europe in the first six months of 2011 was $178 million compared with $160 million in the first six months of 2010, an increase of $18 million, or 11%.  Higher sales volume and the favorable effects of a stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar contributed to the increased operating profit.  Operating profit also increased due to higher production levels, which led to lower manufacturing costs on a per-ton basis.  Partially offsetting these increases to operating profit was additional cost inflation, primarily driven by higher energy prices.  In response to the rise in energy prices, the Company has initiated an energy surcharge in Europe which will help to offset the higher cost in the second half of 2011.  The Company expects to recover the remainder of the cost inflation in Europe through higher selling prices in 2012.

 

North America:  Segment operating profit in North America in the first six months of 2011 was $115 million compared with $150 million in the first six months of 2010, a decrease of $35 million, or 23%.  The lower operating profit in this region was due to higher manufacturing and delivery costs, driven by cost inflation and production and supply chain issues, partially offset by footprint realignment savings.  This segment also incurred expenses related to building its sales and marketing capabilities and to the phased implementation of a global ERP system.

 

The Company entered the seasonally strong second quarter with overall tight inventory levels in this region, and production issues during the quarter led to inventory shortages at certain locations.  During the second quarter, out-of-pattern production was required to meet customer expectations resulting in production inefficiencies, higher freight and product loss.  The Company has restarted two previously idled furnaces in this region to reduce the out-of-pattern production and help meet customer demand.  The Company is also leveraging its global footprint to shift inventory from other regions to support North America.  This region also plans to increase production during the seasonally lower demand period in the second half of 2011 to rebuild inventory levels and avoid future supply chain complications.

 

South America:  Segment operating profit in South America in the first six months of 2011 was $98 million compared with $86 million in the first six months of 2010, an increase of $12 million, or 14%.  Higher sales volume, primarily due to the acquisitions in Argentina and Brazil in 2010, was the main reason for the increased operating profit.  This higher sales volume was partially offset by higher cost inflation and transportation costs.  The Company expects to recapture the

 

46



 

cost inflation through higher selling prices starting in the third quarter of 2011.  Increased transportation costs were due to the segment shipping glass containers into Brazil from other countries in the region to support the rapid growth in that country.  The region also incurred additional costs as it realigned machinery to increase capacity in Brazil.

 

Asia Pacific:  Segment operating profit in Asia Pacific in the first six months of 2011 was $33 million compared with $68 million in the first six months of 2010, a decrease of $35 million, or 51%.  Lower sales volume as a result of two macroeconomic conditions in Australia and New Zealand, which were the strong currencies and high interest rates, along with the lower sales in Australia due to the severe flooding in the first quarter of 2011, were the primary reasons for the lower operating profit.  In response to the lower wine and beer bottle shipments in these countries, the Company has temporarily curtailed production in Asia Pacific, resulting in unabsorbed manufacturing costs.  The Company is currently formulating a restructuring plan to align its supply base with lower demand in Australia, and has already closed one machine line.  To accommodate seasonal demand patterns, the Company will implement additional steps of the restructuring plan over the next several quarters.  Additionally, the segment incurred $9 million of costs related to the flooding in Australia.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense for the first six months of 2011 was $176 million compared with $116 million for the first six months of 2010.  The  2011 amount includes $25 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees related to the cancellation of the Company’s previous bank credit agreement and the redemption of the senior notes due 2014.  Exclusive of these items, interest expense increased $35 million.  The increase is principally due to additional debt issued in 2010 to fund acquisitions.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 27.9% compared with 26.2% for the first six months of 2010. The 2011 effective tax rate included $4 million of net discrete tax benefits related to tax planning strategies in Europe and South America.

 

Excluding the amounts related to items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations, the Company expects that the full year effective tax rate for 2011 will be 24% compared with 26.2% for 2010. The 2011 rate may be lower depending on the mix of earnings by country.  The decrease in the expected effective tax rate for the full year 2011 is partly due to tax planning strategies implemented by the Company, and is also impacted by lower expected earnings in high tax jurisdictions.

 

Net Earnings Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

 

Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests in the first six months of 2011 were $11 million compared with $23 million in the first six months of 2010.  The amount for 2010 includes $3 million classified as discontinued operations related to the Company’s Venezuelan operations. The decrease was primarily a result of lower earnings in the Company’s less than wholly-owned subsidiaries in its South America and Asia Pacific segments in 2011.

