NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Eastman Chemical Company (the "Company" or "Eastman") in accordance and consistent with the accounting policies stated in the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The December 31, 2013 financial position data included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2013 Form 10-K but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP and of necessity include some amounts that are based upon management estimates and judgments.  Future actual results could differ from such current estimates.  The unaudited consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities, sales revenue, and expenses of all majority-owned subsidiaries and joint ventures in which a controlling interest is maintained.  Eastman accounts for other joint ventures and investments where it exercises significant influence on the equity basis.  Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.  Certain prior period data has been reclassified in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes to conform to current period presentation.

In second quarter 2014, the Company recognized $2 million, net of tax, in earnings from discontinued operations from final settlement of commercial litigation related to the previously discontinued polyethylene terephthalate ("PET") business.

2. ACQUISITIONS

BP plc's Global Aviation Turbine Engine Oil Business

On June 2, 2014, the Company acquired BP plc's global aviation turbine engine oil business ("aviation turbine oil business") for a total cash purchase price of $283 million, prior to post-closing adjustments. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and is reported in the Specialty Fluids & Intermediates ("SFI") segment. Added to the Skydrol^® aviation hydraulic fluids, the acquired aviation turbine oil business enables Eastman to better supply the global aviation industry. The initial accounting is not complete for all acquired assets and liabilities. The table below shows the preliminary fair value purchase price allocation for this acquisition:

(Dollars in millions)	As of June 2, 2014
Current assets	$	42
Machinery and equipment	11
Goodwill	68
Intangible assets	162
Total purchase price	$	283

Current assets consist primarily of inventory acquired. Machinery and equipment acquired included manufacturing operations in Linden, New Jersey and technology resources in Naperville, Illinois. Management valued machinery and equipment using the cost approach supported by published industry sources.

In connection with the purchase transaction, the Company recorded goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  All goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Intangible assets acquired included brands that are business-to-business in nature. Also acquired were customer relationships in the aviation industry. Management valued intangible assets using the relief from royalty and multi-period excess earnings methods, both forms of the income approach supported by observable market data for peer chemical companies.

(Dollars in millions)	Fair Value		Weighted-Average Amortization Period (Years)
Amortizable intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	66	15
Indefinite-lived intangible assets
Brands	96
Total	$	162

In second quarter 2014, the Company recognized $3 million and $1 million in transaction and integration costs, respectively, related to the acquisition.  Transaction and integration costs were expensed as incurred and are included in the "Selling, general and administrative expenses" line item in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings. As required by purchase accounting, the acquired inventories were marked to fair value. Approximately one quarter of these inventories were sold in second quarter 2014 resulting in a $2 million increase in cost of sales.

Beginning in June, the Company's consolidated results of operations included the results of the acquired aviation turbine oil business. Based on applicable accounting and reporting guidance, the acquisition is not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements; therefore, pro forma financial information has not been presented.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On May 15, 2014, the Company issued 4.65% notes due 2044 in the principal amount of $500 million. Proceeds from the sale of the notes, net of approximately $10 million in transaction costs, were $490 million.

Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Borrowings

The Company has access to borrowings under a $1 billion revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Facility") expiring October 2018.  Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to interest at varying spreads above quoted market rates and a commitment fee is paid on the total unused commitment. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

The Credit Facility provides liquidity support for commercial paper borrowings and general corporate purposes.  Accordingly, any outstanding commercial paper borrowings reduce capacity for borrowings available under the Credit Facility.  Given the expiration date of the Credit Facility, any commercial paper borrowings supported by the Credit Facility are classified as long-term borrowings because the Company has the ability and intent to refinance such borrowings on a long-term basis. At June 30, 2014 the Company's commercial paper borrowings were $451 million with a weighted average interest rate of 0.29 percent. At December 31, 2013 the Company's commercial paper borrowings were $425 million with a weighted average interest rate of 0.35 percent.

The Company also has a $250 million line of credit under its accounts receivable securitization agreement (the "A/R Facility"), expiring April 2016.  Borrowings under the A/R Facility are subject to interest rates based on a spread over the lender's borrowing costs, and the Company pays a fee to maintain availability of the A/R Facility.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the A/R Facility. During first quarter2014$125 million of the available amount under the A/R Facility was borrowed and then repaid during second quarter 2014.

The Credit Facility and the A/R Facility contain a number of customary covenants and events of default, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants for all periods presented.  Total available borrowings under the Credit Facility and A/R Facility were $799 million and $825 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company would not violate applicable covenants for these periods if the total available amounts of the facilities had been borrowed.

Fair Value of Borrowings

The Company has classified its long-term borrowings at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 under the fair value hierarchy as defined in the accounting policies in Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The fair value for fixed-rate borrowings is based on current market prices and is classified as Level 1.  The fair value for the Company's floating-rate borrowings, which relate to the A/R Facility and commercial paper, equals the carrying value and is classified as Level 2.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

7. DERIVATIVES

Hedging Programs

The Company is exposed to market risk, such as changes in currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates.  The Company uses various derivative financial instruments when appropriate pursuant to the Company's hedging policies to mitigate these market risk factors and their effect on the cash flows of the underlying transactions.  Designation is performed on a specific exposure basis to support hedge accounting.  The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged.  The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.  For further information, see Note 10, "Derivatives", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Fair Value Hedges

Fair value hedges are defined as derivative or non-derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk.  For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings.  In second quarter2014, the Company entered into interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate risk on the 3.6% notes due 2022. As of June 30, 2014, the total notional amount of the Company's interest rate swaps was $400 million. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no fair value hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

Cash flow hedges are derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk.  For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income, net of income taxes and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.  Gains and losses on the derivatives representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

As of June 30, 2014, the total notional amounts of the Company's foreign exchange forward and option contracts were €954 million (approximately $1,320 million equivalent) and ¥6.6 billion (approximately $65 million equivalent). The total notional volume hedged for feedstock was 15 million barrels and for energy was 4 million mmbtu ("million british thermal units"). The Company had no outstanding hedges for energy or interest rate swaps for the future issuance of debt ("forward starting interest rate swaps") at June 30, 2014.

As of December 31, 2013, the total notional amounts of the Company's foreign exchange forward and option contracts were €954 million (approximately $1,320 million equivalent) and ¥8.3 billion (approximately $80 million equivalent). The total notional volume hedged for feedstock was approximately 8 million barrels.  The Company had no outstanding hedges for energy or forward starting interest rate swaps.

Fair Value Measurements

For additional information on fair value measurement, see Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company's derivative assets are currently classified as Level 2.  Level 2 fair value is based on estimates using standard pricing models.  These standard pricing models use inputs which are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves and currency spot and forward rates.  The fair value of commodity contracts is derived using forward curves supplied by an industry recognized and unrelated third party.  In addition, on an ongoing basis, the Company tests a subset of its valuations against valuations received from the transaction's counterparty to validate the accuracy of its standard pricing models.  Counterparties to these derivative contracts are highly rated financial institutions which the Company believes carry only a minimal risk of nonperformance.

From time to time, the Company holds Level 3 assets for commodity hedges.  The fair values of Level 3 instruments are determined using pricing data similar to that used in Level 2 financial instruments described above, and reflect adjustments for less liquid markets or longer contractual terms.  Level 3 hedges typically will mature within one year or less.  The Company determines the fair value of Level 3 commodity forward contracts based on related inputs that are either readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets, and which influence the actual forward price of the commodity.  Due to the fact that the forward price of the commodity itself is considered unobservable, the Company has categorized these forward contracts as Level 3.

