Financial Information about Product Segments
Information as to sales, earnings before interest income, interest expense, provision for income taxes, minority share owners' interests in earnings of subsidiaries, and extraordinary charges ("EBIT"), and total assets by product segment is included in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Narrative Description of Business
The Company has two product segments: (1) Glass Containers and (2) Plastics Packaging. Below is a description of these segments and information to the extent material to understanding the Company's business taken as a whole.
Products and Services, Customers, Markets and Competitive Conditions, and Methods of Distribution
GLASS CONTAINERS PRODUCT SEGMENT
The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass containers throughout the world. Approximately one of every two glass containers made worldwide is made by the Company, its affiliates or its licensees. Worldwide glass container sales represented 69%, 66%, and 67%, of the Company's consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company manufactured approximately 39% of all glass containers sold by domestic producers in the U.S., making the Company the leading manufacturer of glass containers in the U.S. The Company is the leading glass container manufacturer in 17 of the 19
1
countries where it competes in the glass container segment of the rigid packaging market and the sole manufacturer of glass containers in eight of these countries.
Products and Services
In the U.S., the Company produces glass containers for malt beverages including beer and ready to drink low alcohol refreshers, food, tea, juice, liquor, wine and pharmaceuticals. The Company also produces glass containers for soft drinks, principally outside the U.S. The Company manufactures these products in a wide range of sizes, shapes and colors. As a leader in glass container innovation, the Company is active in new product development.
Customers
In most of the countries where the Company competes, it has the leading position in the glass container segment of the rigid packaging market (based on units sold). The largest customers include many of the leading manufacturers and marketers of glass packaged products in the world. In the U.S., the majority of customers for glass containers are brewers, food producers, distillers and wine vintners. Outside of the U.S., glass container customers also include soft drink bottlers. The largest U.S. glass container customers include (in alphabetical order) Anheuser-Busch, Campbell, Coors, Gerber and H.J. Heinz. The largest international glass container customers include Diageo, Foster's, Heineken, Labatt, Lion Nathan, Molson, and SABMiller. The Company is the sole glass container supplier to many of these "blue chip" customers.
The Company sells most of its glass container products directly to customers under annual or multi-year supply agreements. The Company also sells some of its products through distributors. Glass containers are typically scheduled for production in response to customers' orders for their quarterly requirements.
Markets and Competitive Conditions
The principal markets for glass container products made by the Company are in North America, South America, Europe and the Asia Pacific region. The Company believes it is the low-cost producer in the glass container segment of the North American rigid packaging market, as well as the low-cost producer in most of the international glass container segments in which it competes. Much of this cost advantage is due to proprietary equipment and process technology used by the Company. The Company's machine development activities and systematic upgrading of production equipment in the 1980's and 1990's have given it low-cost leadership in the glass container segment in many of the countries in which it competes, a key strength to competing successfully in the rigid packaging market.
The Company has the leading share of the glass container segment of the U.S. rigid packaging market based on units sold by domestic producers in the U.S., with its sales representing approximately 40% of that segment for the year ended December 31, 2002. The principal glass container competitors in the U.S. are Saint-Gobain Containers, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain, and Anchor Glass Container Corporation.
In supplying glass containers outside of the U.S., the Company competes directly with Compagnie de Saint-Gobain in Italy and Brazil, Rexam plc and Ardagh plc in the U.K., Vetropak in the Czech Republic and Amcor Limited in Australia. In other locations in Europe, the Company competes indirectly with a variety of glass container firms including Compagnie de Saint-Gobain, BSN Glasspack, Vetropak and Rexam plc. Except as mentioned above, the Company does not compete with any large, multi-national glass container manufacturers in Mexico, South America or the Asia Pacific region.
In addition to competing with other large, well-established manufacturers in the glass container segment, the Company competes with manufacturers of other forms of rigid packaging, principally
2
aluminum cans and plastic containers, on the basis of quality, price and service. The principal competitors producing metal containers are Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc., Rexam plc, Ball Corporation and Silgan Holdings Inc. The principal competitors producing plastic containers are Amcor, Consolidated Container Holdings, LLC, Graham Packaging Company, Plastipak Packaging, Inc. and Silgan Holdings Inc. The Company also competes with manufacturers of non-rigid packaging alternatives, including flexible pouches and aseptic cartons, in serving the packaging needs of juice customers.
The Company's unit shipments of glass containers in countries outside of the U.S. have grown substantially from levels of the early 1990's. The Company has added to its international operations by acquiring glass container companies, many of which have leading positions in growing or established markets, increasing capacity at select foreign affiliates, and maintaining the global network of glass container companies that license its technology. In many developing countries, the Company's international glass operations have benefited in the last ten years from increased consumer spending power, a trend toward the privatization of industry, a favorable climate for foreign investment, lowering of trade barriers and global expansion programs by multi-national consumer companies. Due to the weighting of labor as a production cost, glass containers have a significant cost advantage over plastic and metal containers in developing countries where labor wage rates are relatively low.
The Company's majority ownership positions in international glass affiliates are summarized below:

North America. In addition to the glass container operations in the U.S., the Company's affiliate in Canada is the sole manufacturer of glass containers in that country.
South America. The Company's affiliates in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru are the sole manufacturers of glass containers in those countries. In both Brazil and Venezuela, the Company is the leading manufacturer of glass containers. In South America, there is a large infrastructure for returnable/refillable glass containers. However, with improving economic conditions in South America after the recessions of the late 1990's, unit sales of non-returnable glass containers have grown in Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil.
3
Europe. The Company's European glass container business has operations in eight countries and is one of the largest in Europe. In Italy, the Company's wholly-owned affiliate, AVIR, is the leading manufacturer of glass containers and operates 13 glass container plants. AVIR accounted for approximately 50% of our total European glass container sales in 2002. United Glass, the Company's affiliate in the U.K., is a leading manufacturer of glass containers for the U.K. spirits business. In Poland, the Company is the leading glass container manufacturer and currently operates two plants. The Company's affiliate in the Czech Republic, Avirunion, is the leading glass container manufacturer in that country and also ships a portion of its beer bottle production to Germany. In Hungary, the Company is the sole glass container manufacturer and serves the Hungarian food industry. In Finland and the Baltic country of Estonia, the Company is the only manufacturer of glass containers. The Company coordinates production activities between Finland and Estonia in order to efficiently serve the Finnish, Baltic and Russian markets. In recent years, Western European brewers have been establishing beer production facilities in Central Europe and the Russian Republic. Because these new beer plants use high-speed filling lines, they require high quality glass containers in order to operate properly. The Company believes it is well positioned to meet this growing demand. In Spain, the Company serves the market for wine bottles in the Barcelona and southern France area.
Asia Pacific. The Company has glass operations in four countries in the Asia Pacific region: Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia and China. The Asia Pacific affiliates are the leading manufacturers of glass containers in most of the countries in which they compete. In Australia, the Company operates five glass container plants, including a plant focused on serving the needs of the rapidly growing Australian wine industry. In New Zealand, the Company is the sole glass container manufacturer. In Indonesia, the Company's affiliate supplies the Indonesian market and exports glass containers for food and pharmaceutical products to Australian customers. In China, the glass container segments of the packaging market are regional and highly fragmented with a number of local competitors. The Company has three modern glass container plants in China manufacturing high-quality beer bottles to serve Foster's as well as Anheuser-Busch, which is now producing Budweiser® in and for the Chinese market.
The Company continues to focus on serving the needs of leading multi-national consumer companies as they pursue international growth opportunities. The Company believes that it is often the glass container partner of choice for such multi-national consumer companies due to its leadership in glass technology and its status as a low-cost producer in most of the markets it serves.
Manufacturing
The Company believes it is the low-cost producer in the glass container segment of the North American rigid packaging market, as well as the low-cost producer in most of the international glass segments in which it competes. Much of this cost advantage is due to the Company's proprietary equipment and process technology. The Company believes its glass forming machines, developed and refined by its engineering group, are significantly more efficient and productive than those used by competitors. The Company's machine development activities and systematic upgrading of production equipment in the 1980's and 1990's have given it low-cost leadership in the glass container segment in most of the countries in which it competes, a key strength to competing successfully in the rigid packaging market.
Over the last ten years, the Company has more than doubled its overall glass container labor and machine productivity in the U.S., as measured by output produced per man-hour. By applying it's technology and worldwide "best practices" during this period, the Company decreased the number of production employees required per glass-forming machine line in the U.S. by over 35%, and increased the daily output of glass-forming machines by approximately 40%.

Methods of Distribution
Due to the significance of transportation costs and the importance of timely delivery, glass container manufacturing facilities are generally located close to customers. In the U.S., most of the Company's glass container products are shipped by common carrier to customers within a 250-mile radius of a given production site. In addition, the Company's glass container operations outside the U.S. export some products to customers beyond their national boundaries, which may include transportation by rail and ocean delivery in combination with common carriers. The Company also operates several machine and mold shops that manufacture high-productivity glass-forming machines, molds and related equipment.
Suppliers and Raw Materials
The primary raw materials used in the Company's glass container operations are sand, soda ash and limestone. Each of these materials, as well as the other raw materials used to manufacture glass containers, have historically been available in adequate supply from multiple sources. For certain raw materials, however, there may be temporary shortages due to weather or other factors, including disruptions in supply caused by raw material transportation or production delays.
Glass Recycling
The Company is an important contributor to the recycling effort in the U.S. and continues to melt substantial recycled glass tonnage in its glass furnaces. If sufficient high-quality recycled glass were available on a consistent basis, the Company has the technology to operate using 100% recycled glass. Using recycled glass in the manufacturing process reduces energy costs and prolongs the operating life of the glass melting furnaces.
PLASTICS PACKAGING PRODUCT SEGMENT
The Company is a leading manufacturer in North America of plastic containers, plastic closures and plastic prescription containers. The Company also has plastics packaging operations in South America, Europe, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand. Plastics packaging sales represented 31%, 34% and 32% of the Company's consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Manufacturing and Products
The plastics packaging business utilizes two basic manufacturing processes:
Blow-Molded Plastics Packaging
Blow-molding is a plastics manufacturing process where pre-heated plastic is captured inside a hollow mold and using pressurized air is blown, much like a balloon, into a container. After being cooled, the mold is opened and the plastic product is removed.
In blow-molded plastics packaging, the Company is a leading U.S. manufacturer of high density polyethylene (HDPE) containers. The Company manufactures these containers for products for the food and beverage, household, personal care, health care and chemical and automotive fluid end-use categories.
The Company is also a leading worldwide manufacturer of PET blow-molded containers. Many of these PET containers are manufactured using multiple layers of plastic, with each layer having a different function. Some of these plastic layers have "barrier" properties, effectively blocking the escape of carbon dioxide out of, and the permeation of oxygen into, the packaged product thereby maintaining product quality and extending shelf life. Examples of products packaged in multi-layer PET containers
5
include Heinz ketchup and Pepsi's Dole® and Season's Best® brands. Major brewers, such as Anheuser-Busch, Coors and Miller Brewing, are now marketing beer packaged in the Company's multi-layer PET beer bottles at selected venues and locations.
Injection-Molded Plastics Packaging
Injection molding is a plastics manufacturing process where plastic resin in the form of pellets or powder is melted and then injected or otherwise forced under pressure into a mold. The mold is then cooled and the product is removed from the mold.
The Company develops and produces injection-molded plastic closures and closure systems, which typically incorporate functional features such as tamper evidence and child resistance or dispensing. Other products include trigger sprayers for household cleaning products, finger and lotion pumps for fragrances and cosmetics, as well as injection-molded containers for deodorant and toothpaste.
The prescription product unit manufactures injection-molded plastic prescription containers. These products are sold primarily to drug wholesalers, major drug chains and mail order pharmacies. Containers for prescriptions include ovals, vials, ointment jars, dropper bottles and automation friendly prescription containers.
Customers
The Company's largest customers (in alphabetical order) for plastic containers and closures include Bristol-Myers Squibb, H.J. Heinz, Johnson & Johnson, PepsiCo (Dole®, Gatorade®, Tropicana®), Procter & Gamble and Unilever. The largest customers for prescription containers include AmeriSourceBergen, Cardinal Health, Eckerd Drug, McKesson, Walgreen, Rite-Aid and Merck-Medco.
The Company sells most plastic containers, plastic closures and plastic prescription containers directly to customers under annual or multi-year supply agreements. These supply agreements typically allow a pass-through of resin price increases and decreases, except for the prescription business. The Company also sells some of its products through distributors.
Markets and Competitive Conditions
Major markets for plastics packaging include the food and beverage, household products, personal care products, health care products and chemical and automotive fluid industries.
The plastics segment of the rigid packaging market is competitive and fragmented due to generally available technology, low costs of entry and customer emphasis on low package cost. A large number of competitors exist on both a national and regional basis. The Company competes with other manufacturers in the plastic containers segment on the basis of quality, price, service and product design. The principal competitors producing plastic containers are Amcor, Consolidated Container Holdings, LLC, Graham Packaging Company, Plastipak Packaging, Inc. and Silgan Holdings Inc. The Company emphasizes total package supply(i.e., bottle and closure system), diversified market positions, proprietary technology and products, new package development and packaging innovation. The plastic closures segment is divided into various categories in which several suppliers compete for business on the basis of quality, price, service and product design.
The Company's approach has been to identify and serve areas of the plastics packaging segment where customers seek distinctive and functional packaging to differentiate their products among an array of choices offered to consumers. The Company believes it is a leader in technology and development of custom products and has a leading market position in the U.S. for such products. The Company believes its plastic containers and plastic closures businesses have a competitive advantage as a result of one of the shortest new product development cycles in the industry, enabling it to respond quickly to customer needs in the rapidly changing custom plastic containers and closures segments. The
6
Company's product innovations in plastics packaging include in-mold labeling for custom-molded bottles and multi-layer bottles containing post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic.
Manufacturing
The exact type of blow-molding manufacturing process the Company uses is dependent on the plastic product type and package requirements. These blow-molding processes include: various types of extrusion blow-molding for medium- and large-sized HDPE, low density polyethelene (LDPE), polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) containers; stretch blow-molding for medium-sized PET containers; injection blow-molding for small health care and personal care containers in various materials; two-stage PET blow-molding for high volume, high performance mono-layer, multi-layer and heat-set PET containers; and proprietary blow-molding for drain-back systems and other specialized applications.
Injection-molding is used in the manufacture of plastic closures, trigger sprayers, deodorant canisters, ink cartridges and vials. Compression-molding, an alternative to injection-molding, is used for high volume carbonated soft drink and other beverage closures that require tamper evidence.
Methods of Distribution
In the U.S., most of the Company's plastic containers, plastic closures and plastic prescription containers are shipped by common carrier. In addition, the Company's plastics packaging operations outside the U.S. export some products to customers beyond their national boundaries, which may include transportation by rail and ocean delivery in combination with common carriers.
Suppliers and Raw Materials
The Company manufactures containers and closures using HDPE, LDPE, polypropylene, PVC, PET and various other plastic resins. The Company also purchases large quantities of master batch colorants, corrugated materials and labels. In general, these raw materials are available in adequate supply from multiple sources. However, for certain raw materials, there may be temporary shortages due to market conditions and other factors.
Worldwide suppliers of plastic resins used in the production of plastics packaging include Voridian (formerly Eastman Chemical), Dow Chemical, ExxonMobil, Basell, Chevron Phillips and BP Solvay. Historically, prices for plastic resins have been subject to dramatic fluctuations. However, resin cost pass-through provisions are typical in the Company's supply contracts with its plastics packaging customers.
With the exception of PolyOne, Ampacet and Clariant, each of which does business worldwide, most suppliers of batch colorants are regional in scope. Historically, prices for these raw materials have been subject to dramatic fluctuations. However, cost recovery for batch colorants is included in resin pass-through provisions which are typical of the Company's supply contracts with its plastics packaging customers.
Worldwide suppliers of corrugated materials include International Paper, Georgia-Pacific, Weyerhauser, Temple-Inland, and Smurfit-Stone Container. Historically, prices for corrugated materials have not been subject to dramatic fluctuations, except for temporary spikes or troughs from time to time.
With the exception of Fuji Seal (Japan) and its subsidiary, American Fuji Seal, most suppliers of plastic labels are regional in scope. Historically, prices for these raw materials have not been subject to dramatic fluctuations.
7
Recycling
Recycling content legislation, which has been enacted in several states, requires that a certain specified minimum percentage of recycled plastic be included in certain new plastic containers. The Company has met such legislated standards in part due to its material and multi-layer process technology. The Company's plastic containers are made with PCR plastic constituting somewhere between 25% and 100% of the material used to produce the container. In addition, its plastics plants also recycle virtually all of the internal scrap generated in the production process.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Technical Assistance License Agreements
The Company licenses its proprietary glass container technology to 25 companies in 24 countries. In plastics packaging, the Company has technical assistance agreements with 24 companies in 15 countries. These agreements cover areas ranging from manufacturing and engineering assistance, to support in functions such as marketing, sales and administration. The worldwide licensee network provides a stream of revenue to support the Company's development activities and gives it the opportunity to participate in the rigid packaging market in countries where it does not already have a direct presence. In addition, the Company's technical agreements enable it to apply "best practices" developed by its worldwide licensee network. In the years 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company earned $24.2 million, $24.6 million and $25.3 million, respectively, in royalties and net technical assistance revenue.
Research and Development
Research and development constitutes an important part of the Company's activities. Research and development expenditures were $41.1 million, $41.2 million, and $46.7 million for 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. In addition, engineering expenditures were $38.9 million, $31.4 million, and $31.3 million for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The Company's research, development and engineering activities include new products, manufacturing process control, automatic inspection and further automation.
Environmental and Other Governmental Regulation
The Company's worldwide operations, in common with those of the industry generally, are subject to extensive laws, ordinances, regulations and other legal requirements relating to environmental protection, including legal requirements governing investigation and clean-up of contaminated properties as well as water discharges, air emissions, waste management and workplace health and safety. Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment for environmental control activities were not material during 2002.
In August 1998, the Company received a Notice of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency regarding alleged opacity violations at its Oakland, California glass container plant from the period of 1994 through 1997. Certain furnaces at the plant are equipped with monitors that continuously monitor opacity. During this period, these furnaces had occasional upset and breakdown conditions that caused opacity excursions that were reported to the State of California as required. In each instance an opacity violation notice was given by the State of California and in each case the matter was settled. This action by the U.S. EPA involves the same incidents that were resolved with the State of California. The Company has reached a settlement in principle with the U.S. EPA under which it will pay certain monetary penalties, without requiring any additional permits or abatement equipment.
In September 2001, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality issued a Notice of Violation to the Company's plant located in Toano, Virginia, alleging violations of certain regulations in
8
connection with certain changes that were made to the furnaces during repairs. The Company has reached a settlement with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality under which it will voluntarily install abatement equipment, agreed to certain production capacity limitations that are not expected to materially impact operations, and paid certain monetary penalties.
The monetary penalties for the Oakland matter and the Toano matter are not expected to exceed $425,000 in the aggregate.
A number of governmental authorities, both in the U.S. and abroad, have enacted, or are considering, legal requirements that would mandate certain rates of recycling, the use of recycled materials and/or limitations on certain kinds of packaging materials such as plastics. The Company believes that governmental authorities in both the U.S. and abroad will continue to enact and develop such legal requirements.
In the U.S., sales of non-refillable glass beverage bottles and other convenience packages are affected by mandatory deposit laws and other types of restrictive legislation. As of January 1, 2003, there were nine states with mandatory deposit laws in effect. A number of states and local governments have enacted or are considering legislation to promote curbside recycling and recycled content legislation as alternatives to mandatory deposit laws. Although such legislation is not uniformly developed, the Company believes that states and local governments will continue to enact and develop curbside recycling and recycling content legislation.
Plastic containers have also been the subject of legislation in various states, which requires that a certain specified minimum percentage of recycled plastic be included in new plastic products. The Company utilizes recycled plastic resin in its manufacturing processes.
Although the Company is unable to predict what environmental legal requirements may be adopted in the future, it has not made, and does not anticipate making, material expenditures with respect to environmental protection. However, the compliance costs associated with environmental legal requirements may result in future additional costs to operations.
Intellectual Property Rights
The Company has a large number of patents which relate to a wide variety of products and processes, has a substantial number of patent applications pending, and is licensed under several patents of others. While in the aggregate the Company's patents are of material importance to its businesses, the Company does not consider that any patent or group of patents relating to a particular product or process is of material importance when judged from the standpoint of any segment or its businesses as a whole.
The Company has a number of intellectual property rights, comprised of both patented and proprietary technology, that make the Company's glass forming machines more efficient and productive than those used by our competitors. In addition, the efficiency of the Company's glass forming machines is enhanced by the Company's overall approach to cost efficient manufacturing technology, which extends from batch house to warehouse. This technology is proprietary to the Company through a combination of issued patents, pending applications, copyrights, trade secret and proprietary know-how.
Upstream of the glass forming machine, there is technology to deliver molten glass to the forming machine at high rates of flow and fully conditioned to be homogeneous in consistency, viscosity and temperature for efficient forming into glass containers. The Company has proprietary know-how in (a) the batch house, where raw materials are stored, measured and mixed, (b) the furnace control system and furnace combustion, and (c) the forehearth and feeding system to deliver such homogeneous glass to the forming machines.
9
In the Company's glass container manufacturing processes, computer control and electro-mechanical mechanisms are commonly used for feeding molten glass to the forming machines. Various patents held by the Company describe electro-mechanical mechanisms and related technology used for feeding molten glass to the forming machines. Others represent electro-mechanical mechanisms and related technology used by the Company for shearing glass gobs for delivery to the forming machines. Additional U.S. patents and various pending applications represent technology used by the Company for measuring and precisely delivering glass gobs to the forming machines.
Downstream of the glass forming machines there is patented and unpatented technology for ware handling, annealing, coating and inspection, which further enhance the overall efficiency of the manufacturing process.
While the above patents and intellectual property rights are representative of the technology used in the Company's glass manufacturing operations, there are numerous other pending patent applications, trade secrets and other proprietary know-how and technology, as supplemented by administrative and operational best practices, which contribute to the Company's competitive advantage. As noted above, however, the Company does not consider that any patent or group of patents relating to a particular product or process is of material importance when judged from the standpoint of any segment or its businesses as a whole.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Comparison of 2002 with 2001
For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company recorded earnings before extraordinary items and cumulative effect of accounting change of $318.2 million compared to earnings before extraordinary items of $360.7 million for 2001. The net loss for 2002 of $151.4 million reflected $9.6 million of extraordinary charges from the early extinguishment of debt and $460.0 million from the cumulative effect of the change in accounting for goodwill. Net earnings of $356.6 million for 2001 reflected $4.1 million from an extraordinary charge from the early extinguishment of debt. Excluding the effects of the 2002 extraordinary items and cumulative effect of accounting change, the Company's 2002 net earnings of $318.2 million increased $26.9 million, or 9.2% from 2001 earnings, excluding extraordinary and unusual items and goodwill amortization (as discussed in the table below), of $291.3 million.
The following tables lists unusual items (in millions of dollars) recorded in 2001 and goodwill amortization for 2001, and their related effects on both EBIT and earnings before extraordinary items. EBIT is defined as earnings before interest income, interest expense, provision for income taxes, minority share owners' interest in earnings of subsidiaries, extraordinary charges and cumulative effect of accounting change.

