LIBBEY INC. ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS:
IMPROVING TRENDS CONTINUE
•   Net Income of $2.7 Million, or $0.18 Per Diluted Share
 
•   Income From Operations of $11.5 Million
 
•   Normalized EBITDA of $25.2 Million
 
•   Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Sets a Record for Second-Quarter Performance of $24.7 Million
 
•   Free Cash Flow Improves by $23.3 Million Compared With Prior-Year Second Quarter
TOLEDO, OHIO, JULY 30, 2009—Libbey Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: LYBI) announced today that net sales were $195.8 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to $224.8 million in the prior-year second quarter. Libbey reported net income of $2.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the quarter-ended June 30, 2009, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the prior-year second quarter.
Working Capital and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2009, working capital, defined as inventories and accounts receivable less accounts payable, decreased by $10.5 million during the quarter and by $24.3 million year-to-date in 2009 from $206.9 million at December 31, 2008, to $182.6 million at June 30, 2009. This is primarily the result of significantly lower inventories as the Company continues to be successful in its cash management efforts. Working capital as a percentage of last twelve months net sales was 24.3 percent, eclipsing the first quarter of 2009 as the lowest percentage in over ten years.
Free cash flow, as detailed in the attached Table 3, was $20.1 million, compared to a use of $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2008. The primary contributors were the significant reduction in inventories and lower capital expenditures. For the first six

months of 2009, free cash flow as detailed in Table 3, was $29.6 million, compared to a use of $40.6 million during the first six months of 2008.
Libbey reported that it had available capacity of $56.6 million under its Asset Based Loan (ABL) credit facility as of June 30, 2009, and cash on hand of $24.1 million. This compares to availability of $49.0 million and cash on hand of $16.5 million at March 31, 2009.
John F. Meier, chairman and chief executive officer, commenting on the quarter said, “We continued our success in cash flow generation and inventory reduction for the quarter, resulting in improved liquidity.” Mr. Meier added, “Our U.S. retail shipments again led the way during the second quarter, as sales in this channel increased almost seven percent compared to the second quarter of 2008. Given overall increases in demand, primarily in North America, we have increased our scheduled capacity utilization in all three North American glass factories for the third quarter of 2009.”
Second Quarter Results
For the quarter-ended June 30, 2009, sales decreased 12.9 percent to $195.8 million from $224.8 million in the year-ago quarter. North American Glass sales decreased 11.1 percent to $137.7 million (see Table 4) from $155.0 million in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in sales was attributable to a 27.9 percent decrease in sales to Crisa customers (15.1 percent excluding the currency impact of the Mexican peso) and a 5.5 percent decline in sales to U.S. foodservice customers, partially offset by approximately 7.0 percent increase in shipments to retail glassware customers. North American Other sales decreased 19.2 percent, as shipments of Syracuse China products decreased approximately 34.0 percent and sales of Traex and World Tableware products decreased approximately 27.0 percent and 8.7 percent, respectively. International sales decreased 17.3 percent as the result of increased sales of 4.6 percent to customers of Libbey China, which were more than offset by lower sales at Royal Leerdam and Crisal of 17.3 percent and 20.5 percent, respectively. Excluding the negative currency impact, international sales decreased approximately 7.9 percent.
The Company reported income from operations of $11.5 million during the quarter, compared to income from operations of $18.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Normalized income from operations was $12.0 million during the quarter, as detailed in Table 1. Factors contributing to the decrease in normalized income from operations were a $5.6 million negative exchange rate impact (primarily in Mexico), lower sales and lower production activity partially offset by lower spending on labor, raw materials, packaging, repairs, natural gas, electricity and distribution costs.
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $14.2 million, compared to $19.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Normalized EBIT during the quarter, as detailed in Table 4, was $14.7 million. Normalized EBIT was $11.9 million for North American Glass, compared with $14.9 million in the second quarter of 2008, and the decrease was a result of the lower production activity in all locations and lower sales. North American Other reported normalized EBIT of $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2009, compared to $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2008. The International segment reported a