 

47



 

Earnings from Continuing Operations Attributable to the Company

 

For the first six months of 2011 the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $144 million, or $0.86 per share (diluted), compared to $214 million, or $1.27 per share (diluted), in the first six months of 2010.  Earnings in both periods included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations.  These items decreased earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company in 2011 by $32 million, or $0.20 per share, and decreased net earnings attributable to the Company in 2010 by $8 million, or $0.05 per share.

 

Items Excluded from Reportable Segment Totals

 

Retained Corporate Costs and Other

 

Retained corporate costs and other for the second quarter of 2011 was $14 million compared with $13 million for the second quarter of 2010, and $27 million for the first six months of 2011 compared to $31 million for the first six months of 2010.  Retained corporate costs and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 reflect higher marketing and pension expense compared to the prior year, offset by a reduction of management incentive compensation expense of approximately $10 million for the second quarter and $15 million for the first six months, approximately half of which was related to the impact of lower financial results in the current year and the other half related to the impact of changes in estimates on amounts expensed in previous periods.  The first six months of 2011 also benefitted from higher earnings from the Company’s global equipment sales business.

 

Restructuring

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $4 million for employee costs related to the closure of a machine line in its Asia Pacific segment.  The Company is currently formulating a restructuring plan to align its supply base with lower demand in Australia, and intends to implement this plan over the next several quarters.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded restructuring charges totaling $12 million for employee costs related to the closure of a machine line in its Asia Pacific segment, as well as a plant closing and the related relocation of business to other facilities in the Company’s Asia Pacific segment.  This plant is located in the central business district of a large city, where property values have increased considerably.  The Company is currently in the process of selling the related property.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded charges totaling $8 million for restructuring and asset impairment related to the Company’s strategic review of its global manufacturing footprint.

 

See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

On October 26, 2010, the Venezuelan government, through Presidential Decree No. 7.751, expropriated the assets of Owens-Illinois de Venezuela and Fabrica de Vidrios Los Andes, C.A.,

 

48



 

two of the Company’s subsidiaries in that country, which in effect constituted a taking of the going concerns of those companies.  Shortly after the issuance of the decree, the Venezuelan government installed temporary administrative boards to control the expropriated assets.

 

Since the issuance of the decree, the Company has cooperated with the Venezuelan government, as it is compelled to do under Venezuelan law, to provide for an orderly transition while ensuring the safety and well-being of the employees and the integrity of the production facilities.  The Company has been engaged in negotiations with the Venezuelan government in relation to certain aspects of the expropriation, including the compensation payable by the government as a result of its expropriation.  The Company reserves and will continue to reserve the right to seek and obtain just compensation, representing the market value of its investment in Venezuela, in exchange for the expropriated assets pursuant to, as appropriate, applicable domestic and/or international law.  The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount, or timing of receipt, of compensation it will ultimately receive.

 

The Company considered the disposal of these assets to be complete as of December 31, 2010.  As a result, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company has presented the results of operations for its Venezuelan subsidiaries in the Consolidated Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 as discontinued operations.  At June 30, 2010, the assets and liabilities of the Venezuelan operations are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as the assets and liabilities of discontinued operations.

 

The following summarizes the revenues and expenses of the Venezuelan operations reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Results of Operations for the periods indicated:

The net assets of the Company’s Venezuelan operations were written-off as of December 31, 2010 as a result of the deconsolidation of the subsidiaries due to the loss of control.  The type or amount of compensation the Company may receive from the Venezuelan government is uncertain and thus, will be recorded as a gain from discontinued operations when received.  The cumulative currency translation losses relate to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar in prior years and were written-off because the expropriation was a substantially complete liquidation of the Company’s operations in Venezuela.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

 

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had cash and total debt of $260 million and $4.3 billion, respectively, compared to $648 million and $3.5 billion, respectively, as of June 30, 2010.  Most of the cash was held in mature, liquid markets where the Company has operations, such as the U.S., Europe and Australia, and is readily available to fund global liquidity requirements. The amount of cash held in non-U.S. locations as of June 30, 2011 was $210 million.