Before unusual items and goodwill amortization | $ | 856.6 | $ | 291.3 | ||||
Consolidated EBIT for 2002 was $889.2 million, an increase of $32.6 million, or 3.8%, compared to 2001 EBIT, excluding unusual items and goodwill amortization, of $856.6 million. The increase was principally due to higher EBIT for the Glass Containers segment, partially offset by lower EBIT for the Plastics Packaging segment and lower EBIT from eliminations and other retained items, as further discussed below. Interest expense, net of interest income and the 2001 unusual expense of $4.0 million, decreased $5.5 million from 2001. The effects of lower short-term variable interest rates were partially offset by the first quarter 2002 issuance of $1.0 billion principal amount of 87/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2009 and the fourth quarter 2002 issuance of 83/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2012 totaling $625 million. Proceeds from the Senior Secured Notes were used to repay lower cost, variable rate debt borrowed under the Secured Credit Agreement. The Company's effective tax rate for 2002 was 30.1%.
18
This compares with a rate of 30.3% for 2001, adjusted to exclude the effects of unusual items and goodwill amortization.
Capsule segment results (in millions of dollars) for 2002 and 2001 were as follows (a) (certain amounts from the prior year have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation):

- (b)
- EBIT for 2001 included: (1) a gain of $457.3 million related to the sale of the Company's Harbor Capital Advisors business; (2) a $10.3 million gain from the sale of a minerals business in Australia; (3) a $2.8 million gain from the sale of the Company's label business; (4) charges of $82.1 million related to restructuring and impairment charges at certain of the Company's international glass operations, principally Venezuela and Puerto Rico, as well as certain other domestic and international operations; (5) a charge of $31.0 million related to the loss on the sale of the Company's facilities in India; (6) charges of $30.9 million related to special employee benefit programs; (7) a charge of $8.5 million for certain contingencies; and (8) a charge of $7.9 million related to restructuring manufacturing capacity in the medical devices business.
Such charges (gains) are included as follows in consolidated EBIT for 2001 (in millions of dollars):
Glass Containers | $ | 92.6 | |||
Plastics Packaging | 37.7 | ||||
Other | (2.8 | ) | |||
Total Product Segments | 127.5 | ||||
Eliminations and other retained items | (437.5 | ) | |||
Consolidated Totals | $ | (310.0 | ) | ||
- (c)
- In accordance with FAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer amortized beginning in 2002. In order to facilitate comparisons, goodwill amortization for 2001 has been reclassified out of the Glass Containers and Plastics Packaging segments and reported separately.
Consolidated net sales for 2002 increased $237.9 million, or 4.4%, over the prior year. Net sales of the Glass Containers segment increased $302.9 million, or 8.5%, over 2001. In North America, the additional sales from the October 2001 acquisition of the Canadian glass container operations and
19
increased shipments of containers for liquor and wine were partially offset by decreased shipments of containers for food, teas and juices. The combined U.S. dollar sales of the segment's other foreign affiliates increased 2.6% over the prior year. Increased shipments throughout most of the Asia Pacific region and portions of Europe were partially offset by the absence of the glass container operations in India (sold in 2001) and the effects of political and economic uncertainty in Venezuela. A national strike in Venezuela that began in early December 2002 caused energy supply curtailments that forced the Company to idle its two plants in the country, adversely affecting net sales by approximately $20 million. The effects of changing foreign currency exchange rates increased U.S. dollar sales of the segment's foreign affiliates in Europe and the Asia Pacific region by approximately $90 million and decreased U.S. dollar sales of the segment's foreign affiliates in South America by approximately $60 million. Net sales of the Plastics Packaging segment decreased $60.5 million, or 3.3%, from 2001. Increased shipments of plastic containers for food, bottled water, juice and health care and closures for food, juice and other beverages were more than offset by lower unit pricing in some product lines, the absence of sales from several small businesses divested during 2002 and the effects of lower resin costs on pass-through arrangements with customers. The effects of lower resin cost pass-throughs decreased sales approximately $14 million compared to 2001.
Segment EBIT for 2002, excluding the effects of the 2001 unusual items, increased $52.7 million, or 5.8%, to $967.2 million from the 2001 adjusted EBIT of $914.5 million, adjusted to exclude goodwill amortization. Consolidated operating expenses, excluding unusual items of $30.9 million for 2001, (consisting of selling and administrative, engineering, and research and development expenses) as a percentage of net sales were 7.1% in 2002 compared to 7.1% in 2001. EBIT of the Glass Containers segment increased $81.9 million to $709.0 million, compared to adjusted EBIT of $627.1 million in 2001. The combined U.S. dollar EBIT of the segment's foreign affiliates increased 7.7% over prior year. Increased shipments throughout most of the Asia Pacific region and portions of Europe and moderately improved pricing in Europe were partially offset by lower shipments in Brazil and Colombia, the national strike in Venezuela as discussed above and unfavorable currency translation rates throughout most of South America. In North America, Glass Container EBIT increased 9.7% over 2001 principally as a result of the Canadian glass container operations acquired early in the fourth quarter of 2001, moderately improved pricing and product mix, increased shipments of containers for liquor and wine and the recognition of the remaining deferred income associated with the early termination of an energy supply agreement, partially offset by the conversion of certain food and beverage containers to plastic packaging. EBIT of the Plastics Packaging segment decreased $29.0 million, or 10.1%, to $258.2 million compared to adjusted EBIT of $287.2 million in 2001. Increased shipments of plastic containers for food, bottled water, juice and health care and closures for food, juice and other beverages as well as improved manufacturing performance were more than offset by lower unit pricing in some product lines, a $4.1 million unfavorable accounting adjustment at one of the segment's foreign affiliates largely due to the write down of inventories to net realizable value, and discontinued production for a major customer in the advanced technology systems business as the customer moves production from the U.S. to the Far East. The Company is commissioning a new factory in the Far East to continue to supply this customer and expects this new factory to be fully operational early in 2003. The Plastics Packaging segment operates in a number of highly competitive markets and has incurred significant pricing pressure during 2002 in some product lines which the Company expects to partially offset by increased unit volume, improved productivity and reduced costs.
EBIT from eliminations and other retained items, excluding the 2001 unusual items, decreased $20.1 million from 2001 reflecting lower net financial services income due to the sale of the Company's Harbor Capital Advisors business in the second quarter of 2001 as well as higher information systems spending during the year.
The 2001 results included a net pretax gain of $310.0 million ($170.5 million after tax and minority share owners' interest) for the following: (1) a gain of $457.3 million ($284.4 million after tax) related
20
to the sale of the Harbor Capital Advisors business; (2) gains totaling $13.1 million ($12.0 million after tax) related to the sale of the label business and the sale of a minerals business in Australia; (3) charges of $82.1 million ($65.3 million after tax and minority share owners' interests) related to restructuring and impairment charges at certain of the Company's international glass operations, principally Venezuela and Puerto Rico, as well as certain other domestic and international operations; (4) a charge of $31.0 million (pretax and after tax) related to the loss on the sale of the Company's facilities in India; (5) charges of $30.9 million ($19.4 million after tax) related to special employee benefit programs; (6) a charge of $8.5 million ($5.3 million after tax) for certain contingencies; and (7) a charge of $7.9 million ($4.9 million after tax) related to restructuring manufacturing capacity in the medical devices business.
Comparison of 2001 with 2000
For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company recorded earnings of $360.7 million before an extraordinary item, compared to a net earnings of $72.3 million for 2000. Net earnings of $356.6 million for 2001 reflect $4.1 million of an extraordinary charge from the early extinguishment of debt. Excluding the effects of unusual items for both 2001 and 2000 discussed below, the Company's 2001 earnings of $199.0 million before extraordinary items decreased $35.0 million, or 15.0%, from 2000 earnings of $234.0 million.
The 2001 results included the unusual items discussed above. The 2000 results included pretax charges totaling $248.3 million ($171.0 million after tax and minority share owners' interests) for the following: (1) $122.4 million ($77.3 million after tax and minority share owners' interests) related to the consolidation of manufacturing capacity; (2) a net charge of $52.4 million ($32.6 million after tax) related to early retirement incentives and special termination benefits for 350 United States salaried employees; (3) $40.0 million (pretax and after tax) related to the impairment of property, plant and equipment at the Company's facilities in India; and (4) $33.5 million ($21.1 million after tax and minority share owners' interests) related principally to the write-off of software and related development costs.
Consolidated EBIT, excluding unusual items, for 2001 was $764.3 million, a decrease of $96.6 million, or 11.2%, compared to 2000 EBIT, excluding unusual items, of $860.9 million. The decrease was attributable to lower EBIT for both the Glass Containers segment and the Plastics Packaging segment. Results of both segments are discussed further below. Interest expense, net of interest income and unusual items, decreased $51.1 million from 2000 due principally to lower interest rates and decreased levels of debt. Exclusive of the adjustment for net income tax liabilities in Italy and other unusual items previously discussed, the Company's effective tax rate for 2001 was 38.1%. This compares with a rate of 36.9% for 2000, excluding the adjustment for net income tax liabilities in Italy and other unusual items. The increase in the 2001 rate compared to 2000 was primarily the result of decreased international and domestic tax benefits and credits.

