NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

We prepare our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Except for the foreign currency implications of our subsidiary in Venezuela (“Avon Venezuela”) being considered highly inflationary, we consistently applied the accounting policies described in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2009 Form 10-K”) in preparing these unaudited financial statements. In our opinion, we made all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. You should read these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements contained in our 2009 Form 10-K. When used in these notes, the terms “Avon,” “Company,” “we” or “us” mean Avon Products, Inc.

For interim consolidated financial statement purposes, our tax provision is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. We also provide for accruals under our various employee benefit plans for each quarter based on one quarter of the estimated annual expense.

We have reclassified some immaterial amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for comparative purposes. We reclassified $8.0 and $15.1 of fees from selling, general and administrative expenses to other revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

Foreign Currency

Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries operating in other than highly inflationary economies are translated into U.S. dollars from the respective subsidiary’s functional currency at period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during the reporting period for income and expense accounts. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded within “accumulated other comprehensive loss” (“AOCI”). Gains or losses resulting from the impact of changes in foreign currency rates on assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recorded in “Other expense (income), net”.

For financial statements of Avon subsidiaries operating in highly inflationary economies, the U.S. dollar is required to be used as the functional currency. Highly inflationary accounting requires monetary assets and liabilities, such as cash, receivables and payables, to be remeasured into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate at the end of each period with the impact of any changes in exchange rates being recorded in income. We record the impact of changes in exchange rates on monetary assets and liabilities in “Other expense (income), net”. Similarly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates; however, the impact of changes in exchange rates is recorded in “Income taxes” in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities, such as inventory, property, plant and equipment and prepaid expenses are recorded in U.S. dollars at the historical rates at the time of acquisition of such assets or liabilities.

Venezuela Currency

Effective January 1, 2010, we began to account for Venezuela as a highly inflationary economy. Effective January 11, 2010, the Venezuelan government devalued its currency and moved to a two-tier exchange structure. The official exchange rate moved from 2.15 to 2.60 for essential goods and to 4.30 for nonessential goods and services. We expect most of the imports of Avon Venezuela to fall into the nonessential classification. We use the nonessentials rate of 4.30 to remeasure our Bolivar denominated assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars at the reporting date, since this is the rate expected to be available for dividend remittances. We record a loss within operating profit when we believe we are going to convert these Bolivar denominated assets or settle our U.S. dollar denominated liabilities from sources where the exchange rate is less favorable than the official rate. We record a gain within operating profit when U.S. dollar denominated liabilities are settled at the essentials rate.

As a result of the change in the official rate to 4.30 in conjunction with accounting for our operations in Venezuela under highly inflationary accounting guidelines, during the first quarter of 2010, we recorded net charges of $46.1 million in “Other expense (income), net” and $12.7 million in “income taxes”.

New Accounting Standards Implemented

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended its accounting guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIE”). Among other things, the new guidance requires a qualitative rather than a quantitative assessment to determine the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on whether the entity (1) has the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and 2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In addition, the amended guidance requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary. The provisions of this new guidance are effective January 1, 2010 for Avon and did not have any impact on our financial statements.

2. EARNINGS PER SHARE AND SHARE REPURCHASES

We compute earnings per share using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and participating securities. Our participating securities are our grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents.

At June 30, 2010 and 2009, we did not include stock options to purchase 18.1 million shares and 21.1 million shares of Avon common stock, respectively, in the calculations of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

We purchased approximately 0.4 million shares of Avon common stock for $10.8 during the first six months of 2010, as compared to approximately 0.3 million shares of Avon common stock for $6.2 during the first six months of 2009 under our previously announced share repurchase program and through acquisition of stock from employees in connection with tax payments upon vesting of restricted stock units.