The table below presents a rollforward of activity for these assets (liabilities) for the period ended June 30, 2014:

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following chart shows the financial assets and liabilities valued on a recurring basis and their location in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.  The Company had no nonqualifying derivatives or derivatives that are not designated as hedges as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. All of the Company's derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements, or similar agreements, which provide for the option to settle contracts on a net basis when they settle on the same day and the same currency. In addition, these arrangements provide for a net settlement of all contracts with a given counterparty in the event that the arrangement is terminated due to the occurrence of default or a termination event. The Company has elected to present the derivative contracts on a gross basis in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Had it chosen to present the derivatives contracts on a net basis, it would have a derivative in a net asset position of $29 million and a derivative in a net liability position of $20 million as of June 30, 2014. The Company does not have any cash collateral due under such agreements.

9. COMMITMENTS

Purchase Obligations and Lease Commitments

The Company had various purchase obligations at June 30, 2014 totaling $2.1 billionover a period of approximately 30 years for materials, supplies, and energy incident to the ordinary conduct of business.  The Company also had various lease commitments for property and equipment under cancelable, noncancelable, and month-to-month operating leases totaling $261 million over a similar number of years.  Of the total lease commitments, approximately 60 percent relate to real property, including office space, storage facilities, and land; approximately 30 percent relate to railcars; and approximately 10 percent relate to machinery and equipment, including computer and communications equipment and production equipment.

17

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Guarantees

The Company has operating leases with terms that require the Company to guarantee a portion of the residual value of the leased assets upon termination of the lease as well as other guarantees.  Disclosures about each group of similar guarantees are provided below.

Residual Value Guarantees

The Company has operating leases with terms that require the Company to guarantee a portion of the residual value of the leased assets upon termination of the lease.  These residual value guarantees at June 30, 2014 totaled $121 million and consisted primarily of leases for railcars and company aircraft and will expire beginning in 2016.  Management believes, based on current facts and circumstances, that the likelihood of material residual guarantee payments is remote.

Other Guarantees

Guarantees and claims also arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with joint venture partners, suppliers, customers, and other parties when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others, if specified triggering events occur.  Non-performance under a contract could trigger an obligation of the Company.  The Company's current other guarantees include guarantees relating primarily to intellectual property, environmental matters, and other indemnifications and have arisen through the normal course of business.  The ultimate effect on future financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists as to the final outcome of these claims, if they were to occur.  These other guarantees have terms between 1 and 15 years with maximum potential future payments of $22 million in the aggregate, with none of these guarantees being individually significant to the Company's operating results, financial position, or liquidity.  The Company's current expectation is that future payment or performance related to non-performance under other guarantees is considered remote.

10. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

Certain Eastman manufacturing sites generate hazardous and nonhazardous wastes, the treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal of which are regulated by various governmental agencies.  In connection with the cleanup of various hazardous waste sites, the Company, along with many other entities, has been designated a potentially responsible party ("PRP") by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which potentially subjects PRPs to joint and several liability for such cleanup costs.  In addition, the Company will be required to incur costs for environmental remediation and closure and postclosure under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.  Reserves for environmental contingencies have been established in accordance with Eastman's policies described in Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company's total reserve for environmental contingencies was $354 million and $368 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, this reserve included $10 million and $9 million, respectively, related to sites previously closed and impaired by Eastman and sites that have been divested by Eastman but for which the Company retains the environmental liability related to these sites.

Estimated future environmental expenditures for remediation costs ranged from the minimum or best estimate of $334 million to the maximum of $570 million and from the minimum or best estimate of $341 million to the maximum of $581 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  The maximum estimated future costs are considered to be reasonably possible and include the amounts accrued at both June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.  Although the resolution of uncertainties related to these environmental matters may have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations in the period recognized, because of the availability of legal defenses, the Company's preliminary assessment of actions that may be required, and if applicable, the expected sharing of costs, management does not believe that the Company's liability for these environmental matters, individually or in the aggregate, will be material to the Company's consolidated financial position or cash flows.  

For facilities that have environmental asset retirement obligations, the best estimate accrued to date over the facilities' estimated useful lives for these environmental asset retirement obligation costs was $20 million and $27 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

In both second quarter and first six months2014, common shares underlying options to purchase 210,143 shares of common stock were excluded from the shares treated as outstanding for computation of diluted earnings per share because the total market value of option exercises for these awards was less than the total cash proceeds that would be received for these exercises. Second quarter and first six months2014 reflect the impact of share repurchases of 1,153,784 and 4,326,556 shares, respectively.

In second quarter and first six months2013, common shares underlying options to purchase 317,879 and 121,070 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the shares treated as outstanding for computation of diluted earnings per share because the total market value of option exercises for these awards was less than the total cash proceeds that would be received for these exercises. Second quarter and first six months2013 reflect the impact of share repurchases of 670,200 and 1,115,700 shares, respectively.

The Company declared cash dividends of $0.35 and $0.30 per share in second quarter2014 and 2013, respectively, and $0.70 and $0.60 per share in first six months 2014 and 2013, respectively.

14. ASSET IMPAIRMENTS AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES (GAINS), NET

In second quarter and first six months2014, there were net asset impairments and restructuring gains of $7 million and charges of $6 million, respectively.

During second quarter 2014, the Company recognized gains from the sales of previously impaired assets at the former Photovoltaics production facility in Germany and a former polymers production facility in China of $5 million and $2 million, respectively.

In first six months 2014, charges consisted of $8 million of asset impairments, including intangible assets, and $2 million of restructuring charges in the Advanced Materials ("AM") segment primarily due to the closure of a production facility in Taiwan for the Flexvue^® product line. First six months 2014 also included $3 million of restructuring charges for severance associated with the continued integration of Solutia.

In second quarter and first six months2013, there were net asset impairments and restructuring charges of $18 million and $21 million, respectively.

During second quarter2013, management decided to shut-down the Photovoltaics product line, including the primary production facility in Germany. This resulted in the Company recognizing asset impairments of $7 million and restructuring charges of $5 million including charges for severance. During second quarter2013, management also approved and recorded severance charges of $6 million primarily for a voluntary separation plan for certain employees.

During second quarter2013, a change in estimate for certain costs associated with the fourth quarter 2012 termination of the operating agreement for the Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil site resulted in a reduction of $4 million to previously recorded asset impairments and restructuring charges.

In second quarter and first six months2013, there were $3 million and $6 million, respectively, of restructuring charges primarily for severance associated with the continued integration of Solutia.

Changes in Reserves for Asset Impairments, Restructuring Charges (Gains), and Severance Charges

18. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued amended accounting guidance for discontinued operations. The amendments improve the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals of components of an entity that represents strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on any entity's operations and financial results. Examples of a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results could include a disposal of a major geographical area, a major line of business, a major equity method investment, or other major parts of an entity. The amendments require an entity to present, for each comparative period, the assets and liabilities of a disposal group that includes a discontinued operation separately in the assets and liability sections, respectively, of the statement of financial position. In addition to enhanced disclosures for discontinued operations, disclosures are required for disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. This guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company has concluded that changes in its accounting required by this new guidance will not materially impact the Company's future accounting for any discontinued operations or its financial position or results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board jointly issued new principles-based accounting guidance for revenue recognition that will supersede virtually all existing revenue guidance. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve the core principle, the guidance establishes the following five steps: 1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, 2) identify the performance obligation in the contract, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The guidance also details the accounting treatment for costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. Lastly, disclosure requirements have been enhanced to provide sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations and related disclosures.