- (b)
- EBIT for 2001 included the unusual items as discussed in note (c) to the table of capsule segment results for 2002 and 2001.
- (c)
- EBIT for 2000 included charges totaling $248.3 million for the following: (1) $122.4 million related to the consolidation of manufacturing capacity; (2) a net charge of $52.4 million related to early retirement incentives and special termination benefits for 350 United States salaried employees; (3) $40.0 million related to the impairment of property, plant and equipment at the Company's facilities in India; and (4) $33.5 million related principally to the write-off of software and related development costs. These items were recorded in the third quarter of 2000. These items decreased segment EBIT as follows: Glass Containers—$186.0 million; Plastics Packaging—$11.2 million; Eliminations and other retained items—$51.1 million.
Consolidated net sales for 2001 decreased $149.6 million, or 2.7%, from the prior year. Net sales of the Glass Containers segment decreased $124.4 million from 2000. In North America, the additional sales from the October 2001 acquisition of the Canadian operations were more than offset by decreased shipments of containers for beer producers and conversions of certain juice and iced tea from glass to plastic containers. The combined U.S. dollar sales of the segment's foreign affiliates decreased from the prior year. Increased shipments from the Company's operations throughout most of Europe and South America were more than offset by the effects of a strong U.S. dollar and lower shipments from the Company's operations in the United Kingdom and most of the Asia Pacific region. The effect of changing foreign currency exchange rates reduced U.S. dollar sales of the segment's foreign affiliates by approximately $140 million. Net sales of the Plastics Packaging segment increased $29.9 million, or 1.7%, over 2000, reflecting increased shipments of plastic containers and closures for food and health care, including prescription products, and the effects of higher resin costs on pass-through arrangements with customers, partially offset by lower shipments of plastic containers for juice and other beverages and the effect of changing foreign currency exchange rates, principally in Australia. The effects of higher resin costs increased sales by approximately $32 million compared to 2000.
Segment EBIT for 2001, excluding the 2001 and 2000 unusual items, decreased $15.3 million to $822.2 million, or 15.2% of net sales, from 2000 segment EBIT of $837.5 million, or 15.1% of net sales. Consolidated operating expenses, before 2001 unusual items of $30.9 million, as a percentage of net sales were 7.1% in 2001 compared to 6.5% in 2000. The increase in operating expenses was attributed
22
to lower pension income and higher costs of certain employee benefit programs. EBIT of the Glass Containers segment decreased $4.7 million, or 0.8%, to $582.5 million, compared to $587.2 million in 2000. The combined U.S. dollar EBIT of the segment's foreign affiliates increased from prior year. Increased shipments from the Company's operations throughout most of Europe and South America were partially offset by the effects of a strong U.S. dollar, higher energy costs worldwide, and lower shipments from the Company's operations in the United Kingdom and most of the Asia Pacific region. In the United States, Glass Container EBIT decreased from 2000 principally due to higher energy costs, which were not fully recovered through price adjustments. EBIT of the Plastics Packaging segment decreased $1.3 million, or 0.5%, to $247.9 million, compared to $249.2 million in 2000. Increased shipments of plastic containers and closures for food and health care, including prescription products, were more than offset by lower shipments of plastic containers for juice and other beverages and one-time costs associated with the relocation of a U.S. manufacturing operation to a new and larger facility to accommodate a growing business base.
Eliminations and other retained items, excluding the 2001 and 2000 unusual items, declined $81.3 million from 2000 reflecting lower net financial services income due to the sale of the Company's Harbor Capital Advisors business, higher spending on information systems, and certain employee benefit costs increases.
Restructuring and Impairment Charges
The 2001 operating results included pretax charges of $90.0 million related to the following: (1) charges of $82.1 million principally related to a restructuring program and impairment at certain of the Company's international and domestic operations. The charge included the impairment of assets at the Company's affiliate in Puerto Rico and the consolidation of manufacturing capacity and the closing of a facility in Venezuela. The program also included consolidation of capacity at certain other international and domestic facilities in response to decisions about pricing and market strategy and (2) a charge of $7.9 million related to restructuring manufacturing capacity in the medical devices business. The Company substantially completed these restructuring programs during 2002. The cost savings from the 2001 restructuring programs were not material.
The 2000 operating results included a pretax charge of $248.3 million, principally related to a restructuring and capacity realignment program. The restructuring and capacity realignment program, initiated in the third quarter of 2000, included the consolidation of manufacturing capacity and a reduction of 350 employees in the U.S. salaried work force, or about 10%, principally as a result of early retirement incentives. Also included in the charge was a write-down of plant and equipment for the Company's glass container affiliate in India and certain other asset write-offs, including $27.9 million for software which was abandoned. Manufacturing capacity consolidations principally involved U.S. glass container facilities and reflected technology-driven improvements in productivity, conversions of some juice and similar products to plastic containers, decisions regarding pricing and volume, and the further concentration of production in the most strategically-located facilities. The 2000 restructuring and capacity realignment program was substantially completed at the end of 2002.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
The Company's total debt at December 31, 2002 was $5.35 billion, compared to $5.40 billion at December 31, 2001.
During April 2001, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") with a group of banks, which expires on March 31, 2004. The Agreement provides for a $2.4 billion ($3.0 billion initially) revolving credit facility. The Agreement also initially provided for a $1.5 billion term loan which was repaid with the proceeds from the 2001
23
sale of the Company's Harbor Capital Advisors business and the issuance of Senior Secured Notes in 2002 as discussed below.
At December 31, 2002, the Company had available credit totaling $2.450 billion under the Agreement, of which $520.9 million had not been utilized. At December 31, 2001, the Company had $491.4 million of credit which had not been utilized under the Agreement. Cash provided by operating activities was $799.4 million for 2002 compared to $620.3 million for 2001.
During January 2002, a subsidiary of the Company issued $1.0 billion of Senior Secured Notes. The notes bear interest at 87/8% and are due February 15, 2009. The notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The issuing subsidiary used the net cash proceeds from the notes to reduce the outstanding term loan under the Agreement by $980 million. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees in January 2002 related to the term loan and recorded an extraordinary charge of $10.9 million less applicable income taxes of $4.2 million. The indenture for the notes restricts, among other things, the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to borrow money, pay dividends on, or redeem or repurchase stock, make investments, create liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, a subsidiary of the Company issued Senior Secured Notes totaling $625 million. The notes bear interest at 83/4% and are due November 15, 2012. The notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The issuing subsidiary used the net cash proceeds from the notes to repay the remaining $65 million of the outstanding term loan under the Agreement and to permanently reduce the revolving credit facility under the Agreement by $551 million. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to the term loan and the revolver and recorded an extraordinary charge of $4.5 million less applicable income taxes of $1.6 million. The indenture for the new notes has the same restrictions as the Senior Secured Notes issued in January 2002.
The $1.625 billion of Senior Secured Notes noted above that were issued during 2002 are part of the Company's plan to obtain longer term financing by issuing long term fixed rate debt. While this strategy extends the maturity of the Company's debt, the long-term fixed rate debt increases the cost of borrowing over the shorter term, variable rate debt. The Company expects that the higher cost debt will add approximately $25 million to interest expense in 2003. In 2003, the Company expects to continue refinancing its existing debt, including the Agreement, which may include the replacement of more of its shorter term, lower cost, variable rate debt with longer term, higher cost, fixed rate debt.
OI Inc. has substantial obligations related to semiannual interest payments on $1.7 billion of outstanding public debt securities. In addition, OI Inc. pays aggregate annual dividends of $21.5 million on 9,050,000 share of its $2.375 convertible preferred stock. OI Inc. also makes, and expects in the future to make, substantial indemnity payments and payments for legal fees and expenses in connection with asbestos-related lawsuits and claims. OI Inc.'s asbestos-related payments for 2002 were $221.1 million down from $245.9 million for 2001. OI Inc. expects that the gross amount of total asbestos-related payments will be moderately lower in 2003 compared to 2002. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from the Company to meet these obligations. Based on OI Inc.'s expectations regarding future payments for lawsuits and claims, and also based on the Company's expected operating cash flow, the Company believes that the payments to OI Inc. for any deferred amounts of previously settled or otherwise determined lawsuits and claims, and the resolution of presently pending and anticipated future lawsuits and claims associated with asbestos, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company's liquidity on a short-term or long-term basis.
24
The Agreement contains covenants and provisions that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, prepay other indebtedness or amend certain debt instruments, pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into contingent obligations, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations, change the business conducted, or engage in certain transactions with affiliates and otherwise restrict certain corporate activities. In addition, the Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios and meet specified tests based upon financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, including minimum fixed charge coverage ratios, maximum leverage ratios, minimum net worth and specified capital expenditure tests.
The Company anticipates that cash flow from its operations and from utilization of credit available through March 2004 under the Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operating and seasonal working capital needs, debt service and other obligations including payments to OI Inc. described above.
The following information summarizes the Company's significant contractual cash obligations at December 31, 2002 (millions of dollars).

Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company's analysis and discussion of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, including but not limited to those related to pension benefit plans and goodwill. Estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates may form the basis of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities and may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual results, under conditions and circumstances different from those assumed, may differ from estimates. The impact and any associated risks related to estimates and assumptions are discussed within Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, if applicable, where estimates and assumptions affect the Company's reported and expected financial results.
25
The Company believes that accounting for pension benefit plans and goodwill involves the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
Pension Benefit Plans
Because of their historically well-funded status, the Company's principal defined benefit pension plans contributed pretax credits to earnings of approximately $83.5 million for 2002 and approximately $97.0 million for 2001. The 2002 decrease in pretax pension credits is attributed to lower expected return on assets and the addition of pension obligations with the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc.
The determination of pension obligations and the related pension credits involves significant estimates. The most significant estimates are the discount rate used to calculate the actuarial present value of benefit obligations and the expected long-term rate of return on assets used in calculating the pension credits for the year. The Company uses a discount rate based on yields of highly rated fixed income debt securities at the end of the year. At December 31, 2002, the weighted average discount rate for all plans was 6.52%. The Company uses an expected long-term rate of return that is based on the past performance of the various plans' assets and an estimate of the future performance of the assets. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the weighted average expected long-term rate of return for all plans was 9.64%.
Declines in the stock market over the last few years have reduced the fair value of the Company's pension plan assets, which, in turn, has caused reduced credits to earnings. In 2003, the Company also expects to reduce its assumed rate of return on pension assets to a weighted average expected long-term rate of approximately 8.75%. The lower assumed rate, combined with a lower asset base, will cause the pretax credits to earnings to be substantially lower for the full year of 2003 as compared to 2002. The Company expects that these credits will be approximately $50 million, or 60%, lower in 2003 than for 2002.
Future effects on reported results of operations depend on economic conditions and investment performance. For example, a one-half percentage point change in the actuarial assumption regarding the expected return on assets would result in a change of approximately $15 million in pretax pension credits for the full year. In addition, changes in external factors, including the fair values of plan assets and the discount rate used to calculate plan liabilities, could result in possible future balance sheet recognition of additional minimum pension liabilities.
The Company's principal pension plan in the United Kingdom had an accumulated benefit obligation ("ABO") which exceeded the fair value of the plan's assets at December 31, 2002. As a result, the Company eliminated the prepaid pension asset related to that plan and recorded, as of December 31, 2002, a minimum pension liability of $92.2 million, an intangible asset of $12.1 million, and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $130.7 million.
At December 31, 2002, the Company's principal pension plans in the United States and Australia had plan assets with fair values in excess of each plan's ABO. If the ABO of these plans exceeds the fair value of their assets at December 31, 2003, the Company will be required to write off most of its prepaid pension asset ($925.5 million at December 31, 2002) and record a liability equal to the excess of the ABO over the fair value of the assets. The noncash charge would result in a decrease in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners' equity that would significantly reduce net worth.
Goodwill
Beginning in 2002, the Company will evaluate goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. Goodwill impairment testing is performed using the business
26
enterprise value ("BEV") of each reporting unit which is calculated as of a measurement date by determining the present value of debt-free, after tax future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third party buyer. This BEV is then compared to the book value of each reporting unit as of the measurement date to assess whether an impairment exists. The annual impairment testing performed as of October 1, 2002 indicated that there was no impairment of any of the reporting units of the Company.
If the Company's projected debt-free, after tax cash flows were substantially lower, or if the assumed weighted average cost of capital were substantially higher, the testing may have indicated an impairment of one or more reporting units and, as a result, the related goodwill would have been written down. However, based on the Company's testing as of October 1, 2002, modest changes in the projected cash flows or cost of capital would not create impairment in reporting units. For example, if projected debt-free, after tax cash flows were decreased by 5%, or alternatively if the weighted average cost of capital were increased by 5%, the resulting lower BEV's would still exceed the book value of each reporting unit and no impairment would exist. In the event the Company would be required to record a significant write down of goodwill, the charge would have a material adverse effect on reported results of operations and net worth.
ITEM 7.(A). QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risks relating to the Company's operations result primarily from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in interest rates, and changes in commodity prices, principally natural gas. The Company uses certain derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuating natural gas prices.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
A substantial portion of the Company's operations consists of manufacturing and sales activities conducted by affiliates in foreign jurisdictions. The primary foreign markets served by the Company's affiliates are in Australia, South America (principally Colombia, Brazil and Venezuela), and Europe (principally Italy, the United Kingdom, and Poland). In general, revenues earned and costs incurred by the Company's major foreign affiliates are denominated in their respective local currencies. Consequently, the Company's reported financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or highly inflationary economic conditions in the foreign markets in which the Company's affiliates operate. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the reported dollar value of local currency EBIT generally decreases; when the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the reported U.S. dollar value of local currency EBIT generally increases.
Subject to other business and tax considerations, the Company's strategy is to generally redeploy any affiliates' available excess funds through intercompany loans to other affiliates for debt repayment, capital investment, or other cash requirements. Each intercompany loan is denominated in the lender's local currency and the borrower enters into a forward exchange contract which effectively swaps the intercompany loan and related interest to its local currency.
Because the Company's foreign affiliates operate within their local economic environment, the Company believes it is appropriate to finance those operations with local currency borrowings to the extent practicable where debt financing is required. Considerations which influence the amount of such borrowings include long- and short-term business plans, tax implications, and the availability of borrowings with acceptable interest rates and terms. In those countries where the local currency is the designated functional currency, this strategy mitigates the risk of reported losses or gains in the event the foreign currency strengthens or weakens against the U.S. dollar. In those countries where the U.S. dollar is the designated functional currency, however, local currency borrowings expose the Company to
27
reported losses or gains in the event the foreign currency strengthens or weakens against the U.S. dollar.
The Company's Secured Credit Agreement requires that all borrowings other than borrowings under certain limited overdraft facilities, be denominated in U.S. dollars. As of December 31, 2002, U.S. dollar amounts outstanding under the Agreement borrowed by foreign affiliates were:
Affiliate location | Millions of U.S. dollars | ||
---|---|---|---|
Australia | $ | 701.0 | |
United Kingdom | 49.7 | ||
$ | 750.7 | ||
A significant portion of the above borrowings and of the intercompany loans have been swapped into local currencies using currency swaps. The Company accounts for these swaps as fair value hedges. As a result, the changes in the value of the swaps are included in other expense and are expected to substantially offset any exchange rate gains or losses on the related U.S. dollar borrowings.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's affiliate in Australia has swapped $650 million of borrowings into $1,275 million Australian dollars. This swap matures on May 1, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. The interest reset terms of the swap approximate the terms of the U.S. dollar borrowings. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Australian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to an Australian-based rate. The Company's affiliate in the United Kingdom has swapped $200 million of bank loans and intercompany borrowings into 139 million British pounds. This swap also matures on May 1, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to British pounds and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a British-based rate. The Company's affiliates in Australia and in the United Kingdom have also entered in short term forward exchange contracts which effectively swap additional intercompany and external borrowings at each of these affiliates to its local currency. These hedges swap both the interest and principal of additional borrowings in excess of the two major swap contracts mentioned above.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's Canadian affiliate has swapped $60 million of borrowings into $94.7 million Canadian dollars. This swap matures on October 1, 2003. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a Canadian-based rate.
The remaining portion of the Company's consolidated debt which was denominated in foreign currencies was not significant.
The Company believes it does not have material foreign currency exchange rate risk related to local currency denominated financial instruments (i.e. cash, short-term investments, and long-term debt) of its foreign affiliates.
28
Interest Rate Risk
The following table provides information about the Company's significant interest rate risk at December 31, 2002.
| Outstanding | Fair value | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Millions of dollars) | |||||||
Variable rate debt: | ||||||||
Secured Credit Agreement, matures March 2004: | ||||||||
Revolving Loans, interest at a Eurodollar based rate plus 2.00% | $ | 1,825.0 | $ | 1,825.0 | ||||
Fixed rate debt: | ||||||||
Senior Secured Notes: | ||||||||
8.875%, due 2009 | $ | 1,000.0 | $ | 1,037.5 | ||||
8.75%, due 2012 | $ | 625.0 | $ | 639.1 |
The Company's interest expense is most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates applicable to its U.S. dollar indebtedness. To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in variable interest rates, the Company could, at its option, convert to fixed interest rates by either refinancing variable rate debt with fixed rate debt or entering into interest rate swaps.
The fair value of OI Inc.'s $1.7 billion outstanding debt securities being guaranteed by the Company at December 31, 2002 was $1,623.1 million. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Commodity Risk
The Company is exposed to fluctuations of various commodity prices, most significantly the changes in prices related to natural gas. The Company purchases a significant amount of natural gas at nationally quoted market prices. The Company uses commodity futures contracts related to a portion of its forecasted natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid and the potential volatility in earnings or cash flows from future market price movements. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market in respect to its future usage requirements. The Company generally evaluates the natural gas market for the next twelve months and continually enters into commodity futures contracts in order to have a portion of its usage requirements hedged through the next twelve months. At December 31, 2002, the Company has entered into commodity futures contracts for approximately 25% of its North American natural gas usage through the end of 2003 (approximately 6,600 MM BTUs).
At December 31, 2002, an unrealized net gain of $2.2 million, after tax of $1.2 million, related to these commodity futures contracts was included in Other Comprehensive Income. There was no ineffectiveness recognized during 2002.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors and Share Owner
Owens-Illinois Group, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of results of operations, share owners' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, in 2002 the Company changed its accounting for goodwill.

OWENS-ILLINOIS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. ("Company") include the accounts of its subsidiaries. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. Prior to December 2000, substantially all of the Company's consolidated foreign subsidiaries reported their results of operations on a one-month lag, which allowed additional time to compile the results. The portion of the Company's consolidated net earnings for 2000 that was attributable to the earnings of these subsidiaries for the 12 months ended November 30, 2000 was $64.7 million ($107.5 million excluding unusual items). Beginning in December 2000, the one-month lag was eliminated. As a result, the December 2000 results of operations for these subsidiaries, which amounted to a net loss of $23.3 million, were recorded directly to retained earnings in December 2000. Earnings of most of these subsidiaries for the month of December are typically lower than most other months due to customer and factory holidays, fewer shipping days, and extended maintenance activity. The loss in December 2000 was greater than recent December periods as a result of lower than normal shipments for the month, lower selling prices due to product mix and currency exchange rates, high energy costs, and increased furnace repair work at several facilites.
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost.
Relationship with Owens-Illinois, Inc. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Owens-Illinois, Inc. ("OI Inc."). Although OI Inc. does not conduct any operations, it has substantial obligations related to outstanding indebtedness, dividends for preferred stock and asbestos-related payments. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries to meet these obligations.
For federal and certain state income tax purposes, the taxable income of the Company is included in the consolidated tax returns of OI Inc. and income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns. Current income taxes are recorded by the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns.
Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass container and plastics packaging products operating in two product segments. The Company's principal product lines in the Glass Containers product segment are glass containers for the food and beverage industries. Sales of the Glass Containers product segment were 69% of the Company's 2002 consolidated sales. The Company has glass container operations located in 19 countries, while the plastics packaging products operations are located in 12 countries. The principal markets and operations for the Company's glass products are in the North America, Europe, South America, and Australia. The Company's principal product lines in the Plastics Packaging product segment include consumer products (blow molded containers, injection molded closures and dispensing systems) and prescription containers. Major markets for the Company's plastics packaging products include the United States household products, personal care products, health care products, and food and beverage industries.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly. For further information on certain of the Company's significant estimates, see Note 19.
38
Cash The Company defines "cash" as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts reported for cash, short-term investments and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates. Fair values for the Company's significant fixed rate debt obligations are generally based on published market quotations. Derivative financial instruments are included on the balance sheet at fair value.
Inventory Valuation The Company values most U.S. inventories at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market. Other inventories are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs) or market.
Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. Through December 31, 2001, goodwill was being amortized over 40 years. In accordance with FAS No. 142 (as described in "New Accounting Standards"), goodwill is no longer being amortized, but is being evaluated annually, as of October 1, for impairment or more frequently if an impairment indicator exists.
Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that an impairment may exist. If an impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value.
Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded.
Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with manufacturing, shipping, and delivery costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes on Undistributed Earnings In general, the Company plans to continue to reinvest the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and foreign corporate joint ventures accounted for by the equity method. Accordingly, taxes are provided only on that amount of undistributed earnings in excess of planned reinvestments.
Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of most affiliates and associates are translated at current exchange rates and any related translation adjustments are recorded directly in share owners' equity. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company's affiliates located in Venezuela operated in a "highly inflationary" economy. Therefore, certain assets of these affiliates were translated at historical exchange rates and all translation adjustments were reflected in the statements of Consolidated Results of Operations. During 2002, the affiliates in Venezuela were no longer considered operating in a "highly inflationary" economy. Assets and liabilities were translated at
39
current exchange rates with any related translation adjustments being recorded directly to share owners' equity.
Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management's judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management's evaluation of business risk.
New Accounting Standards
FAS No. 142. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". As required by FAS No. 142, the Company is no longer amortizing goodwill, but will be reviewing goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment.
During the first quarter of 2002, the Company completed an impairment test under FAS No. 142 using the business enterprise value ("BEV") of each reporting unit. BEVs were calculated as of the measurement date, January 1, 2002, by determining the present value of debt-free, after-tax future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third party buyer. The BEV of each reporting unit was then compared to the book value of each reporting unit as of the measurement date to assess whether an impairment existed under FAS No. 142. Based on this comparison, the Company determined that an impairment existed in its consumer products reporting unit of the Plastics Packaging segment. The consumer products reporting unit operates in a highly competitive and fragmented industry. Excess capacity in this industry had created downward pricing pressure. The Company lowered its earnings and cash flow projections for this unit for several years following the measurement date which resulted in a lower BEV. Following a review of the valuation of the assets of the consumer products reporting unit, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $460.0 million to reduce the reported value of its goodwill. As required by FAS No. 142, the transitional impairment loss has been recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting.
The following earnings for 2001 and 2000 have been presented on an adjusted basis to eliminate goodwill amortization of $92.3 million and $94.9 million, respectively as required by FAS No. 142. The earnings for 2002 have been presented to provide comparative data to the 2001 and 2000 adjusted earnings.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Actual) | (Adjusted) | (Adjusted) | ||||||
Earnings before extraordinary items and cumulative effect of accounting change | $ | 318.2 | $ | 453.0 | $ | 167.2 | |||
Net earnings (loss) | $ | (151.4 | ) | $ | 448.9 | $ | 167.2 |
FAS No. 144. In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets". FAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. FAS No. 144 is effective for
40
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2002. The adoption of FAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FAS No. 145. In April 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, No. 44, and No. 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections". Among other things, FAS No. 145 requires gains and losses from early extinguishment of debt to be included in income from continuing operations instead of being classified as extraordinary items as previously required by generally accepted accounting principles. FAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 and will be adopted by the Company on January 1, 2003. Any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt that was classified as an extraordinary item in periods prior to adoption must be reclassified into income from continuing operations. The adoption of FAS No. 145 will require the $9.6 million and $4.1 million of extraordinary charges for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, to be reclassified to interest expense and the provision for income taxes.
FAS No. 146. In June 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". FAS No. 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities be recognized when the liability is incurred. The statement further requires that fair value be used for initial measurement of the liability. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company believes that the adoption of FAS No. 146 will not have a material impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FIN No. 45. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". The interpretation's disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has complied with the disclosure requirements of FIN 45 for the guarantees issued by its subsidiaries guaranteeing the debt of other subsidiaries.
2. Changes in Components of Working Capital Related to Operations Changes in the components of working capital related to operations (net of the effects related to acquisitions and divestitures) were as follows:

3. Inventories Major classes of inventory are as follows:
| 2002 | 2001 | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Finished goods | $ | 684.9 | $ | 641.8 | ||
Work in process | 7.4 | 6.2 | ||||
Raw materials | 133.2 | 125.3 | ||||
Operating supplies | 68.0 | 63.4 | ||||
$ | 893.5 | $ | 836.7 | |||
If the inventories which are valued on the LIFO method had been valued at standard costs, which approximate current costs, consolidated inventories would be higher than reported by $17.8 million and $19.9 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Inventories which are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs) or market at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were approximately $532.4 million and $501.7 million, respectively.

In April 2001, certain of the Company's subsidiaries (the "Borrowers") entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") with a group of banks, which expires on March 31, 2004. The Agreement provides for a $2.4 billion ($3.0 billion initially) revolving credit facility. The Agreement also initially provided for a $1.5 billion term loan which was repaid with the proceeds from the 2001 sale of the Company's Harbor Capital Advisors business and the issuance of Senior Secured Notes issued in 2002 as discussed below. The Agreement includes an Overdraft Account Facility providing for aggregate borrowings up to $50 million which reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, which also reduce the amount available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2002, the Company had unused credit of $520.9 million available under the Secured Credit Agreement.
The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is, at the Borrower's option, the Base Rate or a reserve adjusted Eurodollar rate. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility also includes a margin linked to the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Agreement. The margin is limited to ranges of 1.75% to 2.00% for Eurodollar loans and .75% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans. The interest rate on Overdraft Account loans is the Base Rate minus .50%. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2002 was 3.55%. Including the effects of cross-currency swap agreements related to Revolving Credit Facility borrowings by the Company's Australian, U.K., and Canadian subsidiaries, as discussed in Note 9, the weighted average interest rate was 5.53%. While no compensating balances are required by the Agreement, the Borrowers must pay a facility fee on the Revolving Credit Facility commitments of .50%.
Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company's domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries, which have a book value of approximately $3.7 billion. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company's domestic subsidiaries and certain stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. All borrowings under the agreement are guaranteed by substantially all domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Agreement.
43
Under the terms of the Agreement, payments for redemption of shares of the Company's common stock are subject to certain limitations. Dividend payments with respect to the Company's Preferred or Common Stock may be impacted by certain covenants. The Agreement also requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain financial ratios, and restricts the creation of liens and certain types of business activities and investments.
During January 2002, a subsidiary of the Company issued $1.0 billion of Senior Secured Notes. The notes bear interest at 87/8% and are due February 15, 2009. The notes are guaranteed by the Company and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries. This guarantee expires in 2009. The assets of substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The issuing subsidiary used the net cash proceeds from the notes to reduce the outstanding term loan under the Agreement by $980 million. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees in January 2002 related to the term loan and recorded an extraordinary charge of $10.9 million less applicable income taxes of $4.2 million. The indenture for the notes restricts, among other things, the ability of the Company's subsidiaries to borrow money, pay dividends on, or redeem or repurchase stock, make investments, create liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, a subsidiary of the Company issued Senior Secured Notes totaling $625 million. The notes bear interest at 83/4% and are due November 15, 2012. The notes are guaranteed by the Company and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries. This guarantee expires in 2012. The assets of substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The issuing subsidiary used the net cash proceeds from the notes to repay the remaining $65 million of the outstanding term loan under the Agreement and to permanently reduce the revolving credit facility under the Agreement by $551 million. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to the term loan and the revolver and recorded an extraordinary charge of $4.5 million less applicable income taxes of $1.6 million. The indenture for the new notes has the same restrictions as the Senior Secured Notes issued in January 2002.
Amounts paid to OI Inc. above equal OI Inc.'s total indebtedness. Interest costs on amounts payable to OI Inc. are charged to the Company in the same amount as incurred by OI Inc. During the second quarter of 2001, OI Inc. sought and received consent from the holders of a majority of the principal amount of each of its six series of senior notes and debentures to amend the indenture governing those securities. The amendments implement a previously announced offer by the Company and a principal subsidiary of the Company to guarantee the senior notes and debentures on a subordinated basis. The fair value of the OI Inc. debt being guaranteed by the Company at December 31, 2002 was $1,623.1 million.
Annual maturities for all of the Company's long-term debt through 2007 are as follows: 2003, $30.7 million; 2004, $2,155.7 million; 2005, $402.3 million; 2006, $12.7 million; and 2007, $311.5 million.
Interest paid in cash aggregated $372.1 million for 2002, $424.7 million for 2001, and $467.6 million for 2000.
Fair values at December 31, 2002, of the Company's significant fixed rate debt obligations are as follows:
| Principal Amount (millions of dollars) | Indicated Market Price | Fair Value (millions of dollars) | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Senior Secured Notes: | ||||||||||
8.875% | $ | 1,000.0 | $ | 103.75 | $ | 1,037.5 | ||||
8.75% | 625.0 | 102.25 | 639.1 |

6. Operating Leases Rent expense attributable to all operating leases was $90.2 million in 2002, $87.0 million in 2001, and $77.8 million in 2000. Minimum future rentals under operating leases are as follows: 2003, $66.4 million; 2004, $52.2 million; 2005, $41.4 million; 2006, $31.7 million; and 2007, $21.0 million; and 2008 and thereafter, $29.2 million.
7. Foreign Currency Translation Aggregate foreign currency exchange gains (losses) included in other costs and expenses were $2.0 million in 2002, $2.6 million in 2001, and $(1.0) million in 2000.
8. Derivative Instruments Under the terms of the April 2001 Secured Credit Agreement, the Company's affiliates in Australia and the United Kingdom are permitted to borrow in U.S. dollars. In order to manage the international affiliates' exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates, the Company's affiliates in Australia and the United Kingdom have entered into currency swaps for the principal portion of their initial borrowings under the Agreement and for their interest payments due under the Agreement.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's affiliate in Australia has swapped $650 million of borrowings into $1,275 million Australian dollars. This swap matures on May 1, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. The interest reset terms of the swap approximate the terms of the U.S. dollar borrowings. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Australian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to an Australian-based rate. The Company's affiliate in the United Kingdom has swapped $200 million of bank loans and intercompany borrowings into 139 million British pounds. This swap also matures on May 1, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to British pounds and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a British-based rate. The Company's affiliates in Australia and in the United Kingdom have also entered in short term forward exchange contracts which effectively swap additional intercompany and external borrowings at each of these affiliates to its local currency. These hedges swap both the interest and principal of additional borrowings in excess of the two major swap contracts mentioned above.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's Canadian affiliate has swapped $60 million of borrowings into $94.7 million Canadian dollars. This swap matures on October 1, 2003. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a Canadian-based rate.
The Company recognizes the above derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company accounts for the above swaps as fair value hedges. As such, the changes in the value of the swaps are included in other expense and are expected to substantially offset any exchange rate gains or losses on the related U.S. dollar borrowings. For 2002, the amount not offset was immaterial.
The Company also uses commodity futures contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid for natural gas and the potential volatility in earnings or cash flows from future market price movements. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market in respect to its future usage requirements. The Company generally evaluates the natural gas market for the next twelve months and continually enters into commodity futures contracts in order to have a portion of its usage requirements hedged through the next twelve months. At December 31, 2002, the Company has entered into commodity futures contracts for approximately 25% of its North American natural gas usage through the end of 2003 (approximately 6,600 MM BTUs).
The Company accounts for the above futures contracts on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as and meets the
45
required criteria for a cash flow hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognized in current earnings.
The above futures contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2002. Hedge accounting is only applied when the derivative is deemed to be highly effective at offsetting anticipated cash flows of the hedged transactions. For hedged forecasted transactions, hedge accounting will be discontinued if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable to occur, and any previously deferred gains or losses will be recorded to earnings immediately.
At December 31, 2002, an unrealized net gain of $2.2 million, after tax of $1.2 million, related to these commodity futures contracts was included in OCI. There was no ineffectiveness recognized during 2002.
The Company's international affiliates may enter into short-term forward exchange agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These foreign currency forward exchange agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for all significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in a currency other than the affiliate's functional currency. Affiliates may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables not denominated in their functional currency. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are charged to earnings.
9. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) The components of comprehensive income (loss) are: (a) net earnings (loss); (b) change in fair value of certain derivative instruments; (c) adjustment of minimum pension liabilities; and, (d) foreign currency translation adjustments. The net effect of exchange rate fluctuations generally reflects changes in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against major foreign currencies between the beginning and end of the year.
The following table lists the beginning balance, yearly activity and ending balance of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss):

At December 31, 2002, the Company had unused net operating losses and research tax credits expiring from 2007 to 2022.
The Company also has unused alternative minimum tax credits which do not expire and which will be available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax.
At December 31, 2002, the Company's equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $865.9 million. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be payable should these earnings be distributed.
11. Participation in OI Inc. Stock Option Plans The Company participates in the stock option plans of OI Inc. under which employees of the Company may be granted options to purchase common shares of OI Inc. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, subject to accelerated exercisability provisions, 50% of the options become exercisable on the fifth anniversary of the date of the option grant, with the remaining 50% becoming exercisable on the sixth anniversary date of the option grant. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the day after the tenth anniversary date of the option grant.
All options have been granted at prices equal to the market price of OI Inc.'s common stock on the date granted. Accordingly, the Company recognizes no compensation expense related to the stock option plans. If the Company had elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as allowed by FAS No. 123, pro forma net income (loss) would have been as follows:
| 2002 | 2001 | 2000 | ||||||||

13. Pension Benefit Plans Net credits to results of operations for all of the Company's pension plans and certain deferred compensation arrangements amounted to $72.5 million in 2002, $83.4 million in 2001, and $88.6 million in 2000.
On October 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc. As part of the transaction, the Company assumed certain of the pension liabilities of Consumers Packaging. The information below includes the activity of these pension plans from October 1, 2001.
The Company has defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees located in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. The Company's policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. The following tables relate to the Company's principal defined benefit pension plans in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada.
The changes in the pension benefit obligations for the year were as follows:

Accumulated benefit obligations | $ | 513.5 | $ | 145.8 | ||
Fair value of plan assets | 372.4 | 131.5 | ||||
The actuarial present value of benefit obligations is based on a weighted discount rate of 6.52% for 2002 and 6.95% for 2001. Future benefits are assumed to increase in a manner consistent with past experience of the plans, which, to the extent benefits are based on compensation, includes assumed salary increases on a weighted scale of 4.72% for 2002 and 2001. The expected weighted long-term rate of return on assets was 9.64% for 2002, and 10.12% for 2001 and 2000. Amortization included in net pension credits is based on the average remaining service of employees. Plan assets include marketable equity securities (which at December 31, 2002 and 2001 included 14,423,621 shares of the Company's common stock), government and corporate debt securities, real estate and commingled funds.
The Company recognized a minimum pension liability for the pension plan in the United Kingdom that is equal to the difference between the accumulated benefit obligation over plan assets in excess of accrued pension cost. In addition to eliminating the prepaid pension asset, a corresponding amount is recognized as both an intangible asset and a reduction of equity. Pursuant to this requirement, the Company recorded, as of December 31, 2002 a minimum pension liability $92.2 million, an intangible asset of $12.1 million, and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $130.7 million.
The Company also sponsors several defined contribution plans for all salaried and hourly U.S. employees. Participation is voluntary and participants' contributions are based on their compensation. The Company matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. Company contributions to these plans amounted to $9.3 million in 2002, $9.2 million in 2001, and $10.2 million in 2000.

14. Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions The Company provides certain retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering substantially all U.S. salaried and certain hourly employees. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service.
On October 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc. The information below includes the activity of the related Canadian retiree health care plan from October 1, 2001.

Assumed health care cost inflation was based on a weighted average rate of 11.60% in 2002, declining to an ultimate rate of 5.94%. A one percentage point decrease in the rate would have decreased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2002 by $15.4 million and decreased the net postretirement benefit cost for 2002 by $1.3 million. A one percentage point increase in the rate would have increased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2002 by $18.1 million and increased the net postretirement benefit cost for 2002 by $1.6 million. The assumed weighted average discount rates used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation were 6.72% and 7.18% at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Amortization included in net postretirement benefit cost is based on the average remaining service of employees.
Benefits provided by the Company for certain of the hourly retirees are determined by collective bargaining. Most other domestic hourly retirees receive health and life insurance benefits from a multi-employer trust established by collective bargaining. Payments to the trust as required by the bargaining agreements are based upon specified amounts per hour worked and were $6.2 million in 2002, $6.3 million in 2001, and $7.5 million in 2000. Postretirement health and life benefits for retirees of foreign affiliates are generally provided through the national health care programs of the countries in which the affiliates are located.
15. Other Revenue Other revenue in 2001 includes a gain of $457.3 million related to the sale of the Harbor Capital Advisors business and gains totaling $13.1 million related to the sale of the Company's label business and the sale of a minerals business in Australia.
16. Other Costs and Expenses Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 included pretax charges of $129.5 million related to the following:
- •
- Impairment charges of $25.2 million to write down the majority of the long-lived assets at the Company's glass container facility in Puerto Rico. While the Company intends to continue to operate this facility, an analysis of cash flows indicated that the long-lived assets, including buildings, furnaces and factory equipment, were impaired.
- •
- Impairment charges of $16.5 million to substantially write off buildings, furnaces and factory equipment related to the permanent closing of a glass container facility in Venezuela.
- •
- Impairment charges of $31.0 million at various other international and domestic facilities in response to decisions about pricing and market strategy. These charges related to the permanent closing of the flat glass facility in Venezuela and two domestic plastics packaging facilities and the abandonment of certain equipment at various locations.
- •
- Other costs of $9.4 million related to closing facilities and reducing workforce. The total workforce reductions involved approximately 400 employees at a cost of approximately $7.5 million, of which substantially all had been paid out at December 31, 2002.
- •
- A charge of $31.0 million related to the loss on the sale of the Company's facilities in India.
- •
- A charge of $8.5 million for certain contingencies.
- •
- A charge of $7.9 million related to restructuring manufacturing capacity in the medical devices business.
Actions related to the restructuring and impairment charges were substantially completed during 2002.
Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 included charges of $248.3 million principally related to a restructuring and capacity realignment program. The restructuring and capacity
54
realignment program, initiated in the third quarter of 2000, included the consolidation of manufacturing capacity and a reduction of 350 employees in the U.S. salaried work force, or about 10%, principally as a result of early retirement incentives. Also included in the program were a write-down of plant and equipment at the Company's glass container facilities in India and certain other asset write-offs. Manufacturing capacity consolidations involved three U.S. glass container facilities which were closed and reflected technology-driven improvements in productivity, conversions from some juice and similar products to plastic containers, Company and customer decisions regarding pricing and volume and the further concentration of production in the most strategically-located facilities. The property, plant and equipment at the three facilities, consisting of land, buildings, furnaces and factory equipment, was written down by $49.0 million to substantially write off these assets. The Company does not expect to pay any significant future cash payments related to the closing of these facilities. Other 2000 pretax charges of $33.5 million related principally to a $27.9 million write off of software that had been abandoned. During the third quarter of 2000, the Company decided, principally as a cost control measure, to abandon certain portions of a major software project and wrote off the associated costs.
As a result of a 10% reduction of the U.S. salaried workforce in 2000, the Company recognized a settlement gain of approximately $40 million related to its defined benefit pension plan. This gain was included in a net charge of $52.4 million for retirement incentives and special termination benefits.
The 2000 pretax charge of $40.0 million was related to the write-down of property, plant and equipment in India. Based on the Company's expectation of future net cash flows from its operations in India, the related property, plant, and equipment was written down to realizable values in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."