We previously disclosed in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, that we expected to contribute approximately $15 to $20 and $30 to $40 to our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans, respectively, in 2010. As of June 30, 2010, we made approximately $11 and $7 of contributions to the U.S. and non-U.S pension plans, respectively. We anticipate contributing approximately $4 to $9 and $23 to $33 to fund our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans, respectively, during the remainder of 2010. Our funding requirements may be impacted by regulations or interpretations thereof.

5. CONTINGENCIES

In 2002, 2003 and 2004, our Brazilian subsidiary received a series of excise tax assessments from the Brazilian tax authorities for alleged tax deficiencies during the years 1997-2001 asserting that the establishment in 1995 of separate manufacturing and distribution companies in that country was done without a valid business purpose and that Avon Brazil did not observe minimum pricing rules to define the taxable basis of excise tax, based on purported market sales data. The structure adopted in 1995 is comparable to that used by other companies in Brazil. We believe that our Brazilian corporate structure is appropriate, both operationally and legally, and that the assessments are unfounded. This matter is being vigorously contested and in the opinion of our outside counsel the likelihood that the assessments ultimately will be upheld is remote. Management believes that the likelihood that the assessments will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows is correspondingly remote.

Our appeals of the 2003 and 2004 assessments were granted in our favor in April and May 2010, respectively, at the second administrative level. These assessments, including penalties and accruing interest, amounted to approximately $531 at the exchange rate on June 30, 2010. These decisions at the second administrative level may be appealed to a third and last administrative level. We are currently awaiting decision at the first administrative level for the remaining 2002 assessment, which, including penalties and accruing interest, amounted to approximately $81 at the exchange rate on June 30, 2010. In the event that an assessment is upheld at the third and last administrative level, it may be necessary for us to provide security to pursue further appeals, which, depending on the circumstances, may result in a charge to income. It is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the amount or range of expense that could result from an unfavorable outcome in respect of these or any additional assessments that may be issued for subsequent periods.

As previously reported, we have engaged outside counsel to conduct an internal investigation and compliance reviews focused on compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and related U.S. and foreign laws in China and additional countries. The internal investigation, which is being conducted under the oversight of our Audit Committee, began in June 2008. As we reported in October 2008, we voluntarily contacted the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice to advise both agencies of our internal investigation, and we are continuing to cooperate with both agencies and have signed tolling agreements with them.

As previously reported in July 2009, in connection with the internal investigation, we commenced compliance reviews regarding the FCPA and related U.S. and foreign laws in additional countries in order to evaluate our compliance efforts. We are conducting these compliance reviews in a number of other countries selected to represent each of the Company’s four other international geographic segments. The internal investigation and compliance reviews are focused on reviewing certain expenses and books and records processes, including, but not limited to, travel, entertainment, gifts, and payments to third-party agents and others, in connection with our business dealings, directly or indirectly, with foreign governments and their employees. The internal investigation and compliance reviews of these matters are ongoing, and we continue to cooperate with both agencies with respect to these matters. At this point we are unable to predict the duration, scope, developments in, results of, or consequences of the internal investigation and compliance reviews.

In July 2010, several derivative complaints were filed against certain present or former officers and directors of the Company that allege breach of fiduciary duty, and, in certain complaints, abuse of control, waste of corporate assets and/or unjust enrichment, relating to the Company’s compliance with the FCPA. The relief sought in one or more of the derivative complaints includes certain declaratory and equitable relief, restitution, unspecified damages, exemplary damages and interest. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. These actions includeCarol J. Parker, derivatively on behalf of Avon Products, Inc. v. W. Don Cornwell, et al. and Avon Products, Inc. as nominal defendant (filed in the New York Supreme Court, Nassau County, Index No. 600570/2010);Murray C. White, derivatively on behalf of Avon Products, Inc. v. Andrea Jung, et al. and Avon Products, Inc. as nominal defendant(filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, 10-CV-5560); andCounty of York Employees Retirement Plan, derivatively on behalf of Avon Products, Inc. v. W. Don Cornwell, et al. and Avon Products, Inc. as nominal defendant (filed in the New York Supreme Court, New York County, Index No. 651065/2010). We are unable to predict the outcome of these matters.