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is based upon the consolidated financial statements for Eastman Chemical Company ("Eastman" or the "Company"), which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, including related notes, and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements, including related notes, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All references to earnings per share ("EPS") contained in this report are diluted earnings from continuing operations per share unless otherwise noted.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, the Company's management must make decisions which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and assumptions on which to base estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to allowances for doubtful accounts, impairment of long-lived assets, environmental costs, pension and other postretirement benefits, litigation and contingent liabilities, income taxes, and purchase accounting. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company's management believes the critical accounting estimates described in Part II, Item 7 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K are the most important to the fair presentation of the Company's financial condition and results. These estimates require management's most significant judgments in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements.

29

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to evaluating the Company's financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows as reported in accordance with GAAP, Eastman management also evaluates Company and operating segment performance, and makes resource allocation and performance evaluation decisions, excluding the effect of transactions, costs, and losses or gains that do not directly arise from Eastman's normal, or "core", business and operations, or are otherwise of an unusual or non-recurring nature. These transactions, costs, and losses or gains relate to, among other things, cost reduction, growth and profitability improvement initiatives, and other events outside of core business operations (such as mark-to-market losses or gains for pension and other postretirement benefit plans, typically in the fourth quarter of each year and any other quarters in which an interim remeasurement is triggered). Because non-core or non-recurring transactions, costs, and losses or gains may materially affect the Company's, or any particular operating segment's, financial condition or results in a specific period in which they are recognized, Eastman believes it is appropriate to evaluate both the financial measures prepared and calculated in accordance with GAAP and the related non-GAAP financial measures excluding the effect on our results of these non-core or non-recurring items. In addition to using such measures to evaluate results in a specific period, management evaluates such non-GAAP measures, and believes that investors may also evaluate such measures, because such measures may provide more complete and consistent comparisons of the Company's, and its segments', operational performance on a period-over-period historical basis and, as a result, provide a better indication of expected future trends. Management discloses these non-GAAP measures, and the related reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, because it believes investors use these metrics in evaluating longer term period-over-period performance, and to allow investors to better understand and evaluate the information used by management to assess the Company's, and its operating segments', performance, make resource allocation decisions and evaluate organizational and individual performance in determining certain performance-based compensation. Non-GAAP measures do not have definitions under GAAP, and may be defined differently by, and not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, management cautions investors not to place undue reliance on any non-GAAP measure, but to consider such measures with the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

The non-core or non-recurring items excluded by management in its evaluation of certain results in this Quarterly Report are:

• Costs resulting from the sale of acquired BP plc global aviation turbine engine oil business (the "aviation turbine oil business") inventories at fair value (as required by purchase accounting, these inventories were marked to fair value and a portion sold in second quarter 2014);

• Transaction and integration costs from the Solutia and aviation turbine oil business acquisitions which are non-core costs; and

• Asset impairments and restructuring charges and gains, net, which, other than severance costs, are not cash transactions impacting profitability,

in each case for the periods and in the amounts in the table below.

This MD&A includes the effect of the foregoing on the following financial measures:

• Gross profit,

• Selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses,

• Operating earnings,

• Earnings from continuing operations, and

• Diluted earnings per share.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

These non-GAAP financial measures, and the accompanying reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures, are presented in "Overview", "Results of Operations", and "Summary by Operating Segment" in this MD&A.

In addition to the non-GAAP measures presented in this Quarterly Report and other periodic reports, from time to time management evaluates and discloses to investors and securities analysts the non-GAAP measure cash provided by operating activities excluding certain non-core or non-recurring items ("cash provided by operating activities, as adjusted") when analyzing, among other things, business performance, liquidity and financial position, and performance-based compensation.  Eastman management uses this non-GAAP measure in conjunction with the GAAP measure cash provided by operating activities because it believes it is a more appropriate metric to evaluate the cash flows from Eastman's core operations that are available to grow the business and create stockholder value, and because it allows for a more consistent period-over-period presentation of such amounts.  In its evaluation, Eastman management generally excludes the impact of certain non-core activities and decisions of management because such activities and decisions are not considered core, ongoing components of operations and the decisions to undertake or not to undertake such activities may be made irrespective of the cash generated from operations.  From time to time, management discloses this non-GAAP measure and the related reconciliation to investors and securities analysts to allow them to better understand and evaluate the information used by management in its decision making processes and because management believes investors and securities analysts use similar measures to assess Company performance, liquidity, and financial position over multiple periods and to compare these with other companies.

Similarly, from time to time, Eastman may disclose to investors and securities analysts one or both of alternative non-GAAP measures of "free cash flow", which management defines as (i) cash provided by operating activities, as adjusted, described above, less the amounts of capital expenditures and dividends, and (ii) cash provided by operating activities, as adjusted, described above, less the amount of capital expenditures. Management believes such items are generally funded from available cash and, as such, should be considered in determining free cash flow.  Eastman management believes these are appropriate metrics to use to evaluate the Company's overall ability to generate cash to fund future operations, inorganic growth opportunities, and to meet the Company's debt repayment obligations.  Management believes these metrics are useful to investors and securities analysts in order to provide them with information similar to that used by management in evaluating potential future cash available for various initiatives and because management believes investors and securities analysts often use a similar measure of free cash flow to compare the results, and value, of comparable companies.

OVERVIEW

Eastman's portfolio of specialty businesses holds leading market positions and manufactures products that enhance performance in a variety of end markets such as transportation, building and construction, and consumables. Management believes that despite ongoing economic uncertainty, the Company's key end markets generally benefited from modest global economic growth. Eastman management believes that the Company's global market and manufacturing presence, and vertically integrated manufacturing streams, combined with global trends such as energy efficiency, a rising middle class in emerging economies, and increased health and wellness will continue to support the Company's achievement of its growth objectives in the long term.

The Company generated sales revenue of $2.5 billion and $2.4 billion in second quarter2014 and 2013, respectively, and sales revenue of $4.8 billion and $4.7 billion in first six months2014 and 2013, respectively.

Operating earnings were $436 million in second quarter2014 compared with $428 million in second quarter2013.  Excluding the non-core or non-recurring items referenced in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures", operating earnings in second quarter2014 and 2013 were $441 million and $454 million, respectively. The decline was primarily due to lower Specialty Fluids & Intermediates ("SFI") segment operating earnings of $22 million, including the negative impact of higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane. The previously announced unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport, Tennessee facility negatively impacted second quarter 2014 operating earnings by approximately $10 million, primarily due to resulting costs, in the Advanced Materials ("AM"), Fibers, and SFI segments.

Operating earnings were $797 million in first six months2014 compared with $821 million in first six months 2013. Excluding the non-core or non-recurring items referenced in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures", operating earnings in first six months2014 and 2013 were $824 million and $857 million, respectively. The decline was primarily due to lower SFI segment operating earnings of $53 million, including the negative impact of higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As described in more detail in "Results of Operations", earnings from continuing operations and diluted earnings per share attributable to Eastman are as follows:

⁽¹⁾  Excludes the non-core or non-recurring items referenced in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures".