Capacity realignment included charges for plant closing costs, severance benefits, and write-downs of assets for disposal or abandonment as a result of restructuring of manufacturing capacity. Write-downs of assets represented the majority of the charges for 2001.
17. Extraordinary Charges from Early Extinguishment of Debt During 2002, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to indebtedness repaid prior to its scheduled maturity. As a result, the Company recorded extraordinary charges totaling $15.4 million less applicable income taxes of $5.8 million. During 2001, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to indebtedness repaid prior to its scheduled maturity. As a result, the Company recorded extraordinary charges totaling $6.6 million less applicable income taxes of $2.5 million.
18. Contingencies OI Inc. is one of a number of defendants in a substantial number of lawsuits filed in numerous state and federal courts by persons alleging bodily injury (including death) as a result of
56
exposure to dust from asbestos fibers. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its subsidiaries, including the Company, to fund its indemnity payments and legal fees related to these lawsuits.
From 1948 to 1958, one of OI Inc.'s former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based pipe and block insulation material containing asbestos. OI Inc. exited the pipe and block insulation business in April 1958. The traditional asbestos personal injury lawsuits and claims relating to such production and sale of asbestos material typically allege various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seek compensatory and in some cases, punitive damages in various amounts (herein referred to as "asbestos claims").
The following table shows the approximate number of plaintiffs and claimants involved in asbestos claims pending at the beginning of, disposed of and filed during, and pending at the end of, each of the years listed (eliminating duplicate filings):
| 2002 | 2001 | 2000 | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pending at beginning of year | 27,000 | 20,000 | 17,000 | |||
Disposed | 24,000 | 24,000 | 17,000 | |||
Filed | 21,000 | 31,000 | 20,000 | |||
Pending at end of year | 24,000 | 27,000 | 20,000 | |||
Approximately 55% of the currently pending claims and lawsuits set forth above involve multiple claimants, and virtually all of the pending claims and lawsuits name a number of additional defendants (typically from 20 to 100 or more). Approximately 40% of the claimants and plaintiffs do not specify the monetary damages sought. Another 39% of the plaintiffs merely recite that the amount of damages sought exceeds the required jurisdictional minimum damages in the court of jurisdiction in which the suit is filed. Approximately 14% of the plaintiffs specify the maximum damages sought in amounts from $10 million to $40 million. Lastly, fewer than 7% of the plaintiffs are involved in lawsuits which specify precise damage amounts, with approximately 5.8% specifying amounts up to $20 million; approximately 0.2% specifying amounts from $20 million to $75 million; and, approximately 0.5% specifying amounts from $75 million to $125 million. In addition, one lawsuit, pending since 1991 and involving fewer than 0.2% of the plaintiffs and approximately 60 defendants, specifies damages of $11 billion.
As indicated by the foregoing summary, modern pleading practice permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages. This variability, together with the actual experience discussed further below of litigating or resolving through settlement hundreds of thousands of asbestos claims and lawsuits over an extended period, demonstrates that the monetary relief which may be specified in a lawsuit or claim bears little relevance to its merits or disposition value. Rather, the amount potentially recoverable for a specific claimant is determined by other factors such as the claimant's severity of disease, product identification evidence against specific defendants, the defenses available to those defendants, the specific jurisdiction in which the claim is made, the claimant's history of smoking or exposure to other possible disease-causative factors, and the various other matters discussed further below.
In addition to the pending claims set forth above, OI Inc. has claims-handling agreements in place with many plaintiffs' counsel throughout the country. These agreements require evaluation and negotiation regarding whether particular claimants qualify under the criteria established by such agreements. The criteria for such claims include verification of a compensable illness and a reasonable probability of exposure to a product manufactured by the OI Inc.'s former business unit during its
57
manufacturing period ending in 1958. Some plaintiffs' counsel have historically withheld claims under these agreements for later presentation while focusing their attention on active litigation in the tort system. OI Inc. believes that as of December 31, 2002 there are no more than 18,500 of such preexisting but presently unasserted claims against OI Inc. that are not included in the total of pending claims specified in the preceding paragraph. OI Inc. further believes that the bankruptcies of additional co-defendants, as discussed below, have resulted in an acceleration of the presentation and disposition of a number of these previously withheld preexisting claims under such agreements, which claims would otherwise have been presented and disposed of over the next several years. This acceleration is reflected in an increased number of pending asbestos claims and, to the extent disposed, contributes to an increase in asbestos-related payments which is expected to continue in the near term.
OI Inc. is also a defendant in other asbestos-related lawsuits or claims involving maritime workers, medical monitoring claimants, co-defendants and property damage claimants. Based upon its past experience, OI Inc. believes that these categories of lawsuits and claims will not involve any material liability and they are not included in the above description of pending matters or in the following description of disposed matters.
Since receiving its first asbestos claim, OI Inc., as of December 31, 2002, has disposed of the asbestos claims of approximately 286,000 plaintiffs and claimants at an average indemnity payment per claim of approximately $5,600. OI Inc.'s indemnity payments for these claims have varied on a per claim basis, and are expected to continue to vary considerably over time. As discussed above, a part of OI Inc.'s objective is to achieve, where possible, resolution of asbestos claims pursuant to claims-handling agreements. Under such agreements, qualification by meeting certain illness and exposure criteria has tended to reduce the number of claims presented to OI Inc. that would ultimately be dismissed or rejected due to the absence of impairment or product exposure evidence. OI Inc. expects that as a result, although aggregate spending may be lower, there may be an increase in the per claim average indemnity payment involved in such resolution. In this regard, although the average of such payments has been somewhat higher following the implementation of the claims-handling agreements in the mid-1990s, the annual average amount has not varied materially from year to year in recent years.
OI Inc. believes that its ultimate asbestos-related contingent liability (i.e., its indemnity or other claim disposition costs plus related legal fees) cannot be estimated with certainty. In 1993, OI Inc. established a liability of $975 million to cover indemnity payments and legal fees associated with the resolution of outstanding and expected future asbestos lawsuits and claims. In 1998, an additional liability of $250 million was established. During the third quarter of 2000, OI Inc. established an additional liability of $550 million to cover OI Inc.'s estimated indemnity payments and legal fees arising from outstanding asbestos personal injury lawsuits and claims and asbestos personal injury lawsuits and claims expected to be filed in the ensuing several years. OI Inc.'s ability to reasonably estimate its liability has been significantly affected by the volatility of asbestos-related litigation in the United States, the expanding list of non-traditional defendants that have been sued in this litigation and found liable for substantial damage awards, the continued use of litigation screenings to generate new lawsuits, the large number of claims asserted or filed by parties who claim prior exposure to asbestos materials but have no present physical impairment as a result of such exposure, and the growing number of co-defendants that have filed for bankruptcy. In 2002, North American Refractories Co., Kaiser Aluminum Corporation, Harbison Walker Refractories Group, A.P. Green Industries, Inc., Porter Hayden Company, Plibrico Company, Shook & Fletcher Insulation Co., Artra Group (Synkoloid Company), AC&S, A-Best Company and JT Thorpe Co. declared bankruptcy. These companies join others, such as G-I Holdings (GAF), USG Corporation, Federal-Mogul Corporation, Burns & Roe Enterprises, Inc., W.R. Grace & Co., Owens Corning, Fibreboard Corporation, Pittsburgh-Corning,
58
Babcock & Wilcox, Armstrong World Industries and approximately 40 other asbestos defendants who have sought protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
OI Inc. has continued to monitor trends which may affect its ultimate liability and has continued to analyze the developments and variables affecting or likely to affect the resolution of pending and future asbestos claims against OI Inc. OI Inc. expects that the gross amount of total asbestos-related payments will be moderately lower in 2003 compared to 2002 and will continue to decline thereafter as the preexisting but presently unasserted claims withheld under the claims handling agreements are presented to OI Inc. and as the number of potential future claimants continues to decrease. However, the trend toward lower aggregate annual payments has not occurred as soon as had been anticipated when the additional liability was established in 2000. In addition, the number of claims and lawsuits filed against OI Inc. has exceeded the number anticipated at that time. In early March 2002, OI Inc. initiated a comprehensive review to determine whether further adjustment of asbestos-related liabilities was appropriate. At the conclusion of this review in April, OI Inc. determined that an additional charge of $475 million would be appropriate to adjust the reserve for estimated future asbestos-related costs. The material components of OI Inc.'s accrual, including this additional accrued amount, are the following: (i) OI Inc.'s estimate at that date of the reasonably probable contingent liability for asbestos claims already asserted against OI Inc., (ii) OI Inc.'s estimate at that date of the contingent liability for preexisting but unasserted asbestos claims for prior periods arising under its administrative claims-handling agreements with various plaintiffs' counsel, (iii) OI Inc.'s estimate at that time of the contingent liability for asbestos claims not yet asserted against the OI Inc., but which OI Inc. believes it is reasonably probable will be asserted in the next several years, to the degree that such an estimation as to future claims is possible, and (iv) OI Inc.'s estimate of legal defense costs likely to be incurred in connection with the foregoing types of claims.
The significant assumptions underlying the material components of the OI Inc's accrual are:
- a)
- the extent to which settlements are limited to claimants who were exposed to the OI Inc.'s asbestos-containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958;
- b)
- the extent to which claims are resolved under the OI Inc's administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements;
- c)
- the extent of reduction in the inventory of pending serious disease cases;
- d)
- the extent to which OI Inc. is able to successfully defend itself at trial;
- e)
- the extent of actions by courts to eliminate or reduce the diversion of financial resources for unimpaired claimants and so-called forum shopping;
- f)
- the extent to which additional defendants with substantial resources and assets are required to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos cases and claims;
- g)
- the number and timing of co-defendant bankruptcies; and
- h)
- the extent to which the resolution of co-defendant bankruptcies divert resources to unimpaired claimants.
OI Inc. believes that any possible loss or range of loss in addition to the foregoing charge cannot be reasonably estimated. While OI Inc. cannot reasonably estimate the precise timing of payment, OI Inc. believes that its liabilities for the next several years will not exceed the amount accrued, based on its expectation of continuing moderate declines in annual spending for asbestos-related costs.
59
OI Inc. has previously pursued recovery of its losses from third parties, particularly its insurance carriers, and has largely resolved all of its significant coverage claims. OI Inc. expects some further recovery from deferred payment provisions of existing settlement agreements and from pursuing certain additional reimbursement claims. However, OI Inc. does not expect to recover additional material amounts in excess of the recorded receivable of $12.2 million at December 31, 2002.
The ultimate amount of distributions which may be required to be made by the Company and other subsidiaries of OI Inc. to fund OI Inc.'s asbestos-related payments cannot be estimated with certainty. OI Inc.'s reported results of operations for 2002 have been materially affected by the $475 million first quarter charge and asbestos-related payments continue to be substantial. Any possible future additional accrual would likewise materially affect OI Inc.'s results of operations in the period in which it might be recorded. Also, the continued use of significant amounts of cash for asbestos-related costs has affected and will continue to affect OI Inc.'s cost of borrowing and its ability to pursue global or domestic acquisitions. However, OI Inc. believes that its operating cash flows and other sources of liquidity will be sufficient to pay its obligations for asbestos-related costs and to fund its working capital and capital expenditure requirements on a short-term and long-term basis.
In April 1999, Crown Cork & Seal Technologies Corporation ("CCS") filed suit against Continental PET Technologies, Inc. ("CPT"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware alleging that certain plastic containers manufactured by CPT, primarily multi-layer PET containers with barrier properties, infringe CCS's U.S. Patent 5,021,515 relating to an oxygen-scavenging material. CCS is a party to an agreement with Chevron Philips Chemical Company ("Chevron") under which Chevron has rights to sublicense certain CCS patents, including, Chevron believed, the patent involved in the suit against CPT. To avoid the cost of litigation, CPT took a sublicense from Chevron under the patent in suit and other patents. Chevron then entered the suit to defend and assert its right to sublicense the patent in suit to CPT. In November 2002, the Delaware District Court concluded that Chevron did not have the rights it purported to sublicense to CPT.
Subject to any appeal by Chevron, the decision will allow CCS to pursue its lawsuit against CPT, which is in its initial stages and was stayed pending resolution of the Chevron claims. In the lawsuit, CCS seeks certain monetary damages and injunctive relief. At such time as the suit against CPT is reinstituted, CPT will pursue all defenses available to it. However, if the Court were to reach conclusions adverse to CPT on the claims for monetary damages asserted by CCS, the Company believes such determination would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position, and any such damages could be covered in part by third party indemnification. Additionally, an adverse decision with respect to CCS's request for injunctive relief is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company because it believes that it can pursue alternative technologies for the manufacture of multi-layer PET containers with barrier properties.
Certain other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are nonroutine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The ultimate legal and financial liability of the Company in respect to this pending litigation cannot be estimated with certainty. However, the Company believes, based on its examination and review of such matters and experience to date, that such ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition.

19. Segment Information The Company operates in the rigid packaging industry. The Company has two reportable product segments within the rigid packaging industry: (1) Glass Containers and (2) Plastics Packaging. The Glass Containers segment includes operations in North America, Europe, the Asia Pacific region, and South America. The Plastics Packaging segment consists of two business units—consumer products (plastic containers and closures) and prescription products. The Other segment consists primarily of the Company's labels and carriers products business unit, substantially all of which was divested in early 2001.
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on earnings before interest income, interest expense, provision for income taxes, minority share owners' interests in earnings of subsidiaries, extraordinary charges and cumulative effect of accounting change (collectively "EBIT") excluding unusual items. EBIT for product segments includes an allocation of corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. For the Company's U.S. pension plans, net periodic pension cost (credit) has been allocated to product segments while the related prepaid pension asset is included in the caption "Eliminations and Other Retained". Net sales as shown in the geographic segment information are based on the location of the Company's affiliate which recorded the sales.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to current year presentation.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 14. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management of the Company, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Also, the Company has investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As the Company does not control or manage these entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those maintained by the Company with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.
Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Since the date the Company completed its evaluation to the date of this report, there have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc. at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

OWENS-BROCKWAY PACKAGING, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular Data in millions of dollars)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc. ("Company") include the accounts of its subsidiaries. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. Prior to December 2000, substantially all of the Company's consolidated foreign subsidiaries reported their results of operations on a one-month lag, which allowed additional time to compile the results. Beginning in December 2000, the one-month lag was eliminated. As a result, the December 2000 results of operations for these subsidiaries, which amounted to a net loss of $25.0 million, were recorded directly to net Parent investment in December 2000. Earnings of most of these subsidiaries for the month of December are typically lower than most other months due to customer and factory holidays, fewer shipping days, and extended maintenance activity. The loss in December 2000 was greater than recent December periods as a result of lower than normal shipments for the month, lower selling prices due to product mix and currency exchange rates, high energy costs, and increased furnace repair work at several facilities.
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost.
Relationship with Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. and Owens-Illinois, Inc. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. ("OI Group") and an indirect subsidiary of Owens-Illinois, Inc. ("OI Inc."). Although OI Inc. does not conduct any operations, it has substantial obligations related to outstanding indebtedness, dividends for preferred stock and asbestos-related payments. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries to meet these obligations.
For federal and certain state income tax purposes, the taxable income of the Company is included in the consolidated tax returns of OI Inc. and income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns.
Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass container products. The Company's principal product lines in the Glass Containers product segment are glass containers for the food and beverage industries. The Company has glass container operations located in 19 countries. The principal markets and operations for the Company's glass products are in North America, Europe, South America, and Australia. One customer accounted for 12.8%, 11.5%, and 10.9% of the Company's sales in 2002, 2001, and 2000 respectively.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly.
Cash The Company defines "cash" as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable.
90
Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts reported for cash, short-term investments and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates. Fair values for the Company's significant fixed rate debt obligations are generally based on published market quotations. Derivative financial instruments are included on the balance sheet at fair value.
Inventory Valuation The Company values most U.S. inventories at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market. Other inventories are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs) or market.
Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. Through December 31, 2001, goodwill was being amortized over 40 years. In accordance with FAS No. 142 (as described in "New Accounting Standards"), goodwill is no longer being amortized, but is being evaluated annually, as of October 1, for impairment or more frequently if an impairment indicator exists.
Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. The Company evaluates the recoverability of amortizable intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that an impairment may exist. If an impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value.
Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded.
Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with manufacturing, shipping, and delivery costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes on Undistributed Earnings In general, the Company plans to continue to reinvest the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and foreign corporate joint ventures accounted for by the equity method. Accordingly, taxes are provided only on that amount of undistributed earnings in excess of planned reinvestments.
Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of most affiliates and associates are translated at current exchange rates and any related translation adjustments are recorded directly in net Parent investment. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company's affiliates located in Venezuela operated in a "highly inflationary" economy. Therefore, certain assets of these affiliates were translated at historical exchange rates and all translation adjustments were reflected in the statements of Consolidated Results of Operations. During 2002, the affiliates in Venezuela were no longer considered operating in a "highly inflationary" economy. Assets and liabilities will be translated at current exchange rates with any related translation adjustments being recorded directly to net Parent investment.
91
Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management's judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management's evaluation of business risk.
Participation in OI Inc. Stock Option Plans The Company participates in the stock option plans of OI Inc. under which employees of the Company may be granted options to purchase common shares of OI Inc. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, subject to certain accelerated exercisability provisions, 50% of the options become exercisable on the fifth anniversary of the date of the option grant, with the remaining 50% becoming exercisable on the sixth anniversary date of the option grant. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the day after the tenth anniversary date of the option grant.
All options have been granted at prices equal to the market price of OI Inc.'s common stock on the date granted. Accordingly, the Company recognizes no compensation expense related to the stock option plans. OI Inc. has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."
A substantial number of the options have been granted to key employees of another subsidiary of OI Inc., some of whose compensation costs are included in an allocation of costs to all operating subsidiaries of OI Inc., including the Company. It is not practical to determine an amount of additional compensation allocable to the Company if OI Inc. had elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as allowed by FAS No. 123.
New Accounting Standards
FAS No. 142. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". As required by FAS No. 142, the Company is no longer amortizing goodwill, but will be reviewing goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment.
During the first quarter of 2002, the Company completed an impairment test under FAS No. 142 using the business enterprise value ("BEV") of each reporting unit. BEVs were calculated as of the measurement date, January 1, 2002, by determining the present value of debt-free, after-tax future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third party buyer. The BEV of each reporting unit was then compared to the book value of each reporting unit as of the measurement date to assess whether an impairment existed under FAS No. 142. Although the Company is principally a manufacturer of glass container products, it does own certain small entities which are part of OI Inc.'s consumer plastic products reporting unit. The Company determined that an impairment existed in the consumer plastic products reporting unit, which operates in a highly competitive and fragmented industry. Excess capacity in this industry had created downward pricing pressure. OI Inc. lowered its earnings and cash flow projections for this unit for several years following the measurement date which resulted in a lower BEV. Following a review of the valuation of the assets of the consumer plastic products reporting unit, the Company has recorded an impairment charge of
92
$47.0 million. As required by FAS No. 142, the transitional impairment loss has been recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting.
The following earnings for 2001 and 2000 have been presented on an adjusted basis to eliminate goodwill amortization $45.2 million and $47.9 million for 2001 and 2000, respectively, as required by FAS No. 142.