Various other lawsuits and claims, arising in the ordinary course of business or related to businesses previously sold, are pending or threatened against Avon. In management’s opinion, based on its review of the information available at this time, the total cost of resolving such other contingencies at June 30, 2010, should not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

9. RESTRUCTURING INITIATIVES

2005 Restructuring Program

In November 2005, we announced a multi-year turnaround plan to restore sustainable growth. As part of our turnaround plan, we launched a restructuring program in late 2005 (the “2005 Restructuring Program”). Restructuring initiatives under this program include:

• enhancement of organizational effectiveness, including efforts to flatten the organization and bring senior management closer to consumers through a substantial organization downsizing;

• implementation of a global manufacturing strategy through facilities realignment;

• implementation of additional supply chain efficiencies in distribution; and

• streamlining of transactional and other services through outsourcing and moves to lower-cost countries.

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

We have approved and announced all of the initiatives that are part of our 2005 Restructuring Program. We expect to record total restructuring charges and other costs to implement restructuring initiatives of approximately $530 before taxes. We have recorded total costs to implement, net of adjustments, of $526.0 ($1.7 in the first six months of 2010, $20.1 in 2009, $60.6 in 2008, $158.3 in 2007, $228.8 in 2006, and $56.5 in 2005) for actions associated with our restructuring initiatives.

Restructuring Charges – First and Second Quarters of 2010

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded total costs to implement associated with previously approved initiatives that are part of our 2005 Restructuring Program of $1.6 and $1.7, respectively, and the costs consisted of the following:

• net benefits of $(2.0) and $(3.1), respectively, primarily for adjustments to the reserves for employee-related costs;

• implementation costs of $3.1 and $3.5, respectively, for professional service fees, primarily associated with our initiatives to outsource certain finance processes and realign certain distribution operations; and

• accelerated depreciation of $.5 and $1.3, respectively, associated with our initiatives to realign certain distribution operations.

The total costs to implement were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

Restructuring Charges – First and Second Quarters of 2009

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded total costs to implement associated with previously approved initiatives that are part of our 2005 Restructuring Program of $12.5 and $17.0, respectively, and the costs consisted of the following:

• net charges of $8.1 and $6.3, respectively, primarily for employee-related costs;

• implementation costs of $2.4 and $6.7, respectively, for professional service fees, primarily associated with our initiatives to outsource certain finance processes and realign certain distribution operations; and

• accelerated depreciation of $2.0 and $4.0, respectively, associated with our initiatives to realign certain distribution operations.

Of the total costs to implement, $12.2 and $16.7 were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and $.3 was recorded in cost of sales for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

The amounts shown in the tables above as charges recorded to date relate to initiatives that have been approved and recorded in the financial statements as the costs are probable and estimable. The amounts shown in the tables above as total expected charges represent charges recorded to date plus charges yet to be recorded for approved initiatives as the relevant accounting criteria for recording an expense have not yet been met. In addition to the charges included in the tables above, we will incur other costs to implement restructuring initiatives such as consulting, other professional services, and accelerated depreciation.

2009 Restructuring Program

In February 2009, we announced a new restructuring program (the “2009 Restructuring Program”) which targets increasing levels of efficiency and organizational effectiveness across the Company’s global operations. The 2009 Restructuring Program initiatives are expected to include:

• restructuring the Company’s global supply chain operations;

• realigning certain local business support functions to a more regional basis to drive increased efficiencies; and

• streamlining transaction related services, including selective outsourcing.

We expect to record total restructuring charges and other costs to implement restructuring initiatives in the range of $300 to $400 before taxes over the next several years, with implementation beginning in 2009 and expected to be completed by 2012-2013. We have recorded total costs to implement, net of adjustments, of $165.4 ($14.1 in the first six months of 2010, and $151.3 in 2009) for actions associated with our restructuring initiatives.