 

Current and Long-Term Debt

 

On May 19, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”).  The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the previous credit agreement and the U.S. dollar-denominated 6.75% senior notes due 2014. On June 7, 2011, the Company also redeemed the euro denominated 6.75% senior notes due 2014. The Company recorded $25 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees.

 

At June 30, 2011, the Agreement included a $900 million revolving credit facility, a 170 million Australian dollar term loan, a $600 million term loan, a 116 million Canadian dollar term loan, and a €141 million term loan, each of which has a final maturity date of May 19, 2016.  At June 30, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers had unused credit of $631 million available under the Agreement.

 

50



 

The Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted junior payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, make capital expenditures beyond a certain threshold, engage in material transactions with shareholders and affiliates, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain outstanding debt obligations.

 

The Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company not to exceed a ratio calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Agreement.  The Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum.

 

Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Agreement.  In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable.  If an event of default occurs under the Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities.  A default or event of default under the Agreement, indentures or agreements governing other indebtedness could also lead to an acceleration of debt under other debt instruments that contain cross acceleration or cross-default provisions.

 

The Leverage Ratio also determines pricing under the Agreement.  The interest rate on borrowings under the Agreement is, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Agreement.  These rates include a margin linked to the Leverage Ratio.  The margins range from 1.25% to 2.00% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans.  In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum linked to the Leverage Ratio.  The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Agreement at June 30, 2011 was 2.89%. As of June 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Agreement.  In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

 

Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate, of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries.  Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.  All borrowings under the agreement are guaranteed by substantially all domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Agreement.

 

51



 

The Company assesses its capital raising and refinancing needs on an ongoing basis and may enter into additional credit facilities and seek to issue equity and/or debt securities in the domestic and international capital markets if market conditions are favorable.

 

During October 2006, the Company entered into a €250 million European accounts receivable securitization program.  The program extends through October 2011, subject to annual renewal of backup credit lines.

Cash Flows

 

Free cash flow was $(61) million for the first six months of 2011 compared to $(86) million for the first six months of 2010.  The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by continuing operating activities less additions to property, plant, and equipment from continuing operations.  Free cash flow does not conform to U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to the cash flow measures reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  The Company uses free cash flow for internal reporting, forecasting and budgeting and believes this information allows the board of directors, management, investors and analysts to better understand the Company’s financial performance.  Free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is calculated as follows:

Operating activities:  Cash provided by continuing operating activities was $92 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared with $149 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The decrease in cash flows from continuing operating activities was primarily due to lower earnings in the current year.  The decrease in cash flows from continuing operating activities was also due to increased interest payments of $19 million as a result of higher debt balances and a decrease in dividends received from equity investments of $13 million, partially offset by decreases in cash paid for restructuring activities of $18 million and asbestos-related payments of $9 million.

 

Investing activities:  Cash utilized in investing activities was $300 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $262 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  Capital spending for property, plant and equipment from continuing operations during the six

months ended June 30, 2011 was $153 million compared with $235 million in the prior year.  The decrease in capital spending was due to restructuring activities in North America and new furnace expansions in South America and Asia Pacific in 2010.  Cash utilized in investing activities in 2011 included $147 million for acquisitions, primarily related to the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest of the Company’s southern Brazil operation.  Investing activities in 2010 included $26 million of cash paid to acquire a glass manufacturing plant in Argentina.

 

Financing activities:  Cash utilized in financing activities was $188 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  Financing activities in 2011 included additions to long-term debt of approximately $1.5 billion, primarily related to borrowings under the Company’s new bank credit agreement, and repayments of long-term debt of approximately $1.6 billion, primarily related to the cancellation of the old bank credit agreement and the redemption of the senior notes due 2014.  Financing activities in 2010 included the issuance of the exchangeable senior notes due 2015 and the redemption of the senior notes due 2013.  Financing activities in 2010 also included $199 million paid by the Company to repurchase shares of its common stock.