FAS No. 144. In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets". FAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. FAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2002. The adoption of FAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FAS No. 145. In April 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, No. 44, and No. 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections". Among other things, FAS No. 145 requires gains and losses from early extinguishment of debt to be included in income from continuing operations instead of being classified as extraordinary items as previously required by generally accepted accounting principles. FAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 and will be adopted by the Company on January 1, 2003. Any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt that was classified as an extraordinary item in periods prior to adoption must be reclassified into income from continuing operations. The adoption of FAS No. 145 will require the $8.8 million of extraordinary charges for 2002, to be reclassified to interest expense and the provision for income taxes.
FAS No. 146. In June 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". FAS No. 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities be recognized when the liability is incurred. The statement further requires that fair value be used for initial measurement of the liability. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company believes that the adoption of FAS No. 146 will not have a material impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FIN No. 45. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". The interpretation's disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has complied with the disclosure requirements of FIN 45 for the guarantees issued by its subsidiaries guaranteeing the debt of other subsidiaries.

In April 2001, OI Group and certain of its subsidiaries, including the Company and certain of its foreign subsidiaries (the "Borrowers") entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") with a group of banks, which expires on March 31, 2004. The Agreement provides for a $2.4 billion ($3.0 billion initially) revolving credit facility. The Agreement also initially provided for a $1.5 billion term loan which was repaid with the proceeds from the 2001 sale of OI Group's Harbor Capital Advisors business and the issuance of Senior Secured Notes in 2002 as discussed below. The Agreement includes an Overdraft Account Facility providing for aggregate borrowings up to $50 million which reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, which also reduce the amount available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
95
Under the Secured Credit Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries have a total commitment of $1.6 billion provided by the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2002, the Company and its subsidiaries had unused credit of $370.4 million available under the Secured Credit Agreement.
The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is, at the Borrower's option, the Base Rate or a reserve adjusted Eurodollar rate. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility also includes a margin linked to the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Agreement. The margin is limited to ranges of 1.75% to 2.00% for Eurodollar loans and .75% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans. The interest rate on Overdraft Account loans is the Base Rate minus .50%. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2002 was 3.61%. Including the effects of cross-currency swap agreements related to Revolving Credit Facility borrowings by the Company's Australian, U.K., and Canadian subsidiaries, the weighted average interest rate was 6.74%. While no compensating balances are required by the Agreement, the Borrowers must pay a facility fee on the Revolving Credit Facility commitments of .50%.
The Agreement requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain financial ratios, and restricts the creation of liens and certain types of business activities and investments.
Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, its domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries, which have a book value of approximately $2.1 billion. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company's domestic subsidiaries and certain stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.
During January 2002, the Company issued $1.0 billion of Senior Secured Notes. The notes bear interest at 87/8% and are due February 15, 2009. The notes are guaranteed by OI Group and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of OI Group's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The Company used substantially all the net cash proceeds from the notes to reduce its outstanding term loan under the Agreement by $980 million. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees in January 2002 related to the term loan and recorded an extraordinary charge totaling $10.9 million less applicable income taxes of $4.2 million. The indenture for the note restricts among other things, the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to borrow money, make investments, create liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company issued Senior Secured Notes totaling $625 million. The notes bear interest at 83/4% and are due November 15, 2012. The notes are guaranteed by OI Group and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of OI Group's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The Company used the net cash proceeds from the notes to repay the remaining $65 million of the outstanding term loan under the Agreement and to permanently reduce its borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility of the Agreement by $367 million. The remaining $184 million of proceeds were loaned to another subsidiary of OI Group through an intercompany loan and were used to reduce the subsidiary's borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility of the Agreement. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to the term loan and the revolver and recorded an extraordinary charge of $3.2 million less applicable income taxes of $1.1 million. The indenture for the new notes has the same restrictions as the Senior Secured Notes issued in January 2002.
Annual maturities for all of the Company's long-term debt through 2007 are as follows: 2003, $30.6 million; 2004, $1,188.9 million; 2005, $52.0 million; 2006, $12.6 million; and 2007, $11.4 million.
96
Interest paid in cash aggregated $204.1 million for 2002, $180.5 million for 2001, and $117.7 million for 2000.
Fair values at December 31, 2002, of the Company's significant fixed rate debt obligations are as follows:
| Principal Amount (millions of dollars) | Indicated Market Price | Fair Value (millions of dollars) | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Senior Secured Notes: | |||||||||
8.875% | $ | 1,000.0 | 103.75 | $ | 1,037.5 | ||||
8.75% | 625.0 | 102.25 | 639.1 |
6. Guarantees of Debt The Company has guaranteed the borrowings of certain of OI Group's domestic subsidiaries totaling $666.3 million under the Agreement. This guarantee expires with the Agreement on March 31, 2004.
The Company will be obligated under the above guarantees in the event that OI Group's domestic subsidiaries cannot make required interest or principal payments under the agreement.
During the second quarter of 2001, OI Inc. sought and received consent from the holders of a majority of the principal amount of each of its six series of senior notes debentures to amend the indenture governing those securities. The amendments implement a previously announced offer by OI Group and the company to secure OI Inc.'s obligations under the indentures and the securities with a second lien on the intercompany debt and capital stock of their direct subsidiaries, including the Company. OI Group and the Company have also guaranteed OI Inc.'s obligations under the indentures.
7. Operating Leases Rent expense attributable to all operating leases was $54.7 million in 2002, $51.7 million in 2001, and $44.1 million in 2000. Minimum future rentals under operating leases are as follows: 2003, $40.3 million; 2004, $29.0 million; 2005, $20.9 million; 2006, $16.5 million; and 2007, $16.3 million; and 2008 and thereafter, $23.3 million.
8. Foreign Currency Translation Aggregate foreign currency exchange gains (losses) included in other costs and expenses were $0.4 million in 2002, $3.9 million in 2001, and $(0.4) million in 2000.
9. Derivative Instruments Under the terms of the April 2001 Secured Credit Agreement, the Company's affiliates in Australia and the United Kingdom are permitted to borrow in U.S. dollars. In order to manage the international affiliates' exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates, the Company's affiliates in Australia and the United Kingdom have entered into currency swaps for the principal portion of their initial borrowings under the Agreement and for their interest payments due under the Agreement.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's affiliate in Australia has swapped $650 million of borrowings into $1,275 million Australian dollars. This swap matures on March 31, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. The interest reset terms of the swap approximate the terms of the U.S. dollar borrowings. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Australian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to an Australian-based rate. The Company's affiliate in the United Kingdom has swapped $200 million of bank loans and intercompany borrowings into 139 million British pounds. This swap also matures on March 31, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to British pounds and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a British-based
97
rate. The Company's affiliates in Australia and in the United Kingdom have also entered in short term forward exchange contracts which effectively swap the additional intercompany and external borrowings at each of these affiliates to its local currency. These hedges swap both the interest and principal of additional borrowings in excess of the two major swap contracts mentioned above.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's Canadian affiliate has swapped $60 million of borrowings into $94.7 million Canadian dollars. This swap matures on October 1, 2003. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a Canadian-based rate.
The Company recognizes the above derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company accounts for the above swaps as fair value hedges. As such, the changes in the value of the swaps are included in other expense and are expected to substantially offset any exchange rate gains or losses on the related U.S. dollar borrowings. For 2002, the amount not offset was immaterial.
The Company also uses commodity futures contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid for natural gas and the potential volatility in earnings or cash flows from future market price movements. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market in respect to its future usage requirements. The Company generally evaluates the natural gas market for the next twelve months and continually enters into commodity futures contracts in order to have a portion of its usage requirements hedged through the next twelve months. At December 31, 2002, the Company has entered into commodity futures contracts for approximately 25% of its North American natural gas usage through the end of 2003 (approximately 6,600 MM BTUs).
The Company accounts for the above futures contracts on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as and meets the required criteria for a cash flow hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognized in current earnings.
The above futures contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2002. Hedge accounting is only applied when the derivative is deemed to be highly effective at offsetting anticipated cash flows of the hedged transactions. For hedged forecasted transactions, hedge accounting will be discontinued if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable to occur, and any previously deferred gains or losses will be recorded to earnings immediately.
At December 31, 2002, an unrealized net gain of $2.2 million, after tax of $1.2 million, related to these commodity futures contracts was included in OCI. There was no ineffectiveness recognized during 2002.
The Company's international affiliates may enter into short-term forward exchange agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These foreign currency forward exchange agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for all significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in a currency other than the affiliate's functional currency. Affiliates may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables not denominated in their functional currency. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are charged to earnings.

10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) The components of comprehensive income (loss) are: (a) net earnings (loss); (b) change in fair value of certain derivative instruments; (c) adjustment of minimum pension liabilities; and, (d) foreign currency translation adjustments. The net effect of exchange rate fluctuations generally reflects changes in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against major foreign currencies between the beginning and end of the year.
The following table lists the beginning balance, yearly activity and ending balance of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss):

11. Income Taxes Deferred income taxes reflect: (1) the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes and (2) carryovers and credits for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2002 and 2001 are as follows (certain amounts from prior year have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation):

The Company is included in OI Inc.'s consolidated tax returns. OI Inc. has net operating losses, alternative minimum tax credits, and research and development credits available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax.
At December 31, 2002, the Company's equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $841.5 million. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be payable should these earnings be distributed.
12. Related Party Transactions Charges for administrative services are allocated to the Company by OI Inc. based on an annual utilization level. Such services include compensation and benefits administration, payroll processing, use of certain general accounting systems, auditing, income tax planning and compliance, and treasury services. Management believes that such transactions are on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties. The following information summarizes the Company's significant related party transactions:

Intercompany interest is charged to the Company from OI Inc. based on intercompany debt balances. An interest rate is calculated monthly based on OI Inc's total consolidated monthly external debt balance and the related interest expense, including finance fee amortization and commitment fees. The calculated rate is applied monthly to the intercompany debt balance to determine intercompany interest expense.
13. Pension Benefit Plans The Company participates in OI Inc.'s defined benefit pension plans for substantially all employees located in the United States. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. OI Inc.'s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. Independent actuaries determine pension costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc. included in the plans; however, accumulated benefit obligation information and plan assets pertaining to each subsidiary have not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated benefit obligation and the plan assets related to the pension plans for domestic employees have been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. Net credits to results of operations for the Company's allocated portion of the domestic pension costs amounted to $71.2 million in 2002, $77.1 million in 2001, and $82.9 million in 2000.
On October 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc. As part of the transaction, the Company assumed certain of the pension liabilities of Consumers Packaging. The information below includes the activity of these pension plans from October 1, 2001.
The Company's subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada also have pension plans covering substantially all employees. The following tables relate to the Company's principal defined benefit pension plans in the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada (the International Pension Plans).

For the International Pension Plans, the actuarial present value of benefit obligations is based on a weighted discount rate of approximately 5.75% for 2002 and 6.00% for 2001. Future benefits are assumed to increase in a manner consistent with past experience of the plans, which, to the extent benefits are based on compensation, includes assumed salary increases on a weighted scale of approximately 3.75% for 2002 and 4.00% for 2001. The expected weighted long-term rate of return on assets was approximately 8.00% for 2002, 8.50% for 2001, and 7.75% for 2000. Amortization included in net pension credits is based on the average remaining service of employees. Plan assets include marketable equity securities, government and corporate debt securities, real estate and commingled funds.
The Company recognized a minimum pension liability for the pension plan in the United Kingdom that is equal to the difference between the accumulated benefit obligation over plan assets in excess of accrued pension cost. In addition to eliminating the prepaid pension asset, an intangible asset and a reduction of equity were recognized. Pursuant to this requirement, the Company recorded, as of December 31, 2002 a minimum pension liability $92.2 million, an intangible asset of $12.1 million, and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $130.7 million.
OI Inc. also sponsors several defined contribution plans for all salaried and hourly U.S. employees of the Company. Participation is voluntary and participants' contributions are based on their compensation. OI Inc. matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. OI Inc. charges the Company for its share of the match. The Company's share of the
104
contributions to these plans amounted to $4.9 million in 2002, $4.8 million in 2001, and $5.6 million in 2000.
14. Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions OI Inc. provides certain retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering substantially all U.S. salaried and certain hourly employees. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Independent actuaries determine postretirement benefit costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc.; however, accumulated postretirement benefit obligation information pertaining to each subsidiary has not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation has been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc.
The Company's net periodic postretirement benefit cost, as allocated by OI Inc., for domestic employees was $11.8 million, $12.0 million, and $11.3 million at December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.
On October 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc. The information below includes the activity of the related Canadian retiree health care plan from October 1, 2001.

Assumed health care cost inflation was based on a rate of 8.50% in 2002, declining to an ultimate rate of 5.50%. A one percentage point decrease in the rate would have decreased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2002 by $5.1 million and decreased the net postretirement benefit cost for 2002 by $0.3 million. A one percentage point increase in the rate would have increased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2002 by $6.0 million and increased the net postretirement benefit cost for 2002 by $0.4 million. The assumed weighted average discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 6.50% at December 31, 2002.
Benefits provided by OI Inc. for certain of the hourly retirees of the Company are determined by collective bargaining. Most other domestic hourly retirees receive health and life insurance benefits from a multiemployer trust established by collective bargaining. Payments to the trust as required by the bargaining agreements are based upon specified amounts per hour worked and were $6.2 million in 2002, $6.3 million in 2001, and $7.5 million in 2000. Postretirement health and life benefits for retirees of foreign affiliates are generally provided through the national health care programs of the countries in which the affiliates are located.
15. Other Revenue Other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes $10.3 million from the sale of a minerals business in Australia.
16. Other Costs and Expenses Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 include pretax charges of $96.2 million related to the following:
- •
- Impairment charges of $25.2 million to write down the majority of the long-lived assets at the Company's glass container facility in Puerto Rico. While the Company intends to continue to operate this facility, an analysis of cash flows indicated that the long-lived assets, including buildings, furnaces and factory equipment, were impaired.
- •
- Impairment charges of $16.5 million to substantially write off buildings, furnaces and factory equipment related to the permanent closing of a glass container facility in Venezuela.
- •
- Impairment charges of $19.0 million at various other international and domestic facilities in response to decisions about pricing and market strategy. These charges related to the permanent closing of the flat glass facility in Venezuela and the abandonment of certain equipment at various locations.
- •
- Other costs of $4.5 million related to closing facilities and reducing workforce. The total workforce reductions involved approximately 220 employees at a cost of approximately $4.0 million, of which substantially all had been paid out at December 31, 2002.
- •
- A charge of $31.0 million related to the loss on the sale of the Company's facilities in India.
Actions related to the restructuring and impairment charges were substantially completed during 2002.
106
Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 include charges of $186.0 million principally related to a restructuring and capacity realignment program. The program, initiated in the third quarter of 2000, includes the consolidation of manufacturing capacity and a reduction of 175 employees in the U.S. salaried work force, or about 15%, principally as a result of early retirement incentives. Also included in the program are a write-down of plant and equipment for the Company's glass container affiliate in India and certain other asset write-offs. Charges for manufacturing capacity consolidations of $120.4 million principally involve U.S. glass container facilities and reflect technology-driven improvements in productivity, conversions of some juice and similar products to plastic containers, Company and customer decisions regarding pricing and volume, and the further concentration of production in the most strategically-located facilities. The Company expects that it will continue to make cash payments over the next several quarters for benefits and on-going closing costs related to the closing of these facilities.
As a result of reducing the U.S. salaried workforce in 2000, the Company recognized a settlement gain of approximately $24 million related to its defined benefit pension plan. This gain has been included in the net charge of $22.0 million for early retirement incentives and special termination benefits.
The 2000 pretax charge of $40.0 million was related to the write-down of property, plant, and equipment in India. Based on the Company's expectation of future net cash flows of its affiliate in India, the related property, plant, and equipment was written down to realizable values in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."