11. FAIR VALUE

We adopted the fair value measurement provisions required by the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification as of January 1, 2008, with the exception of the application of the provisions to non-recurring, nonfinancial assets and liabilities, which was adopted as of January 1, 2009 with no impact. The adoption of the fair value measurement provisions did not have a material impact on our fair value measurements. The fair value measurement provisions define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement provisions established a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 - Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions.

The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2010:

	Level 1		Level 2		Total
Assets:
Available-for-sale securities	$	1.8	$	—	$	1.8

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The net asset (liability) amounts recorded in the balance sheet (carrying amount) and the estimated fair values of financial instruments at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, consisted of the following:

	2010				2009
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount			Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents	$	984.1	$	984.1	$	1,311.6		$	1,311.6
Available-for-sale securities		1.8		1.8		1.9			1.9
Grantor trust cash and cash equivalents		2.8		2.8		7.6			7.6
Short term investments		16.7		16.7		26.8			26.8
Debt maturing within one year		607.7		607.7		138.1			138.1
Long-term debt, net of related discount or premium		1,891.0		1,919.9		2,307.8			2,441.0
Foreign exchange forward contracts		2.7		2.7		(2.9	)		(2.9	)
Interest-rate swap agreements		130.1		130.1		43.9			43.9

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents, Grantor trust cash and cash equivalents and Short term investments – Given the short term nature of these financial instruments, the stated cost approximates fair value.

Available-for-sale securities - The fair values of these investments were the quoted market prices for issues listed on securities exchanges.

Debt maturing within one year and long-term debt - The fair values of all debt and other financing were determined based on quoted market prices of similar long-term debt.

Foreign exchange forward contracts - The fair values of forward contracts were based on quoted forward foreign exchange prices at the reporting date.

Interest-rate swap agreements - The fair values of interest-rate swap agreements were estimated based on LIBOR yield curves at the reporting date.

12. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair values. The following table presents the fair value of derivative instruments outstanding at June 30, 2010:

AVON PRODUCTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

When we become a party to a derivative instrument, we designate the instrument as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge, a net investment hedge, or a non-hedge.

We assess, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s gain or loss, if any, is recorded in earnings in other expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. When we determine that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge, hedge accounting is discontinued. When it is probable that a hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, we discontinue hedge accounting for the affected portion of the forecasted transaction, and reclassify gains or losses that were accumulated in AOCI to earnings.

Interest Rate Risk

We use interest-rate swap agreements, which effectively convert the fixed rate on long-term debt to a floating interest rate, to manage our interest rate exposure. These agreements are designated as fair value hedges. At June 30, 2010, we held interest-rate swap agreements that effectively converted approximately 96% of our outstanding long-term, fixed-rate borrowings to a variable interest rate based on LIBOR. Our total exposure to floating interest rates at June 30, 2010, was approximately 98%.

At June 30, 2010, we had interest-rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges of fixed-rate debt, with notional amounts totaling $2,225. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded a net gain of $65.2 and $82.8 in interest expense for these interest-rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges. The gain on these interest-rate swap agreements was offset by an equal and offsetting loss in interest expense on our fixed-rate debt. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded a net loss of $51.7 and $54.8 in interest expense for these interest-rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges. The loss on these interest-rate swap agreements was offset by an equal and offsetting gain in interest expense on our fixed-rate debt.

At times, we may de-designate the hedging relationship of a receive-fixed/pay-variable interest-rate swap agreement. In these cases, we enter into receive-variable/pay-fixed interest-rate swap agreements that are designed to offset the gain or loss on the de-designated contract. At June 30, 2010, we had interest-rate swap agreements that are not designated as hedges with notional amounts totaling $250. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded a net loss of $.1 and $.1 in other expense, net associated with these undesignated interest-rate swap agreements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded a net loss of $.1 and $1.4 in other expense, net associated with these undesignated interest-rate swap agreements.