 

The Company anticipates that cash flows from its operations and from utilization of credit available under the Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operating and seasonal working capital needs, debt service and other obligations on a short-term (twelve-months) and long-term basis.  Based on the Company’s expectations regarding future payments for lawsuits and claims and also based on the Company’s expected operating cash flow, the Company believes that the payment of any deferred amounts of previously settled or otherwise determined lawsuits and claims, and the resolution of presently pending and anticipated future lawsuits and claims associated with asbestos, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s liquidity on a short-term or long-term basis.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The Company’s analysis and discussion of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  The Company evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.  Estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time the financial statements are issued.  The results of these estimates may form the basis of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities and may not be readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results, under conditions and circumstances different from those assumed, may differ from estimates.

 

The impact of, and any associated risks related to, estimates and assumptions are discussed within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, if applicable, where estimates and assumptions affect the Company’s reported and expected financial results.

 

Goodwill — Goodwill at June 30, 2011 totaled $2,957 million.  The Company evaluates goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment.  The Company conducts its evaluation as of October 1 of each year.  Goodwill impairment testing is performed using the business enterprise value (“BEV”) of each reporting unit which is calculated as of a

 

53



 

measurement date by determining the present value of debt-free, after-tax projected future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third party buyer.  This BEV is then compared to the book value of each reporting unit as of the measurement date to assess whether an impairment of goodwill may exist.

 

The testing performed as of October 1, 2010, indicated a significant excess of BEV over book value for each unit.  Based on operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and current forecasts for the remainder of the year, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the BEV for every unit is greater than the book value, and that significant excesses remain for its Europe, North America and South America segments.  The Company’s Asia Pacific segment had BEV in excess of book value of 24% as of October 1, 2010.  Given the current short-term outlook for the business, the Company believes the excess in Asia Pacific has decreased during the first six months of 2011.  The Company is currently reviewing its business plans for this segment, as well as assessing the impact of the previously discussed restructuring initiatives.  As of June 30, 2011, the Asia Pacific segment had goodwill of $699 million.

 

There have been no other material changes in critical accounting estimates at June 30, 2011 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This document contains “forward looking” statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933. Forward looking statements reflect the Company’s current expectations and projections about future events at the time, and thus involve uncertainty and risk. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward looking statements. It is possible the Company’s future financial performance may differ from expectations due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to the following: (1) foreign currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, (2) changes in capital availability or cost, including interest rate fluctuations, (3) the general political, economic and competitive conditions in markets and countries where the Company has operations, including uncertainties related to the economic conditions in Australia and New Zealand, the expropriation of the Company’s operations in Venezuela, disruptions in capital markets, disruptions in the supply chain, competitive pricing pressures, inflation or deflation, and changes in tax rates and laws, (4) consumer preferences for alternative forms of packaging, (5) fluctuations in raw material and labor costs, (6) availability of raw materials, (7) costs and availability of energy, including natural gas prices, (8) transportation costs, (9) the ability of the Company to raise selling prices commensurate with energy and other cost increases, (10) consolidation among competitors and customers, (11) the ability of the Company to acquire businesses and expand plants, integrate operations of acquired businesses and achieve expected synergies, (12) unanticipated expenditures with respect to environmental, safety and health laws, (13) the performance by customers of their obligations under purchase agreements, (14) the Company’s ability to further develop its sales, marketing and product development capabilities, (15) the Company’s ability to resolve its production and supply chain issues in North America, (16) the Company’s success in implementing necessary restructuring plans, and (17) the timing and occurrence of events which are beyond the control of the Company, including any expropriation of the Company’s operations, floods and other natural disasters, and events related to asbestos-related claims. It

 

54



 

is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. Any forward looking statements in this document are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from expectations. While the Company continually reviews trends and uncertainties affecting the Company’s results of operations and financial condition, the Company does not assume any obligation to update or supplement any particular forward looking statements contained in this document.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

 

There have been no material changes in market risk at June 30, 2011 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

 

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.  Also, the Company has investments in certain unconsolidated entities.  As the Company does not control or manage these entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those maintained with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2011.

 

Management concluded that the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.  As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of any change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.  There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. The Company is undertaking the phased implementation of a global Enterprise Resource Planning software system and believes it is maintaining and monitoring appropriate internal controls during the

 

55



 

implementation period.  The Company believes that its internal control environment will be enhanced as a result of this implementation.  The phased implementation was planned to be completed in the North America segment in 2011.  During the second quarter of 2011, the Company made the decision to delay the implementation in North America until early 2012 to allow the Company to focus on resolving the operational issues in this segment.