OWENS-BROCKWAY GLASS CONTAINER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular Data in millions of dollars)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. ("Company") include the accounts of its subsidiaries. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. Prior to December 2000, substantially all of the Company's consolidated foreign subsidiaries reported their results of operations on a one-month lag, which allowed additional time to compile the results. Beginning in December 2000, the one-month lag was eliminated. As a result, the December 2000 results of operations for these subsidiaries, which amounted to a net loss of $25.0 million, were recorded directly to net Parent investment in December 2000. Earnings of most of these subsidiaries for the month of December are typically lower than most other months due to customer and factory holidays, fewer shipping days, and extended maintenance activity. The loss in December 2000 was greater than recent December periods as a result of lower than normal shipments for the month, lower selling prices due to product mix and currency exchange rates, high energy costs, and increased furnace repair work at several facilities.
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost.
Relationship with Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc., Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. and Owens-Illinois, Inc. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc. ("OB Packaging"), and an indirect subsidiary of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. ("OI Group") and Owens-Illinois, Inc. ("OI Inc."). Although OI Inc. does not conduct any operations, it has substantial obligations related to outstanding indebtedness, dividends for preferred stock and asbestos-related payments. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries to meet these obligations.
For federal and certain state income tax purposes, the taxable income of the Company is included in the consolidated tax returns of OI Inc. and income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns.
Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass container products. The Company's principal product lines in the Glass Containers product segment are glass containers for the food and beverage industries. The Company has glass container operations located in 19 countries. The principal markets and operations for the Company's glass products are in North America, Europe, South America, and Australia. One customer accounted for 12.8%, 11.5%, and 10.9% of the Company's sales in 2002, 2001, and 2000 respectively.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly.
Cash The Company defines "cash" as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable.
117
Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts reported for cash, short-term investments and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates. Fair values for the Company's significant fixed rate debt obligations are generally based on published market quotations. Derivative financial instruments are included on the balance sheet at fair value.
Inventory Valuation The Company values most U.S. inventories at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market. Other inventories are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs) or market.
Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. Through December 31, 2001, goodwill was being amortized over 40 years. In accordance with FAS No. 142 (as described in "New Accounting Standards"), goodwill is no longer being amortized, but is being evaluated annually, as of October 1, for impairment or more frequently if an impairment indicator exists.
Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. The Company evaluates the recoverability of amortizable intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that an impairment may exist. If an impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value.
Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded.
Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with manufacturing, shipping, and delivery costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes on Undistributed Earnings In general, the Company plans to continue to reinvest the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and foreign corporate joint ventures accounted for by the equity method. Accordingly, taxes are provided only on that amount of undistributed earnings in excess of planned reinvestments.
Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of most affiliates and associates are translated at current exchange rates and any related translation adjustments are recorded directly in net Parent investment. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company's affiliates located in Venezuela operated in a "highly inflationary" economy. Therefore, certain assets of these affiliates were translated at historical exchange rates and all translation adjustments were reflected in the statements of Consolidated Results of Operations. During 2002, the affiliates in Venezuela were no longer considered operating in a "highly inflationary" economy. Assets and liabilities will be translated at current exchange rates with any related translation adjustments being recorded directly to net Parent investment.
118
Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management's judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management's evaluation of business risk.
Participation in OI Inc. Stock Option Plans The Company participates in the stock option plans of OI Inc. under which employees of the Company may be granted options to purchase common shares of OI Inc. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, subject to certain accelerated exercisability provisions, 50% of the options become exercisable on the fifth anniversary of the date of the option grant, with the remaining 50% becoming exercisable on the sixth anniversary date of the option grant. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the day after the tenth anniversary date of the option grant.
All options have been granted at prices equal to the market price of OI Inc.'s common stock on the date granted. Accordingly, the Company recognizes no compensation expense related to the stock option plans. OI Inc. has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."
A substantial number of the options have been granted to key employees of another subsidiary of OI Inc., some of whose compensation costs are included in an allocation of costs to all operating subsidiaries of OI Inc., including the Company. It is not practical to determine an amount of additional compensation allocable to the Company if OI Inc. had elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as allowed by FAS No. 123.
New Accounting Standards
FAS No. 142. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". As required by FAS No. 142, the Company is no longer amortizing goodwill, but will be reviewing goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment.
During the first quarter of 2002, the Company completed an impairment test under FAS No. 142 using the business enterprise value ("BEV") of each reporting unit. BEVs were calculated as of the measurement date, January 1, 2002, by determining the present value of debt-free, after-tax future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third party buyer. The BEV of each reporting unit was then compared to the book value of each reporting unit as of the measurement date to assess whether an impairment existed under FAS No. 142. Although the Company is principally a manufacturer of glass container products, it does own certain small entities which are part of OI Inc.'s consumer plastic products reporting unit. The Company determined that an impairment existed in the consumer plastic products reporting unit, which operates in a highly competitive and fragmented industry. Excess capacity in this industry had created downward pricing pressure. OI Inc. lowered its earnings and cash flow projections for this unit for several years following the measurement date which resulted in a lower BEV. Following a review of the valuation of the assets of the consumer plastic products reporting unit, the Company has recorded an impairment charge of
119
$47.0 million. As required by FAS No. 142, the transitional impairment loss has been recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting.
The following earnings for 2001 and 2000 have been presented on an adjusted basis to eliminate goodwill amortization $45.2 million and $47.9 million for 2001 and 2000, respectively, as required by FAS No. 142. The earnings for 2002 have been presented to provide comparative data to the 2001 and 2000 adjusted earnings.
| 2002 | 2001 | 2000 | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Earnings before extraordinary items and cumulative effect of accounting change | $ | 270.7 | $ | 114.6 | $ | 67.9 | |||
Net earnings | $ | 214.9 | $ | 114.6 | $ | 67.9 |
FAS No. 144. In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets". FAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. FAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2002. The adoption of FAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FAS No. 145. In April 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, No. 44, and No. 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections". Among other things, FAS No. 145 requires gains and losses from early extinguishment of debt to be included in income from continuing operations instead of being classified as extraordinary items as previously required by generally accepted accounting principles. FAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 and will be adopted by the Company on January 1, 2003. Any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt that was classified as an extraordinary item in periods prior to adoption must be reclassified into income from continuing operations. The adoption of FAS No. 145 will require the $8.8 million of extraordinary charges for 2002, to be reclassified to interest expense and the provision for income taxes.
FAS No. 146. In June 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". FAS No. 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities be recognized when the liability is incurred. The statement further requires that fair value be used for initial measurement of the liability. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company believes that the adoption of FAS No. 146 will not have a material impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FIN No. 45. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". The interpretation's disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has complied with the disclosure requirements of FIN 45 for the guarantees issued by its subsidiaries guaranteeing the debt of other subsidiaries.

Operating supplies | 51.2 | 44.4 | ||||
$ | 657.7 | $ | 611.0 | |||
If the inventories which are valued on the LIFO method had been valued at standard costs, which approximate current costs, consolidated inventories would be higher than reported by $14.5 million and $14.7 million, at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Inventories which are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs), or market at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were approximately $504.2 million and $465.9 million, respectively.

In April 2001, OI Group and certain of its subsidiaries, including the Company and certain of its foreign subsidiaries (the "Borrowers") entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") with a group of banks, which expires on March 31, 2004. The Agreement provides for a $2.4 billion ($3.0 billion initially) revolving credit facility. The Agreement also initially provided for a $1.5 billion term loan which was repaid with the proceeds from the 2001 sale of OI Group's Harbor Capital Advisors business and the issuance of Senior Secured Notes in 2002 as discussed below. The Agreement includes an Overdraft Account Facility providing for aggregate borrowings up to $50 million which reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, which also reduce the amount available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
122
Under the Secured Credit Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries have a total commitment of $1.6 billion provided by the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2002, the Company and its subsidiaries had unused credit of $370.4 million available under the Secured Credit Agreement.
The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is, at the Borrower's option, the Base Rate or a reserve adjusted Eurodollar rate. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility also includes a margin linked to the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Agreement. The margin is limited to ranges of 1.75% to 2.00% for Eurodollar loans and .75% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans. The interest rate on Overdraft Account loans is the Base Rate minus .50%. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2002 was 3.61%. Including the effects of cross-currency swap agreements related to Revolving Credit Facility borrowings by the Company's Australian, U.K., and Canadian subsidiaries, the weighted average interest rate was 6.74%. While no compensating balances are required by the Agreement, the Borrowers must pay a facility fee on the Revolving Credit Facility commitments of .50%.
The Agreement requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain financial ratios, and restricts the creation of liens and certain types of business activities and investments.
Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, its domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries, which have a book value of approximately $2.1 billion. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company's domestic subsidiaries and certain stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.
During January 2002, the Company issued $1.0 billion of Senior Secured Notes. The notes bear interest at 87/8% and are due February 15, 2009. The notes are guaranteed by OI Group and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of OI Group's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The Company used substantially all the net cash proceeds from the notes to reduce its outstanding term loan under the Agreement by $980 million. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees in January 2002 related to the term loan and recorded an extraordinary charge totaling $10.9 million less applicable income taxes of $4.2 million. The indenture for the note restricts among other things, the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to borrow money, make investments, create liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company issued Senior Secured Notes totaling $625 million. The notes bear interest at 83/4% and are due November 15, 2012. The notes are guaranteed by OI Group and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of OI Group's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The Company used the net cash proceeds from the notes to repay the remaining $65 million of the outstanding term loan under the Agreement and to permanently reduce its borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility of the Agreement by $367 million. The remaining $184 million of proceeds were loaned to another subsidiary of OI Group through an intercompany loan and were used to reduce the subsidiary's borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility of the Agreement. As a result, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to the term loan and the revolver and recorded an extraordinary charge of $3.2 million less applicable income taxes of $1.1 million. The indenture for the new notes has the same restrictions as the Senior Secured Notes issued in January 2002.
Annual maturities for all of the Company's long-term debt through 2007 are as follows: 2003, $30.6 million; 2004, $1,188.9 million; 2005, $52.0 million; 2006, $12.6 million; and 2007, $11.4 million.
123
Interest paid in cash aggregated $204.1 million for 2002, $180.5 million for 2001, and $117.7 million for 2000.
Fair values at December 31, 2002, of the Company's significant fixed rate debt obligations are as follows:
| Principal Amount (millions of dollars) | Indicated Market Price | Fair Value (millions of dollars) | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Senior Secured Notes: | |||||||||
8.875% | $ | 1,000.0 | 103.75 | $ | 1,037.5 | ||||
8.75% | 625.0 | 102.25 | 639.1 |
6. Guarantees of Debt The Company has guaranteed the borrowings of certain of OI Inc.'s domestic subsidiaries totaling $666.3 million under the Agreement. This guarantee expires with the Agreement on March 31, 2004.
The Company will be obligated under the above guarantees in the event that OI Inc.'s domestic subsidiaries cannot make required interest or principal payments under the agreement.
7. Operating Leases Rent expense attributable to all operating leases was $54.7 million in 2002, $51.7 million in 2001, and $44.1 million in 2000. Minimum future rentals under operating leases are as follows: 2003, $40.3 million; 2004, $29.0 million; 2005, $20.9 million; 2006, $16.5 million; and 2007, $16.3 million; and 2008 and thereafter, $23.3 million.
8. Foreign Currency Translation Aggregate foreign currency exchange gains (losses) included in other costs and expenses were $0.4 million in 2002, $3.9 million in 2001, and $(0.4) million in 2000.
9. Derivative Instruments Under the terms of the April 2001 Secured Credit Agreement, the Company's affiliates in Australia and the United Kingdom are permitted to borrow in U.S. dollars. In order to manage the international affiliates' exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates, the Company's affiliates in Australia and the United Kingdom have entered into currency swaps for the principal portion of their initial borrowings under the Agreement and for their interest payments due under the Agreement.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's affiliate in Australia has swapped $650 million of borrowings into $1,275 million Australian dollars. This swap matures on March 31, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. The interest reset terms of the swap approximate the terms of the U.S. dollar borrowings. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Australian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to an Australian-based rate. The Company's affiliate in the United Kingdom has swapped $200 million of bank loans and intercompany borrowings into 139 million British pounds. This swap also matures on March 31, 2003, with interest resets every 90 days. This derivative instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to British pounds and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a British-based rate. The Company's affiliates in Australia and in the United Kingdom have also entered in short term forward exchange contracts which effectively swap the additional intercompany and external borrowings at each of these affiliates to its local currency. These hedges swap both the interest and principal of additional borrowings in excess of the two major swap contracts mentioned above.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company's Canadian affiliate has swapped $60 million of borrowings into $94.7 million Canadian dollars. This swap matures on October 1, 2003. This derivative

instrument swaps both the interest and principal from U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars and also swaps the interest rate from a U.S.-based rate to a Canadian-based rate.
The Company recognizes the above derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company accounts for the above swaps as fair value hedges. As such, the changes in the value of the swaps are included in other expense and are expected to substantially offset any exchange rate gains or losses on the related U.S. dollar borrowings. For 2002, the amount not offset was immaterial.
The Company also uses commodity futures contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid for natural gas and the potential volatility in earnings or cash flows from future market price movements. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market in respect to its future usage requirements. The Company generally evaluates the natural gas market for the next twelve months and continually enters into commodity futures contracts in order to have a portion of its usage requirements hedged through the next twelve months. At December 31, 2002, the Company has entered into commodity futures contracts for approximately 25% of its North American natural gas usage through the end of 2003 (approximately 6,600 MM BTUs).
The Company accounts for the above futures contracts on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as and meets the required criteria for a cash flow hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognized in current earnings.
The above futures contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2002. Hedge accounting is only applied when the derivative is deemed to be highly effective at offsetting anticipated cash flows of the hedged transactions. For hedged forecasted transactions, hedge accounting will be discontinued if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable to occur, and any previously deferred gains or losses will be recorded to earnings immediately.
At December 31, 2002, an unrealized net gain of $2.2 million, after tax of $1.2 million, related to these commodity futures contracts was included in OCI. There was no ineffectiveness recognized during 2002.
The Company's international affiliates may enter into short-term forward exchange agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These foreign currency forward exchange agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for all significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in a currency other than the affiliate's functional currency. Affiliates may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables not denominated in their functional currency. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are charged to earnings.
10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) The components of comprehensive income (loss) are: (a) net earnings (loss); (b) change in fair value of certain derivative instruments; (c) adjustment of minimum pension liabilities; and, (d) foreign currency translation adjustments. The net effect of exchange rate fluctuations generally reflects changes in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against major foreign currencies between the beginning and end of the year.

The Company is included in OI Inc.'s consolidated tax returns. OI Inc. has net operating losses, alternative minimum tax credits, and research and development credits available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax.
At December 31, 2002, the Company's equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $841.5 million. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be payable should these earnings be distributed.
12. Related Party Transactions Charges for administrative services are allocated to the Company by OI Inc. based on an annual utilization level. Such services include compensation and benefits administration, payroll processing, use of certain general accounting systems, auditing, income tax planning and compliance, and treasury services. Management believes that such transactions are on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

Intercompany interest is charged to the Company from OI Inc. based on intercompany debt balances. An interest rate is calculated monthly based on OI Inc's total consolidated monthly external debt balance and the related interest expense, including finance fee amortization and commitment fees. The calculated rate is applied monthly to the intercompany debt balance to determine intercompany interest expense.
13. Pension Benefit Plans The Company participates in OI Inc.'s defined benefit pension plans for substantially all employees located in the United States. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. OI Inc.'s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. Independent actuaries determine pension costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc. included in the plans; however, accumulated benefit obligation information and plan assets pertaining to each subsidiary have not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated benefit obligation and the plan assets related to the pension plans for domestic employees have been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. Net credits to results of operations for the Company's allocated portion of the domestic pension costs amounted to $71.2 million in 2002, $77.1 million in 2001, and $82.9 million in 2000.
On October 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc. As part of the transaction, the Company assumed certain of the pension liabilities of Consumers Packaging. The information below includes the activity of these pension plans from October 1, 2001.
The Company's subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada also have pension plans covering substantially all employees. The following tables relate to the Company's principal defined benefit pension plans in the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada (the International Pension Plans).

For the International Pension Plans, the actuarial present value of benefit obligations is based on a weighted discount rate of approximately 5.75% for 2002 and 6.00% for 2001. Future benefits are assumed to increase in a manner consistent with past experience of the plans, which, to the extent benefits are based on compensation, includes assumed salary increases on a weighted scale of approximately 3.75% for 2002 and 4.00% for 2001. The expected weighted long-term rate of return on assets was approximately 8.00% for 2002, 8.50% for 2001, and 7.75% for 2000. Amortization included in net pension credits is based on the average remaining service of employees. Plan assets include marketable equity securities, government and corporate debt securities, real estate and commingled funds.
The Company recognized a minimum pension liability for the pension plan in the United Kingdom that is equal to the difference between the accumulated benefit obligation over plan assets in excess of accrued pension cost. In addition to eliminating the prepaid pension asset, an intangible asset and a reduction of equity were recognized. Pursuant to this requirement, the Company recorded, as of December 31, 2002 a minimum pension liability $92.2 million, an intangible asset of $12.1 million, and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $130.7 million.
OI Inc. also sponsors several defined contribution plans for all salaried and hourly U.S. employees of the Company. Participation is voluntary and participants' contributions are based on their compensation. OI Inc. matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. OI Inc. charges the Company for its share of the match. The Company's share of the
131
contributions to these plans amounted to $4.9 million in 2002, $4.8 million in 2001, and $5.6 million in 2000.
14. Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions OI Inc. provides certain retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering substantially all U.S. salaried and certain hourly employees. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Independent actuaries determine postretirement benefit costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc.; however, accumulated postretirement benefit obligation information pertaining to each subsidiary has not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation has been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc.
The Company's net periodic postretirement benefit cost, as allocated by OI Inc., for domestic employees was $11.8 million, $12.0 million, and $11.3 million at December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.
On October 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Canadian glass container assets of Consumers Packaging Inc. The information below includes the activity of the related Canadian retiree health care plan from October 1, 2001.

Assumed health care cost inflation was based on a rate of 8.50% in 2002, declining to an ultimate rate of 5.50%. A one percentage point decrease in the rate would have decreased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2002 by $5.1 million and decreased the net postretirement benefit cost for 2002 by $0.3 million. A one percentage point increase in the rate would have increased the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2002 by $6.0 million and increased the net postretirement benefit cost for 2002 by $0.4 million. The assumed weighted average discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 6.50% at December 31, 2002.
Benefits provided by OI Inc. for certain of the hourly retirees of the Company are determined by collective bargaining. Most other domestic hourly retirees receive health and life insurance benefits from a multiemployer trust established by collective bargaining. Payments to the trust as required by the bargaining agreements are based upon specified amounts per hour worked and were $6.2 million in 2002, $6.3 million in 2001, and $7.5 million in 2000. Postretirement health and life benefits for retirees of foreign affiliates are generally provided through the national health care programs of the countries in which the affiliates are located.
15. Other Revenue Other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes $10.3 million from the sale of a minerals business in Australia.
16. Other Costs and Expenses Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 include pretax charges of $96.2 million related to the following:
- •
- Impairment charges of $25.2 million to write down the majority of the long-lived assets at the Company's glass container facility in Puerto Rico. While the Company intends to continue to operate this facility, an analysis of cash flows indicated that the long-lived assets, including buildings, furnaces and factory equipment, were impaired.
- •
- Impairment charges of $16.5 million to substantially write off buildings, furnaces and factory equipment related to the permanent closing of a glass container facility in Venezuela.
- •
- Impairment charges of $19.0 million at various other international and domestic facilities in response to decisions about pricing and market strategy. These charges related to the permanent closing of the flat glass facility in Venezuela and the abandonment of certain equipment at various locations.
- •
- Other costs of $4.5 million related to closing facilities and reducing workforce. The total workforce reductions involved approximately 220 employees at a cost of approximately $4.0 million, of which substantially all had been paid out at December 31, 2002.
- •
- A charge of $31.0 million related to the loss on the sale of the Company's facilities in India.
133
Actions related to the restructuring and impairment charges were substantially completed during 2002.
Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 include charges of $186.0 million principally related to a restructuring and capacity realignment program. The program, initiated in the third quarter of 2000, includes the consolidation of manufacturing capacity and a reduction of 175 employees in the U.S. salaried work force, or about 15%, principally as a result of early retirement incentives. Also included in the program are a write-down of plant and equipment for the Company's glass container affiliate in India and certain other asset write-offs. Charges for manufacturing capacity consolidations of $120.4 million principally involve U.S. glass container facilities and reflect technology-driven improvements in productivity, conversions of some juice and similar products to plastic containers, Company and customer decisions regarding pricing and volume, and the further concentration of production in the most strategically-located facilities. The Company expects that it will continue to make cash payments over the next several quarters for benefits and on-going closing costs related to the closing of these facilities.
As a result of reducing the U.S. salaried workforce in 2000, the Company recognized a settlement gain of approximately $24 million related to its defined benefit pension plan. This gain has been included in the net charge of $22.0 million for early retirement incentives and special termination benefits.
The 2000 pretax charge of $40.0 million was related to the write-down of property, plant, and equipment in India. Based on the Company's expectation of future net cash flows of its affiliate in India, the related property, plant, and equipment was written down to realizable values in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."