Foreign Currency Risk

The primary currencies for which we have net underlying foreign currency exchange rate exposures are the Argentine peso, Brazilian real, British pound, Canadian dollar, Chinese renminbi, Colombian peso, the euro, Japanese yen, Mexican peso, Philippine peso, Polish zloty, Russian ruble, Turkish lira, Ukrainian hryvnia and Venezuelan bolivar. We use foreign exchange forward contracts to manage a portion of our foreign currency exchange rate exposures. At June 30, 2010, we had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately $232.1 for the euro, the Hungarian forint, the Peruvian new sol, the Czech Republic koruna, the British pound, the Romanian leu, the Australian dollar and the New Zealand dollar.

We also use foreign exchange forward contracts to manage foreign currency exposure of intercompany loans. These contracts are not designated as hedges. The change in fair value of these contracts is immediately recognized in earnings and substantially offsets the foreign currency impact recognized in earnings relating to the intercompany loans. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded a loss of $11.7 and $12.1, respectively, in other expense, net related to these undesignated foreign exchange forward contracts which offset gains on the intercompany loans caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded a gain of $15.4 and $2.0, respectively, in other expense, net related to these undesignated foreign exchange forward contracts. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 we recorded a loss of $14.9 and gain of $.4, respectively, related to the intercompany loans, caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

In July 2010, Avon entered into an agreement to purchase substantially all the assets and liabilities of Silpada Designs, Inc. (“Silpada”) for approximately $650 in cash, plus a potential additional payment in early 2015 based on the achievement of earnings growth during the periods between 2012 through 2014. While there is no contractual minimum or maximum to this potential additional payment, we estimate that it could range from $50 to approximately $100. As of the date of this filing we cannot provide the amount of contingent consideration to be recorded as of the acquisition date as we have not yet completed a preliminary valuation for accounting purposes. The acquisition of Silpada, a direct seller, provides Avon with a complementary portfolio of jewelry products.

OVERVIEW

We are a global manufacturer and marketer of beauty and related products. Our business is conducted worldwide, primarily in the direct selling channel. We presently have sales operations in 65 countries and territories, including the U.S., and distribute products in 40 more. Our reportable segments are based on geographic operations in six regions: Latin America; North America; Central & Eastern Europe; Western Europe, Middle East & Africa; Asia Pacific; and China. We have centralized operations for Global Brand Marketing, Global Sales and Supply Chain. Our product categories are Beauty, Fashion and Home. Beauty consists of color cosmetics, fragrances, skin care and personal care. Fashion consists of fashion jewelry, watches, apparel, footwear and accessories. Home consists of gift and decorative products, housewares, entertainment and leisure products and children’s and nutritional products. Sales from Health and Wellness products andmark., a global cosmetics brand that focuses on the market for young women, are included among these three categories based on product type. Sales are made to the ultimate consumer principally through direct selling by approximately 6.2 million active independent Representatives, who are independent contractors and not our employees. The success of our business is highly dependent on recruiting, retaining and servicing our Representatives.

We view the geographic diversity of our businesses as a strategic advantage in part because it allows us to participate in higher growth beauty markets internationally. In developed markets, such as the U.S., we seek to achieve growth in line with that of the overall beauty market, while in developing and emerging markets, we seek to achieve higher growth targets. During 2009, approximately 80% of our consolidated revenue was derived from operations outside the U.S.

During the first half of 2010, revenues increased 11%, impacted by growth in Active Representatives and favorable foreign exchange. Constant $ revenues increased 7%. Sales from products in the Beauty category increased 11%, partially due to favorable foreign exchange. On a Constant $ basis, sales of products in the Beauty category increased 7% due to a 2% increase in units and 5% increase in net per unit, despite the negative impact from China. Active Representatives increased 5%, despite the negative impact from China. See the “Segment Review” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional information related to changes in revenue by segment.