The Company generated $389 million in cash from operating activities in first six months2014 compared with cash provided by operating activities of $367 million in first six months2013.  The increase in cash from operating activities was primarily due to lower tax payments partially offset by higher variable compensation. Variable compensation increased primarily due to changes in design of certain variable compensation programs.

In 2014, the Company made progress on both organic (internal growth) and inorganic (external growth through joint venture and acquisition) growth initiatives including:

• In the Adhesives & Plasticizers ("A&P") segment:

◦ completing the capacity expansion of its Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizers at its manufacturing facility in Texas City, Texas in second quarter 2014.

• in the AM segment:

◦ continuing the expansion of Eastman Tritan^TM copolyester capacity at the Kingsport, Tennessee manufacturing facility which is expected to be operational in the second half of 2014 to meet demand for Eastman Tritan^TM copolyester; and

◦ entering into a definitive agreement to acquire Commonwealth Laminating & Coating, Inc., a specialty films business. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the second half of 2014.

• in the SFI segment:

◦ continuing a Therminol^® heat transfer fluid capacity expansion in Newport, Wales, which is expected to be operational in the first half of 2015 to support expected demand in the industrial chemicals and processing market; and

◦ completing the acquisition of the aviation turbine oil business from BP plc. Added to the segment's Skydrol^® aviation hydraulic fluids, the acquired aviation turbine oil business enables Eastman to better supply the global aviation industry.

Gross Profit excluding non-core or non-recurring items	$	659	$	677	(3	)%	$	1,254	$	1,293	(3	)%

Gross profit decreased in second quarter and first six months2014 compared with second quarter and first six months2013 by $20 million and $41 million, respectively. Gross profit decreased primarily in the SFI segment due to lower sales volume of $13 million and $22 million, respectively, and higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane, exceeding higher selling prices by $5 million and $24 million, respectively. The previously announced unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport facility negatively impacted second quarter and first six months 2014 gross profit by approximately $10 million, primarily costs, in the AM, Fibers, and SFI segments.

Gross profit in second quarter and first six months2014 was negatively impacted by $2 million for the sale of the acquired aviation turbine oil business inventories, which were marked to fair value as required by purchase accounting. For more information see Note 2, "Acquisitions", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Research and Development Expenses	$	56	$	51	10	%	$	109	$	100	9	%

Research and development ("R&D") expenses were higher in second quarter and first six months2014 compared to second quarter and first six months2013 primarily due to increased R&D for growth initiatives in the AM and Additives & Functional Products ("AFP") segments.

Asset Impairments and Restructuring (Gains) Charges, Net

In second quarter and first six months2014, there were net asset impairments and restructuring gains of $7 million and charges of $6 million, respectively.

During second quarter 2014, the Company recognized gains from the sale of previously impaired assets at the former Photovoltaics production facility in Germany and a former polymers production facility in China of $5 million and $2 million, respectively.

In first six months 2014, charges consisted of $8 million of asset impairments, including intangible assets, and $2 million of restructuring charges in the AM segment primarily due to the closure of a production facility in Taiwan for the Flexvue^® product line. First six months 2014 also included $3 million of restructuring charges for severance associated with the continued integration of Solutia.

In second quarter and first six months2013, there were net asset impairments and restructuring charges of $18 million and $21 million, respectively.

During second quarter2013, management decided to shut-down the Photovoltaics product line, including the primary production facility in Germany. This resulted in the Company recognizing asset impairments of $7 million and restructuring charges of $5 million including charges for severance. During second quarter2013, management also approved and recorded severance charges of $6 million primarily for a voluntary separation plan for certain employees.

During second quarter2013, a change in estimate for certain costs associated with the fourth quarter 2012 termination of the operating agreement for the Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil site resulted in a reduction of $4 million to previously recorded asset impairments and restructuring charges.

In second quarter and first six months2013, there were $3 million and $6 million, respectively, of restructuring charges primarily for severance associated with the continued integration of Solutia.

For more information regarding asset impairments and restructuring charges and gains see Note 14, "Asset Impairments and Restructuring Charges (Gains), Net", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operating earnings in second quarter2014 were relatively unchanged compared to second quarter2013. Operating earnings in second quarter2014 included a gain of approximately $2 million for previously impaired assets at a former polymers production facility in China. Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings decreased slightly in second quarter 2014 compared to second quarter 2013. The decrease was primarily due to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane, offsetting slightly higher selling prices for polymer product lines by $9 million and $3 million costs of refinement and enhancement of Crystex^® insoluble sulfur rubber additive technology. The decrease was mostly offset by $9 million of higher sales volume.

Operating earnings in first six months2014 decreased compared to first six months2013. Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings decreased in first six months 2014 compared to first six months 2013. The decrease was primarily due to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane, offsetting slightly higher selling prices for polymer product lines by $14 million and $5 million costs of refinement and enhancement of Crystex^® insoluble sulfur rubber additive technology. The decrease was partially offset by $11 million of higher sales volume.

The Company continues to make progress in the refinement and enhancement of its technology for the manufacture of Crystex^® insoluble sulfur rubber additive in order to improve its cost position and introduce a higher performance product into the tires industry market. The Company continues to evaluate timing of incorporating this technology into a capacity expansion at the Kuantan, Malaysia manufacturing facility to capitalize on expected high industrial growth rates in the Asia Pacific region.

Sales revenue in second quarter and first six months2014 increased compared to second quarter and first six months2013 primarily due to higher sales volume more than offsetting lower selling prices. Higher sales volume for adhesives resins product lines, primarily in Europe, was mostly attributed to stronger end-market demand, particularly for hygiene and packaging, and customer inventory destocking that negatively impacted second quarter and first six months 2013. Higher sales volume for plasticizers product lines was primarily attributed to the timing of substitution of phthalate plasticizers with Eastman non-phthalate plasticizers. Lower selling prices for adhesives resins product lines were primarily due to continued competitive pressure resulting from greater industry supply attributed to increased availability of key raw materials and additional competitor capacity. Lower selling prices for plasticizers product lines were primarily attributed to continued competitive pressures resulting from weakened demand in Asia Pacific and Europe.

Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings increased in second quarter and first six months2014 primarily due to higher sales volume of $10 million and $14 million, respectively, and lower operating costs including the benefit of higher capacity utilization that resulted in lower unit costs and targeted cost reductions of $7 million and $14 million, respectively, more than offsetting lower selling prices and slightly higher raw material and energy costs of $14 million and $27 million, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Expansion of Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizers' capacity at the manufacturing facility in Texas City, Texas was completed in second quarter 2014.

In 2012, the Company announced a joint venture to build a hydrogenated hydrocarbon resin plant in Nanjing, China.  The venture will be equally owned by Eastman and Sinopec Yangzi Petrochemical Company Limited. The Company and Sinopec Yangzi Petrochemical Company Limited continue to evaluate the timing depending upon market conditions for hydrogenated hydrocarbon resins. The facility is expected to produce 50,000 metric tons of the A&P segment's Regalite™ hydrogenated hydrocarbon resins upon completion, increasing Eastman's total capacity for hydrogenated resins by 50 percent, making Eastman the largest global supplier of hydrogenated hydrocarbon resins, and supporting expected demand growth for its products in hygiene and packaging applications.