normalized EBIT loss of $0.9 million, compared to normalized EBIT of $0.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in EBIT was primarily related to lower international sales and lower capacity utilization.
Libbey reported that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (see Table 2) were $24.8 million in the second quarter of 2009 and normalized EBITDA was $25.2 million, compared to EBITDA (and normalized EBITDA) of $30.5 million in the year-ago quarter.
As a result of lower interest rates on slightly higher debt, interest expense decreased $0.1 million compared with the year-ago period.
The effective tax rate decreased to 181.1 percent for the quarter, compared to 225.9 percent in the year-ago quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter benefited by $3.6 million due to required intra-period tax allocations between loss from continuing operations and other comprehensive income in the U.S. and a $1.5 benefit related to the completion of a U.S. federal income tax examination. The effective tax rate was also influenced by valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory rates and tax planning structures. Libbey reported net income of $2.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2009, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million, or a loss of $0.14 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2008.
Six-Month Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, sales decreased 14.2 percent to $353.7 million from $412.1 million in the year-ago period. North American Glass sales decreased 12.7 percent to $246.5 million (see Table 4) from $282.5 million in the year-ago period. The lower sales were attributable to an approximate 28.5 percent decrease in Crisa’s sales (15.5 percent excluding the currency impact of the Mexican peso) and a 5.9 percent decrease in sales to foodservice glassware customers in the U.S. and Canada. With a solid 6.9 percent increase in sales during the second quarter, the U.S. retail channel delivered sales essentially equal to the all-time record retail sales performance during the first six months of 2008. North American Other sales decreased 19.4 percent as sales of Syracuse China, World Tableware and Traex were all lower than the first six months of 2008. International sales decreased 18.9 percent as a result of significantly decreased shipments to customers of Royal Leerdam and Crisal and unfavorable currency impact on European sales. Libbey China sales increased slightly for the first half of 2009 compared to the first six months of 2008. Excluding the currency impact, international sales decreased approximately 9.4 percent.
The Company reported a loss from operations of $0.6 million during the first six months of 2009, compared to income from operations of $28.2 million in the year-ago period. Normalized income from operations was $4.6 million for the first half of 2009 as detailed in Table 1. Factors contributing to the decrease in normalized income from operations were a $9.7 million negative exchange rate impact (primarily in Mexico and Europe), reduced capacity utilization, reflecting our effort to control inventories and generate cash, and lower sales. These factors were partially offset by lower spending on labor, raw materials, packaging, repairs, natural gas, electricity and distribution costs.

EBIT was $2.2 million in the first six months of 2009, compared to $29.5 million in the first six months of 2008. Normalized EBIT for the first six months of 2009, as detailed in Table 4, was $7.5 million. Normalized EBIT was $5.8 million during the first half of 2009, compared to normalized EBIT of $22.0 million in the first six months of 2008 for North American Glass, the decrease is a result of lower sales and decreased operating activity in U.S. and Mexican operations. North American Other reported normalized EBIT for the first half of 2009 of $5.0 million, compared to $7.5 million in the year-ago period, primarily as a result of the lower sales. The International segment reported a normalized EBIT loss of $3.3 million, compared to normalized EBIT of $0.1 million in the first six months of 2008. This performance was primarily related to decreased sales and lower capacity utilization.
Libbey reported that normalized EBITDA, as detailed in Table 2, was $29.1 million in the first six months of 2009, compared to EBITDA (and normalized EBITDA) of $52.1 million in the year-ago six-month period.
As a result of lower interest rates partially offset by slightly higher debt, interest expense decreased $0.1 million compared to the first half of 2008.
The effective tax rate was 22.5 percent for the first six months of 2009, compared to a negative 6.9 percent in the first half of 2008. The Company’s effective tax rate for the first six months benefited by $3.9 million due to required intra-period tax allocations between loss from continuing operations and other comprehensive income in the U.S. and a $1.5 benefit related to the completion of a U.S. federal income tax examination. The effective tax rate was also influenced by valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory rates, and tax planning structures. Libbey reported a net loss of $25.2 million for the first six months of 2009, or a loss of $1.70 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.6 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in the first half of 2008.

including the Company’s report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 16, 2009. Important factors potentially affecting performance include but are not limited to increased competition from foreign suppliers endeavoring to sell glass tableware in the United States and Mexico; the impact of lower duties for imported products; global economic conditions and the related impact on consumer spending levels; major slowdowns in the retail, travel or entertainment industries in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Western Europe and Asia, caused by terrorist attacks, pandemics or otherwise; significant increases in per-unit costs for natural gas, electricity, corrugated packaging, and other purchased materials; higher indebtedness related to the Crisa acquisition; higher interest rates that increase the Company’s borrowing costs or volatility in the financial markets that could constrain liquidity and credit availability; protracted work stoppages related to collective bargaining agreements; increases in expense associated with higher medical costs, increased pension expense associated with lower returns on pension investments and increased pension obligations; devaluations and other major currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar and the Euro that could reduce the cost competitiveness of the Company’s products compared to foreign competition; the effect of high inflation in Mexico and exchange rate changes to the value of the Mexican peso and the earnings and cash flow of Crisa, expressed under U.S. GAAP; the inability to achieve savings and profit improvements at targeted levels in the Company’s operations or within the intended time periods; and whether the Company completes any significant acquisition and whether such acquisitions can operate profitably.

In accordance with the SEC’s Regulation G, tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 provide non-GAAP measures used in this earnings release and a reconciliation to the most closely related Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (GAAP) measure. Libbey believes that providing supplemental non-GAAP financial information is useful to investors in understanding Libbey’s core business and trends. In addition, it is the basis on which Libbey’s management assesses performance. Although Libbey believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented enhance investors’ understanding of Libbey’s business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