OI PLASTIC PRODUCTS FTS INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular Data in millions of dollars)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of OI Plastic Products FTS Inc. ("Company") include the accounts of its subsidiaries. During January 2002, OI Closure FTS, Inc, another subsidiary of Owens-Illinois Inc., was merged into the Company. Since both entities were under common control of Owens-Illinois Inc., the consolidated statement of operations, net Parent investment, and cash flows for each of the three years ended December 31, 2002 and the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2002 and 2001 include OI Closure FTS, Inc. for all periods at historical cost. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. Prior to December 2000, substantially all of the Company's consolidated foreign subsidiaries reported their results of operations on a one-month lag, which allowed additional time to compile the results. Beginning in December 2000, the one-month lag was eliminated. As a result, the December 2000 results of operations for these subsidiaries, which amounted to a net loss of $1.8 million, were recorded directly to net Parent investment in December 2000. Earnings of most of these subsidiaries for the month of December are typically lower than most other months due to customer and factory holidays, fewer shipping days, and extended maintenance activity. The loss in December 2000 was greater than recent December periods as a result of lower than normal shipments for the month, lower selling prices due to product mix and currency exchange rates, and high energy costs.
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost.
Relationship with Owens-Illinois, Inc. and Owens-Illinois, Group Inc. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. ("OI Group") and an indirect subsidiary of Owens-Illinois, Inc. ("OI Inc."). Although OI Inc. does not conduct any operations, it has substantial obligations related to outstanding indebtedness, dividends for preferred stock and asbestos-related payments. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries to meet these obligations.
For federal and certain state income tax purposes, the taxable income of the Company is included in the consolidated tax returns of OI Inc. and income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns. Current income taxes are recorded by the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns.
Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of plastics packaging products. The Company's principal product lines are consumer products (blow molded containers, injection molded closures and dispensing systems) and prescription containers. The Company's principal operations are in North America, however, the Company does have minor operations in Europe and South America. Major markets include the United States household products, personal care products, health care products, and food and beverage industries. One customer accounted for 17.5%, 18.0%, and 13.0% of the Company's sales in 2002, 2001, and 2000 respectively.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly.
144
Cash The Company defines "cash" as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts reported for cash, short-term investments and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates. The Company is not a party to any material derivative financial instruments.
Inventory Valuation The Company values most U.S. inventories at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market. Other inventories are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs) or market.
Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. Through December 31, 2001, goodwill was being amortized over 40 years. In accordance with FAS No. 142 (as described in "New Accounting Standards"), goodwill is no longer being amortized, but is being evaluated annually, as of October 1, for impairment or more frequently if an impairment indicator exists.
Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. The Company evaluates the recoverability of amortizable intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that an impairment may exist. If an impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value.
Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded.
Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with manufacturing, shipping, and delivery costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes on Undistributed Earnings In general, the Company plans to continue to reinvest the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and foreign corporate joint ventures accounted for by the equity method. Accordingly, taxes are provided only on that amount of undistributed earnings in excess of planned reinvestments.
Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of most affiliates and associates are translated at current exchange rates and any related translation adjustments are recorded directly in net Parent investment.
Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected.
145
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management's judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management's evaluation of business risk.
Participation in OI Inc. Stock Option Plans The Company participates in the stock option plans of OI Inc. under which employees of the Company may be granted options to purchase common shares of OI Inc. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, subject to certain accelerated exercisability provisions, 50% of the options become exercisable on the fifth anniversary of the date of the option grant, with the remaining 50% becoming exercisable on the sixth anniversary date of the option grant. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the day after the tenth anniversary date of the option grant.
All options have been granted at prices equal to the market price of OI Inc.'s common stock on the date granted. Accordingly, the Company recognizes no compensation expense related to the stock option plans. OI Inc. has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."
A substantial number of the options have been granted to key employees of another subsidiary of OI Inc., some of whose compensation costs are included in an allocation of costs to all operating subsidiaries of OI Inc., including the Company. It is not practical to determine an amount of additional compensation allocable to the Company if OI Inc. had elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as allowed by FAS No. 123.
New Accounting Standards
FAS No. 142. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". As required by FAS No. 142, the Company is no longer amortizing goodwill, but will be reviewing goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment.
During the first quarter of 2002, the Company completed an impairment test under FAS No. 142 using the business enterprise value ("BEV") of each reporting unit. BEVs were calculated as of the measurement date, January 1, 2002, by determining the present value of debt-free, after-tax future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third party buyer. The BEV of each reporting unit was then compared to the book value of each reporting unit as of the measurement date to assess whether an impairment existed under FAS No. 142. Based on this comparison, the Company determined that an impairment existed in its consumer products reporting unit. The consumer products reporting unit operates in a highly competitive and fragmented industry. Excess capacity in this industry had created downward pricing pressure. The Company lowered its earnings and cash flow projections for this unit for several years following the measurement date which resulted in a lower BEV. Following a review of the valuation of the assets of the consumer products reporting unit, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $413.0 million to reduce the reported value of its goodwill. As required by FAS No. 142, the transitional impairment loss has been recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in method of accounting.
The following earnings data for 2001 and 2000 have been presented on an adjusted basis to eliminate goodwill amortization of $47.1 and $47.0 million for 2001 and 2000, respectively as required
146
by FAS No. 142. The earnings data for 2002 have been presented to provide comparative data to the 2001 and 2000 adjusted earnings.
| 2002 (Actual) | 2001 (Adjusted) | 2000 (Adjusted) | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Earnings before extraordinary items and cumulative effect of accounting change | $ | 113.0 | $ | 95.2 | $ | 103.7 | |||
Net (loss) earnings | $ | (300.8 | ) | $ | 95.2 | $ | 103.7 |
FAS No. 144. In August 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets". FAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. FAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2002. The adoption of FAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FAS No. 145. In April 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, No. 44, and No. 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections". Among other things, FAS No. 145 requires gains and losses from early extinguishment of debt to be included in income from continuing operations instead of being classified as extraordinary items as previously required by generally accepted accounting principles. FAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 and will be adopted by the Company on January 1, 2003. Any gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt that was classified as an extraordinary item in periods prior to adoption must be reclassified into income from continuing operations. The adoption of FAS No. 145 will require the $0.8 million of extraordinary charges for 2002 to be reclassified to interest expense and the provision for income taxes.
FAS No. 146. In June 2002, the FASB issued FAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". FAS No. 146 requires that a liability for costs associated with exit or disposal activities be recognized when the liability is incurred. The statement further requires that fair value be used for initial measurement of the liability. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company believes that the adoption of FAS No. 146 will not have a material impact on the reported results of operations or financial position of the Company.
FIN No. 45. In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others". The interpretation's disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has complied with the disclosure requirements of FIN 45 for the guarantees issued by its subsidiaries guaranteeing the debt of other subsidiaries.

3. Inventories Major classes of inventory are as follows:
| 2002 | 2001 | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Finished goods | $ | 144.6 | $ | 133.7 | ||
Work in process | 0.6 | 0.3 | ||||
Raw materials | 73.1 | 71.7 | ||||

$ | 234.2 | $ | 222.9 | |||
If the inventories which are valued on the LIFO method had been valued at standard costs, which approximate current costs, consolidated inventories would be higher than reported by $3.2 million and $5.2 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Inventories which are valued at the lower of standard costs (which approximate average costs), or market at December 31, 2002 and 2001 were approximately $27.5 million and $34.0 million, respectively.
4. External Long-Term Debt The following table summarizes the external long-term debt of the Company at December 31, 2002 and 2001:
| December 31, | |||||||

External long-term debt | $ | 667.3 | $ | 851.3 | ||||
In April 2001, OI Group and certain of its subsidiaries, including the Company (the "Borrowers") entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") with a group of banks, which expires on
148
March 31, 2004. The Agreement provides for a $2.4 billion ($3.0 billion initially) revolving credit facility. The Agreement also initially provided for a $1.5 billion term loan which was repaid with the proceeds from the 2001 sale of OI Group's Harbor Capital Advisors business and the issuance of Senior Secured Notes issued in 2002 by another subsidiary of OI Group. The Agreement includes an Overdraft Account Facility providing for aggregate borrowings up to $50 million which reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, which also reduce the amount available for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
Under the Secured Credit Agreement, the Company has a total commitment of $816.8 million provided by the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2002, the Company had unused credit of $150.5 million available under the Secured Credit Agreement.
The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is, at the Borrower's option, the Base Rate or a reserve adjusted Eurodollar rate. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility also includes a margin linked to OI Inc.'s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Agreement. The margin is limited to ranges of 1.75% to 2.00% for Eurodollar loans and .75% to 1.00% for Base Rate loans. The interest rate on Overdraft Account loans is the Base Rate minus .50%. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2002 was 3.44%. While no compensating balances are required by the Agreement, the Borrowers must pay a facility fee on the Revolving Credit Facility commitments of .50%.
Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.
The Agreement requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain financial ratios, and restricts the creation of liens and certain types of business activities and investments.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, another indirect subsidiary of OI Group issued Senior Secured Notes totaling $625 million. The notes bear interest at 83/4% and are due November 15, 2012. The notes are guaranteed by substantially all of OI Group's domestic subsidiaries. The assets of substantially all of the OI Group's domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The issuing subsidiary used a portion of the net cash proceeds from the notes to repay an intercompany loan from OI Group, who loaned the Company $184 million which was used to reduce the Company's borrowing capacity of the revolving credit facility under the agreement. As such, the Company wrote off unamortized deferred financing fees related to the term loan and the revolver and recorded an extraordinary charge of $1.3 million less applicable income taxes of $0.5 million.
Annual maturities for all of the Company's long-term debt through 2007 are as follows: 2003, $0.1 million; 2004, $666.8 million; 2005, $0.2 million; 2006, $0.2 million; and 2007, $0.2 million.
Interest paid in cash aggregated $39.9 million for 2002, $31.7 million for 2001, and $0.9 million for 2000.
5. Guarantees of Debt The Company has guaranteed the borrowings of certain of OI Inc.'s domestic and foreign subsidiaries totaling $1,158.7 under the Agreement. This guarantee expires with the Agreement on March 31, 2004.
149
During 2002 an affiliate of the Company issued $1.0 billion of 87/8% and $625.0 million of 83/4% Senior Secured Notes. The assets of the Company and most of its domestic subsidiaries are pledged as security for the notes. The Company has guaranteed these notes. This guarantee expires in 2009 for the $1.0 billion of 87/8% and 2012 for the $625.0 million of 83/4%.
The Company will be obligated under the above guarantees in the event that OI Inc.'s domestic or foreign subsidiaries cannot make the required interest or principal payments under the above obligations.
6. Operating Leases Rent expense attributable to all operating leases was $21.7 million in 2002, $21.9 million in 2001, and $19.1 million in 2000. Minimum future rentals under operating leases are as follows: 2003, $8.6 million; 2004, $4.0 million; 2005, $1.9 million; 2006, $1.4 million; 2007, $0.9 million; and 2008 and thereafter, $2.1 million.
7. Foreign Currency Translation Aggregate foreign currency exchange gains (losses) included in other costs and expenses were $1.5 million in 2002, $(1.3) million in 2001, and $(0.7) million in 2000.
8. Income Taxes Deferred income taxes reflect: (1) the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes and (2) carryovers and credits for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2002 and 2001 are as follows:
| 2002 | 2001 | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Deferred tax assets: | |||||||||

The Company is included with OI Inc.'s consolidated tax returns. OI Inc. has net operating losses, alternative minimum tax credits, and research and development credits available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax.
At December 31, 2002, the Company's equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $24.4 million. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be payable should these earnings be distributed.
9. Related Party Transactions Charges for administrative services are allocated to the Company by OI Inc. based on an annual utilization level. Such services include compensation and benefits administration, payroll processing, use of certain general accounting systems, auditing, income tax planning and compliance, and treasury services. Management believes that such transactions are on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties. The following information summarizes the Company's significant related party transactions:
| Years ended December 31, | |||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2002 | 2001 | 2000 | |||||||
Revenues: | ||||||||||
Sales to affiliated companies | $ | 3.9 | $ | 8.2 | $ | 7.7 | ||||
Expenses: | ||||||||||
Administrative services | 15.4 | 13.2 | 15.6 | |||||||
Corporate management fee | 7.4 | 8.5 | 8.6 | |||||||
Total expenses | $ | 22.8 | $ | 21.7 | $ | 24.2 | ||||
The above expenses are recorded in the statement of operations as follows:
Cost of sales | $ | 13.6 | $ | 11.6 | $ | 13.8 | ||||
Selling, general, and adminstrative expenses | 9.2 | 10.1 | 10.4 | |||||||
Total expenses | $ | 22.8 | $ | 21.7 | $ | 24.2 | ||||
Intercompany interest is charged to the Company from OI Inc. based on intercompany debt balances. An interest rate is calculated monthly based on OI Inc's total consolidated monthly external
152
debt balance and the related interest expense, including finance fee amortization and commitment fees. The calculated rate is applied monthly to the intercompany debt balance to determine intercompany interest expense.
10. Pension Benefit Plans The Company participates in OI Inc.'s defined benefit pension plans for substantially all employees located in the United States. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. OI Inc.'s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. Independent actuaries determine pension costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc. included in the plans; however, accumulated benefit obligation information and plan assets pertaining to each subsidiary have not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated benefit obligation and the plan assets related to the pension plans for domestic employees have been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. Net credits to results of operations for the Company's allocated portion of the domestic pension costs amounted to $9.5 million in 2002, $13.6 million in 2001, and $15.1 million in 2000.
OI Inc. also sponsors several defined contribution plans for all salaried and hourly U.S. employees of the Company. Participation is voluntary and participants' contributions are based on their compensation. OI Inc. matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. OI Inc. charges the Company for its share of the match. The Company's share of the contributions to these plans amounted to $3.6 million in 2002, $3.5 million in 2001, and $3.9 million in 2000.
11. Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions OI Inc. provides certain retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering substantially all U.S. salaried and certain hourly employees. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Independent actuaries determine postretirement benefit costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc.; however, accumulated postretirement benefit obligation information pertaining to each subsidiary has not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation has been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc.
The Company's net periodic postretirement benefit cost, as allocated by OI Inc., was $1.6 million, $1.7 million, and $1.8 million at December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.
12. Other Revenue Other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes $2.8 million from the sale of the Company's label business.
13. Other Costs and Expenses Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 include pretax charges of $33.3 million related to the following:
- •
- Impairment charges of $12.0 million at various international and domestic facilities in response to decisions about pricing and market strategy. These charges related to two domestic plastics packaging facilities and the abandonment of certain equipment at various locations.
- •
- Other costs of $4.9 million related to closing facilities and reducing workforce. The total workforce reductions involved approximately 180 employees at a cost of approximately $3.5 million, of which substantially all had been paid out at December 31, 2002.
- •
- A charge of $8.5 million for certain contingencies.
- •
- A charge of $7.9 million related to restructuring manufacturing capacity in the medical devices business.
153
Actions related to the restructuring and impairment charges were substantially completed during 2002.
Other costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 include charges of $11.2 million principally related to a restructuring and capacity realignment program. The restructuring and capacity realignment program, initiated in the third quarter of 2000, includes the consolidation of manufacturing capacity and a reduction of 100 employees in the U.S. salaried work force, or about 5%, principally as a result of early retirement incentives.
As a result of the approximate 5% reduction of the U.S. salaried workforce in 2000, the Company recognized a settlement gain of approximately $8.0 million related to its defined benefit pension plan. This gain has been included in the net charge of $9.2 million for early retirement incentives and special termination benefits.
Selected information relating to restructuring accruals follows:

14. Contingencies
In April 1999, Crown Cork & Seal Technologies Corporation ("CCS") filed suit against Continental PET Technologies, Inc. ("CPT"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware alleging that certain plastic containers manufactured by CPT, primarily multi-layer PET containers with barrier properties, infringe CCS's U.S. Patent 5,021,515 relating to an oxygen-scavenging material. CCS is a party to an agreement with Chevron Philips Chemical Company ("Chevron") under which Chevron has rights to sublicense certain CCS patents, including, Chevron believed, the patent involved in the suit against CPT. To avoid the cost of litigation, CPT took a sublicense from Chevron under the patent in suit and other patents. Chevron then entered the suit to defend and assert its right to sublicense the patent in suit to CPT. In November 2002, the Delaware District Court concluded that Chevron did not have the rights it purported to sublicense to CPT.
Subject to any appeal by Chevron, the decision will allow CCS to pursue its lawsuit against CPT, which is in its initial stages and was stayed pending resolution of the Chevron claims. In the lawsuit, CCS seeks certain monetary damages and injunctive relief. At such time as the suit against CPT is reinstituted, CPT will pursue all defenses available to it. However, if the Court were to reach conclusions adverse to CPT on the claims for monetary damages asserted by CCS, the Company believes such determination would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position, and any such damages could be covered in part by third party indemnification. Additionally, an adverse decision with respect to CCS's request for injunctive relief is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company because it believes that it can pursue alternative technologies for the manufacture of multi-layer PET containers with barrier properties.
Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are nonroutine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief.