Sales revenue in second quarter and first six months2014 increased slightly compared to second quarter and first six months2013 as higher sales volume for interlayers with acoustic properties and Eastman Tritan™ copolyester was mostly offset by lower sales volume for Flexure^® coated films.

Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings in second quarter2014 were relatively unchanged compared to second quarter2013. Second quarter 2014 operating earnings were negatively impacted by $3 million, primarily costs, for the unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport site.

Operating earnings in first six months2014 decreased slightly compared to first six months2013. Operating earnings in first six months2014 included asset impairments and restructuring charges of $10 million primarily for the closure of a production facility in Taiwan for the Flexvue^® product line. Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings increased in first six months2014 compared to first six months2013 primarily due to lower unit costs for specialty plastics. The lower unit costs were due to higher capacity utilization resulting from previous inventory management decisions.

In 2013, the Company began the expansion of Eastman Tritan^TM copolyester capacity at its Kingsport, Tennessee manufacturing facility. This expansion is expected to be operational in the second half of 2014.

The Company is also progressing on enhancements and innovations to improve its cost position in its polyvinyl butyral ("PVB") resin technology supporting growth in the transportation and building and construction markets in the Asia Pacific region. The Company continues to evaluate timing of a capacity expansion at the Kuantan, Malaysia PVB manufacturing facility.

In March 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Commonwealth Laminating & Coating, Inc., a specialty films business. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the second half of 2014.

Sales revenue in second quarter2014 increased compared to second quarter2013 primarily due to higher selling prices and sales of acetate flake to Eastman's China acetate tow joint venture more than offsetting lower acetate tow sales volume. The lower acetate tow sales volume was primarily attributed to additional industry capacity including Eastman's China acetate tow joint venture.

Sales revenue in first six months2014 increased compared to first six months2013 primarily due to higher selling prices more than offsetting slightly lower sales volume. Lower sales volume for acetate tow, primarily attributed to additional industry capacity including Eastman's China acetate tow joint venture, was mostly offset by higher acetate flake sales volume to Eastman's China acetate tow joint venture.

Operating earnings in second quarter and first six months2014 increased compared to second quarter and first six months2013 primarily due to $17 million and $34 million, respectively, of higher selling prices and slightly lower raw material and energy costs, mostly offset by $11 million and $30 million, respectively, in lower sales volume for acetate tow and related lower capacity utilization resulting in higher unit costs. In addition, operating earnings increased by $4 million and $12 million, respectively, due to higher acetate flake sales to Eastman's China acetate tow joint venture. Second quarter and first six months 2014 operating earnings were negatively impacted by $3 million, primarily costs, for the unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport site.

Sales revenue in second quarter2014 decreased compared to second quarter2013 partly due to a decrease in sales volume resulting from the first quarter weather-related outage at the Longview, Texas site and the second quarter unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport site. Sales revenue was also negatively impacted by lower sales volume for olefin-based intermediates products resulting from increased use of intermediates in the manufacture of higher-value downstream derivatives in other segments. The sales revenue decrease was partially offset by higher selling prices and higher sales volume for acetyl-based product lines.

Sales revenue in first six months2014 decreased compared to first six months2013 partly due to a decrease in sales volume resulting from the first quarter weather-related outage at the Longview, Texas site and the second quarter unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport site. Sales revenue was also negatively impacted by lower sales volume for olefin-based intermediates products resulting from increased use of intermediates in the manufacture of higher-value downstream derivatives in other segments and lower sales volume for specialty fluids, primarily due to the timing of customer project completions. The sales revenue decrease was partially offset by higher selling prices and higher sales volume for acetyl-based product lines and higher selling prices for specialty fluids products.

Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings decreased in second quarter2014 primarily due to lower sales volume of $13 million and higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane, exceeding higher selling prices by $5 million. Second quarter 2014 operating earnings were also negatively impacted by $3 million, primarily costs, for the unplanned shutdown at the Kingsport site. Operating earnings in second quarter 2014 included $2 million of additional costs of the acquired aviation turbine oil business inventories. Restructuring charges of $1 million in second quarter 2013 were primarily for severance for a voluntary separation plan for certain employees.

Excluding non-core or non-recurring items, operating earnings decreased in first six months2014 primarily due to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for propane, exceeding higher selling prices by $24 million and $22 million from lower sales volume. First six months 2014 operating earnings were also negatively impacted by $6 million of costs for the weather-related outage at the Longview Texas, facility. Operating earnings in first six months2014 included $2 million of additional costs of the acquired aviation turbine oil business inventories.

The Company began a Therminol^® heat transfer fluid capacity expansion in Newport, Wales, which is expected to be operational in first half 2015 to support expected demand in the industrial chemicals and processing market. In 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with Enterprise Products Partners L.P. to purchase propylene from a planned propane dehydrogenation plant expected to be operational in 2016, which is expected to further improve the Company's competitive cost position compared to purchasing olefins in the North American market. Prior to completion of the plant, the Company continues to benefit from a propylene market contract improving its cost position for purchased propylene.

41

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company continues to actively pursue options with third parties for monetizing the Company's excess ethylene capacity while retaining its cost-advantaged integrated position to propylene.

The Company is also actively pursuing licensing opportunities for acetyls, oxo derivatives, and mono ethylene glycol, including the development, in conjunction with a third party, of advanced proprietary technology for the production of mono ethylene glycol from synthesis gas-based feedstocks.

On June 2, 2014, the Company acquired the aviation turbine oil business. Added to the segment's Skydrol^® aviation hydraulic fluids, the acquired aviation turbine oil business enables Eastman to better supply the global aviation industry. Beginning in June, the Company's consolidated results of operations included the results of the acquired aviation turbine oil business.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

With a substantial portion of sales to customers outside the United States, Eastman is subject to the risks associated with operating in international markets.  To mitigate its exchange rate risks, the Company frequently seeks to negotiate payment terms in U.S. dollars or euros.  In addition, where it deems such actions advisable, the Company engages in foreign currency hedging transactions and requires letters of credit and prepayment for shipments where its assessment of individual customer and country risks indicates their use is appropriate.  For additional information concerning these practices, see Note 10, "Derivatives", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 and Part II, Item 7A "Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk" of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Variable compensation increased primarily due to changes in design of certain variable compensation programs.

Cash used in investing activities increased $333 million in first six months2014 compared with first six months2013. The increase was primarily due to cash used for the acquisition of the aviation turbine oil business in first six months2014. Cash used for additions to properties and equipment was $254 million in first six months 2014 and $187 million in first six months 2013.

Cash provided by financing activities was $71 million in first six months2014 compared with $190 million used in first six months2013.  During first six months 2014, the Company had net proceeds of $490 million from the issuance of new debt and $26 million from commercial paper borrowings. During first six months2013, the Company had net proceeds of $300 million from commercial paper borrowings and $150 million from its accounts receivable securitization facility (the "A/R Facility"), and repaid $550 million of borrowings under the Term Loan. Share repurchases totaled $360 million in first six months 2014 compared with $78 million in first six months 2013. Dividend payments were $106 million in first six months 2014 and $47 million in first six months 2013. The fourth quarter 2012 dividend of $45 million was paid in December 2012 rather than January 2013.

In 2014, the Company expects capital expenditures of approximately $575 million and funding of its U.S. defined benefit pension plans of $120 million.  The priorities for uses of available cash in 2014 are expected to be funding growth initiatives and returning cash to stockholders by dividend payments and stock repurchases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2014, the Company had access to the sources of liquidity described below.

The Company has access to borrowings under a $1 billion revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Facility") expiring October 2018.  Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to interest at varying spreads above quoted market rates and a commitment fee is paid on the total unused commitment. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

44

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Credit Facility provides liquidity support for commercial paper borrowings and general corporate purposes.  Accordingly, any outstanding commercial paper borrowings reduce capacity for borrowings available under the Credit Facility.  Given the expiration date of the Credit Facility, any commercial paper borrowings supported by the Credit Facility are classified as long-term borrowings because the Company has the ability and intent to refinance such borrowings on a long-term basis. At June 30, 2014 the Company's commercial paper borrowings were $451 million with a weighted average interest rate of 0.29 percent. At December 31, 2013 the Company's commercial paper borrowings were $425 million with a weighted average interest rate of 0.35 percent.

The Company also has a $250 million line of credit under its accounts receivable securitization agreement (the "A/R Facility"), expiring April 2016.  Borrowings under the A/R Facility are subject to interest rates based on a spread over the lender's borrowing costs, and the Company pays a fee to maintain availability of the A/R Facility.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the A/R Facility. During first quarter2014 $125 million of the available amount under the A/R Facility was borrowed and then repaid during second quarter 2014.

The Credit Facility and the A/R Facility contain a number of customary covenants and events of default, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants for all periods presented.  Total available borrowings under the Credit Facility and A/R Facility were $799 million and $825 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company would not violate applicable covenants for these periods if the total available amounts of the facilities had been borrowed.

In first six months2014, the Company made $27 million in contributions to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. In 2014, the Company expects U.S. defined benefit pension plan funding of $120 million, of which approximately $60 million is the minimum required cash contribution under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Excess contributions are periodically made by management in order to keep the plans' funded status above 80 percent under the funding provisions of the Pension Protection Act to avoid partial benefit restrictions on accelerated forms of payment. The Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plans are not currently under any benefit restrictions.

The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments.  An analysis of trends including the aging of accounts receivable and days sales outstanding is performed on a regular basis in order to ensure appropriate adjustments are made to the allowance for doubtful accounts in a timely manner.  No significant variances were identified in the trend analysis performed for second quarter2014 compared to first quarter 2013.  The Company believes, based on historical results and its regular analysis, the likelihood of write-offs having a material impact on financial results is remote.

Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and the other sources of liquidity described above are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements.  However, the Company's cash flows from operations can be affected by numerous factors including risks associated with global operations, raw material availability and cost, demand for and pricing of Eastman's products, capacity utilization, and other factors described under "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" below.  Eastman management believes maintaining a financial profile consistent with an investment grade credit rating is important to its long-term strategic and financial flexibility.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures were $254 million and $187 million in first six months2014 and 2013, respectively.  The expenditures in first six months2014 were primarily for improvements to plants, purchases of equipment, and organic growth initiatives particularly in the SFI and AM segments.  The expenditures in first six months 2013 were primarily for improvements to plants and equipment and organic growth initiatives particularly in the SFI segment. The Company expects that 2014 capital spending will be approximately $575 million, including capital investment that will modernize and expand the Kingsport, Tennessee site, and a Therminol^® heat transfer fluid capacity expansion in Newport, Wales.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Environmental Matters

Certain Eastman manufacturing sites generate hazardous and nonhazardous wastes, the treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal of which are regulated by various governmental agencies.  In connection with the cleanup of various hazardous waste sites, the Company, along with many other entities, has been designated a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which potentially subjects PRPs to joint and several liability for such cleanup costs.  In addition, the Company will be required to incur costs for environmental remediation and closure and postclosure under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.  Reserves for environmental contingencies have been established in accordance with Eastman's policies described in Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company's total reserve for environmental contingencies was $354 million and $368 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, this reserve included $10 million and $9 million, respectively, related to sites previously closed and impaired by Eastman and sites that have been divested by Eastman but for which the Company retains the environmental liability related to these sites.

Estimated future environmental expenditures for remediation costs ranged from the minimum or best estimate of $334 million to the maximum of $570 million and from the minimum or best estimate of $341 million to the maximum of $581 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  The maximum estimated future costs are considered to be reasonably possible and are inclusive of the amounts accrued at both June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.  Although the resolution of uncertainties related to these environmental matters may have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations in the period recognized, because of the availability of legal defenses, the Company's preliminary assessment of actions that may be required, and if applicable, the expected sharing of costs, management does not believe that the Company's liability for these environmental matters, individually or in the aggregate, will be material to the Company's consolidated financial position or cash flows.  

The best estimate accrued to date over the facilities' estimated useful lives for asset retirement obligation costs was $20 million and $27 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  

Reserves for environmental remediation that management believes to be probable and estimable are recorded as current and long-term liabilities in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. These reserves include liabilities expected to be paid out within 30 years. Changes in the reserves for environmental remediation liabilities during first six months2014 including net charges taken, which are included in cost of goods sold, and cash reductions are summarized below:

(Dollars in millions)	Environmental Remediation Liabilities
Balance at December 31, 2013	$	341
Net charges taken	4
Cash reductions	(11		)
Balance at June 30, 2014	$	334

Other Commitments

At June 30, 2014, the Company's obligations under notes and debentures and credit facilities totaled $4.8 billion to be paid over a period of approximately 30 years.  See Note 6, "Borrowings", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company had various purchase obligations at June 30, 2014 totaling $2.1 billionover a period of approximately 30 years for materials, supplies, and energy incident to the ordinary conduct of business.  The Company also had various lease commitments for property and equipment under cancelable, noncancelable, and month-to-month operating leases totaling approximately $261 million over a similar number of years.  Of the total lease commitments, approximately 60 percent relate to real property, including office space, storage facilities, and land; approximately 30 percent relate to railcars; and approximately 10 percent relate to machinery and equipment, including computer and communications equipment and production equipment.

46

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In addition, the Company had other liabilities at June 30, 2014, totaling $1.8 billion related primarily to pension, retiree medical, other postretirement obligations, and environmental reserves.

As of June 30, 2014, there have been no material changes to the Company's commitments at December 31, 2013. See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Off Balance Sheet and Other Financing Arrangements

If certain operating leases are terminated by the Company, it has guaranteed a portion of the residual value loss, if any, incurred by the lessors in disposing of the related assets.  For information on the Company's residual value guarantees, see Note 9, "Commitments", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Guarantees and claims also arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with joint venture partners, suppliers, customers, and other parties when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others, if specified triggering events occur.  Non-performance under a contract could trigger an obligation of the Company.  The Company's current other guarantees include guarantees relating primarily to intellectual property, environmental matters, and other indemnifications and have arisen through the normal course of business.  The ultimate effect on future financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists as to the final outcome of these claims, if they were to occur.  These other guarantees have terms between 1 and 15 years with maximum potential future payments of $22 million in the aggregate, with none of these guarantees being individually significant to the Company's operating results, financial position, or liquidity.  The Company's current expectation is that future payment or performance related to non-performance under other guarantees is considered remote.

Treasury Stock

In February 2011, the Company's Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company's outstanding common stock.  The Company completed the $300 million of repurchases in August 2013, acquiring a total of 6,141,999 shares.

In May 2013, the Company's Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company's outstanding common stock.  The Company completed the $300 million of repurchases in March 2014, acquiring a total of 3,840,949 shares.

In February 2014, the Company's Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to an additional $1 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock at such times, in such amounts, and on such terms, as determined to be in the best interests of the Company. As of June 30, 2014, a total of 2,314,133 shares have been repurchased under this authorization for a total amount of $200 million.

During first six months2014, the Company repurchased 4,326,556 shares of common stock for a cost of approximately $360 million.

Dividends

The Company declared cash dividends of $0.35 and $0.30 per share in second quarter2014 and 2013, respectively, and $0.70 and $0.60 per share in first six months2014 and 2013, respectively.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

For information regarding the impact of recently issued accounting standards, see Note 18 "Recently Issued Accounting Standards", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2014 OUTLOOK    

Eastman is focused on achieving consistent earnings growth through a market-driven approach that takes advantage of the Company's existing technology platforms, global marketing and manufacturing presence, leading positions in end markets, and vertically integrated manufacturing streams. This focus is supported by the Company's geographic and end-market diversity as it serves global markets, including emerging economies with above average growth rates, and offers both original equipment manufacturing and after-market products in a variety of end markets, such as transportation, building and construction, and consumables.

The Company expects its revenue growth will approximate global GDP growth for the second half of 2014.

The Company expects that market prices for commodity products and raw material and energy costs will continue to be volatile, and the Company will continue to use pricing and hedging strategies to mitigate this volatility.

For 2014, the Company also expects:

• operating results to benefit from capacity expansions and improved product mix;

• cash generated by operating activities of approximately $1.4 billion;

• capital spending to be approximately $575 million;

• to fund growth initiatives, dividend payments, and stock repurchases; and

• its full year tax rate on reported earnings before income tax to be approximately 28 percent, excluding non-core or non-recurring items.

Based on the foregoing expectations, and given the strength of the Company's differentiated portfolio of businesses, the Company expects full year 2014 earnings per diluted share to be between $6.70 and $7.00 per share. Non-core or non-recurring costs, charges, losses or gains are excluded from the earnings per share projection.

See "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" below.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are all statements, other than statements of historical fact, that may be made by us from time to time. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "may," "plans," "projects," "will," "would," and similar expressions or expressions of the negative of these terms. Forward-looking statements may relate to, among other things, such matters as planned and expected capacity increases and utilization; anticipated capital spending; expected depreciation and amortization; environmental matters; pending and future legal proceedings; exposure to, and effects of hedging of, raw material and energy costs, foreign currencies and interest rates; global and regional economic, political, and business conditions; competition; growth opportunities; supply and demand, volume, price, cost, margin and sales; earnings, cash flow, dividends and other expected financial results and conditions; expectations, strategies, and plans for individual assets and products, businesses, and segments as well as for the whole of Eastman; cash requirements and uses of available cash; financing plans and activities; pension expenses and funding; credit ratings; anticipated and other future restructuring, acquisition, divestiture, and consolidation activities; cost reduction and control efforts and targets; the timing and costs of, and benefits from, the integration of, and expected business and financial performance of, acquired businesses; strategic initiatives and development, production, commercialization and acceptance of new products, services and technologies and related costs; asset, business and product portfolio changes; and expected tax rates and net interest costs.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-looking statements are based upon certain underlying assumptions as of the date such statements were made. Such assumptions are based upon internal estimates and other analyses of current market conditions and trends, management expectations, plans, and strategies, economic conditions, and other factors. Forward-looking statements and the assumptions underlying them are necessarily subject to risks and uncertainties inherent in projecting future conditions and results. Actual results could differ materially from expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements if one or more of the underlying assumptions and expectations proves to be inaccurate or is unrealized. In addition to the factors described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, the following are the most significant known factors, risks, and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.

The Company cautions you not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Additional factors not presently known to the Company, or that the Company does not currently believe to be material, may also cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. Except as may be required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or alter these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Uncertain conditions in the global economy and the financial markets could negatively impact the Company.

Uncertain conditions in the global economy and global capital markets may adversely affect the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. The Company's business and operating results were affected by the impact of the most recent global recession, including the credit market crisis, declining consumer and business confidence, fluctuating commodity prices, volatile exchange rates, and other challenges that affected the global economy. If the global economy or financial markets again deteriorate or experience significant new disruptions, the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected; in addition the Company's ability to access the credit and capital markets under attractive rates and terms could be constrained, which may negatively impact the Company's liquidity or ability to pursue certain growth initiatives.

Volatility in costs for strategic raw material and energy commodities or disruption in the supply of these commodities could adversely affect our financial results.

The Company is reliant on certain strategic raw material and energy commodities for its operations and utilizes risk management tools, including hedging, as appropriate, to mitigate short-term market fluctuations in raw material and energy costs. These risk mitigation measures cannot eliminate all exposure to market fluctuations. In addition, natural disasters, plant interruptions, changes in laws or regulations, war or other outbreak of hostilities or terrorism, and breakdown or degradation of transportation infrastructure used for delivery of strategic raw material and energy commodities, could adversely impact both the cost and availability of these commodities.

The Company's business is subject to operating risks common to chemical manufacturing businesses, any of which could disrupt manufacturing operations or related infrastructure and adversely affect results of operations.

As a global specialty chemicals manufacturing company, our business is subject to operating risks common to chemical manufacturing, storage, handling, and transportation. Significant limitation on the Company's ability to manufacture products due to disruption of manufacturing operations or related infrastructure could have a material adverse effect on the Company's sales revenue, costs, results of operations, and financial condition. Disruptions could occur due to internal factors such as computer or equipment malfunction (accidental or intentional), operator error, or process failures; or external factors such as computer or equipment malfunction at third-party service providers, natural disasters, pandemic illness, changes in laws or regulations, war or other outbreak of hostilities or terrorism, cyber attacks, or breakdown or degradation of transportation infrastructure used for delivery of supplies to the Company or for delivery of products to customers. The Company has in the past experienced cyber attacks and breaches of its computer information systems, and although none of these has had a material adverse effect on the Company's operations, no assurances can be provided against the impact of any future disruptions due to these, or other, circumstances. Such disruptions could result in an unplanned event that could be significant in scale and could negatively impact operations, neighbors, and the environment, and could have a negative impact on the Company's results of operations.

49

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Loss or financial weakness of any of the Company's largest customers could adversely affect our financial results.

The Company has an extensive customer base; however, loss of, or material financial weakness of, certain of our largest customers could adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations until such business is replaced and no assurances can be made that the Company would be able to regain or replace any lost customers.

Growth initiatives may not achieve desired business or financial objectives and may require a significant use of resources in excess of those estimated or budgeted for such initiatives.

The Company continues to identify and pursue growth opportunities through both internal (or "organic") development and acquisitions and joint ventures to diversify and extend the portfolio of our businesses. These growth opportunities include development and commercialization or licensing of innovative new products and technologies and related employee leadership, expertise, and skill development and retention, expansion into new markets and geographic regions, and alliances, ventures, and acquisitions that complement and extend the Company's portfolio of businesses and capabilities. There can be no assurance that such innovation, development and commercialization or licensing efforts, investments, or acquisitions and alliances (including integration of acquired businesses) will result in financially successful commercialization of products, or acceptance by existing or new customers, or successful entry into new markets or otherwise achieve their underlying strategic business objectives or that they will be beneficial to the Company's results of operations. There also can be no assurance regarding the timing of completion of proposed acquisitions or licensing, expected benefits of proposed acquisitions or licensing, completion of integration plans, and synergies therefrom. There also can be no assurance that capital projects for growth efforts can be completed within the time or at the costs projected due, among other things, to demand for and availability of construction materials and labor and obtaining regulatory approvals and operating permits and reaching agreement on terms of key agreements and arrangements with potential suppliers and customers. Any such delays or cost overruns or the inability to obtain such approvals or to reach such agreements on acceptable terms could negatively affect the returns from any proposed or current investments and projects.

Significant acquisitions expose the Company to risks and uncertainties, the occurrence of any of which could materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.

While acquisitions are a part of the Company's growth strategy, acquisition of large companies subjects the Company to a number of risks and uncertainties, the occurrence of any of which could have a material adverse effect on Eastman. These include, but are not limited to the possibility that the financial performance of the acquired business may be significantly worse than expected; that significant additional indebtedness may constrain the Company's ability to access the credit and capital markets at attractive interest rates and favorable terms, which may negatively impact the Company's liquidity or ability to pursue certain growth initiatives; that the Company may not be able to achieve the cost, revenue, tax, or other "synergies" expected from any acquisition, or that there may be delays in achieving any such synergies; and that the Company may be required to expend significant additional resources in order to integrate any acquired business into Eastman or that the integration efforts will not achieve the expected benefits.

Legislative or regulatory actions could increase the Company's future compliance costs.

The Company and its facilities and businesses are subject to complex, health, safety and environmental laws and regulations, which require and will continue to require significant expenditures to remain in compliance with such laws and regulations. The Company's accruals for such costs and associated liabilities are subject to changes in estimates on which the accruals are based. For example, any amount accrued for environmental matters reflects the Company's assumptions about remediation requirements at the contaminated site, the nature of the remedy, the outcome of discussions with regulatory agencies and other potentially responsible parties at multi-party sites, and the number and financial viability of other potentially responsible parties. Changes in the estimates on which the accruals are based, unanticipated government enforcement action, or changes in health, safety, environmental, chemical control regulations, and testing requirements could result in higher costs. Specifically, pending and proposed U.S. Federal legislation and regulation increase the likelihood that the Company's manufacturing sites will in the future be impacted by regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and energy policy, which legislation and regulation, if enacted, may result in capital expenditures, increases in costs for raw materials and energy, limitations on raw material and energy source and supply choices, and other direct compliance costs.

50

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In addition to the foregoing most significant known risk factors to the Company, there may be other factors, not currently known to the Company, which could, in the future, materially adversely affect the Company, its business, financial condition, or results of operations. The foregoing discussion of the most significant risk factors to the Company does not necessarily present them in order of importance. This disclosure, including that under "Outlook" and other forward-looking statements and related disclosures made by the Company in this Annual Report and elsewhere from time to time, represents management's best judgment as of the date the information is given. The Company does not undertake responsibility for updating any of such information, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Investors are advised, however, to consult any further public Company disclosures (such as in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in Company press releases) on related subjects.

51

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the potential negative impact of adverse changes in prices or rates on a firm’s net income. Eastman Chemical Company ("Eastman" or the "Company") has exposure to various market risks from changes in the prices of various commodities, interest rates, and foreign currency exchange rates. In an effort to manage these risks, the Company enters into derivative contracts which are governed by policies, procedures, and internal processes set forth by its Board.

The Company determines its exposures to market risk by utilizing sensitivity analyses, which measure the potential losses in fair value resulting from one or more selected hypothetical changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or commodity prices. For more information regarding exposures, refer to Part II, Item 7A of the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

For purposes of calculating the market risks associated with the fair value of interest-rate-sensitive instruments, the Company uses a one hundred basis point shift in interest rates.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the market risk associated with the fair value of interest-rate-sensitive instruments, assuming a one hundred basis point change in interest rates was approximately $371 million and $274 million, respectively, on long-term borrowings with the increase primarily attributed to the second quarter 2014 issuance of new 4.65% bonds maturing 2044. In addition, the market risk associated with interest rate swaps hedging the interest rate risk on the 3.6% bonds maturing 2022 was $30 million at June 30, 2014. There were no interest rate swaps at December 31, 2013.

At June 30, 2014, the market risk associated with derivative contracts for feedstocks and natural gas, assuming an instantaneous parallel shift in the underlying commodity price of 10 percent, was $49 million with an additional $5 million exposure for each one percentage point move in closing price thereafter.  At December 31, 2013, the market risk associated with these derivative contracts, assuming an instantaneous parallel shift in the underlying commodity price of 10 percent, was $30 million, with less than an additional $3 million exposure for each one percentage point move in closing price thereafter. The increase in market risk in June 2014 compared to December 2013 was due to a significantly larger commodity derivative portfolio at June 30, 2013.

There was not a significant change in foreign currency exposure between June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2014, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed was accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

General

From time to time, Eastman Chemical Company ("Eastman" or the "Company") and its operations are parties to, or targets of, lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including product liability, personal injury, asbestos, patent and intellectual property, commercial, contract, environmental, antitrust, health and safety, and employment matters, which are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of business. While the Company is unable to predict the outcome of these matters, it does not believe, based upon currently available facts, that the ultimate resolution of any such pending matters (including those described below) will have a material adverse effect on its overall financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Solutia Legacy Torts Claims Litigation

Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Settlement Agreement effective February 28, 2008 between Solutia Inc. ("Solutia") and Monsanto Company ("Monsanto") in connection with Solutia's emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings (the "Monsanto Settlement Agreement"), Monsanto is responsible to defend and indemnify Solutia against any Legacy Tort Claims (as defined in the Monsanto Settlement Agreement) and Solutia agreed to retain responsibility for certain tort claims, if any, that may arise from Solutia's conduct after its spinoff from Pharmacia Corporation ("Pharmacia") (f/k/a Monsanto), which occurred on September 1, 1997. Solutia, which became a wholly owned subsidiary of Eastman on July 2, 2012 upon the Company's acquisition of Solutia, has been named as a defendant in several such proceedings, and has submitted the matters to Monsanto as Legacy Tort Claims. To the extent these matters are not within the meaning of Legacy Tort Claims, Solutia could potentially be liable thereunder. In connection with the completion of its acquisition of Solutia, Eastman guaranteed the obligations of Solutia and Eastman was added as an indemnified party under the Monsanto Settlement Agreement.

Environmental Enforcement Action

On January 30, 2014, the Company received a Notice of Enforcement ("NOE") from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality ("TCEQ") alleging the Company and Flint Hills Resources, Inc. ("FHR") are jointly and severally liable for violating certain state air quality regulations and certain provisions in TCEQ-issued air quality-related permits. FHR owns assets at the Company's Longview, Texas, site that are operated by the Company. The Company intends to vigorously defend against these allegations and believes that the ultimate resolution of this proceeding will not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. This disclosure is made pursuant to SEC Regulations, which require disclosure of administrative proceedings commenced under environmental laws that involve governmental authorities as parties and potential monetary sanctions of at least $100,000.