During the first half of 2010, our operating margin was negatively impacted by the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency coupled with a required change to account for operations in Venezuela on a highly inflationary basis. As a result of using the historic dollar cost basis of nonmonetary assets, such as inventory, acquired prior to the devaluation, during the first half of 2010 operating profit was negatively impacted by $73.2 for the difference between the historical cost at the previous official exchange rate of 2.15 and the new official exchange rate of 4.30. We expect an additional negative impact of approximately $8 to 2010 operating profit and net income, primarily during the third quarter, for the difference between the historical cost at the previous official exchange rate of 2.15 and the new official exchange rate of 4.30.

In addition to the negative impact to operating margin discussed above, as a result of the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency coupled with a required change to account for operations in Venezuela on a highly inflationary basis, during the first quarter we also recorded net charges of $46.1 in “Other expense, net” and $12.7 in “income taxes”, reflecting the write-down of monetary assets and liabilities and deferred tax benefits. See discussion of Venezuela within the “Segment Review - Latin America” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for more information.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

Our strategic initiatives include advertising and representative value proposition (“RVP”) investments, the product line simplification program (“PLS”), Strategic Sourcing Initiative (“SSI”), enterprise resource planning system, zero-overhead-growth philosophy and sales and operation planning process. We are also implementing restructuring initiatives under our 2005 and 2009 Restructuring Programs. For a description of our key strategic initiatives, please refer to Item 7 of our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2009 Form 10-K”). With regards to our four major initiatives, SSI, PLS and the two restructuring programs, we remain on track with our expectations included in the 2009 Form 10-K. See Note 9, Restructuring Initiatives, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on our restructuring programs.

We believe that our operating cash flow and global cash balances of approximately $1.0 billion, coupled with the continuing execution of our turnaround strategies and the competitive advantages of our direct selling business model, will allow us to continue our focus on long-term sustainable, profitable growth. We are also focused on innovating our direct selling channel through technological and service model enhancements for our Representatives and assessing new product category opportunities. We also continue to offer an increased assortment of “smart value” products, which are quality products at affordable price points, and promote our Representative earnings opportunity to a wider audience.

On July 9, 2010, we, together with certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, entered into an agreement to purchase substantially all the assets and liabilities of Silpada Designs, Inc. (“Silpada”), a direct seller of jewelry products, primarily in North America, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $650. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we may be required to pay additional consideration in 2015 if Silpada’s North America business achieves specific earnings targets. We completed this transaction at the end of July 2010.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Information relating to new accounting standards is included in Note 1, Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS—THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AS COMPARED TO THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2009

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we disclose operating results that have been adjusted to exclude the impact of changes due to the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. We refer to these adjusted growth rates as Constant $ growth, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe this measure provides investors an additional perspective on trends. To exclude the impact of changes due to the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars, we calculate current year results and prior year results at a constant exchange rate. Currency impact is determined as the difference between actual growth rates and constant currency growth rates.

We present gross margin, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue, operating profit, operating margin and effective tax rate on a non-GAAP basis. The discussion of our segments presents operating profit and operating margin on a non-GAAP basis. We have provided a quantitative reconciliation of the difference between the non-GAAP financial measure and the financial measure calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its operating performance and believes that it is meaningful for investors to be made aware of, on a period to period basis, the impacts of 1) costs to implement (“CTI”) restructuring initiatives and 2) costs and charges related to Venezuela being designated as a highly inflationary economy and the subsequent devaluation of its currency (“Venezuelan special items”). The Venezuelan special items include the impact on the Statement of Income caused by the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency on monetary assets and liabilities, such as cash, receivables and payables; deferred tax assets and liabilities; and nonmonetary assets, such as inventory and prepaid expenses. For nonmonetary assets, the Venezuelan special items include the earnings impact caused by the difference between the historical cost of the assets at the previous official exchange rate of 2.15 and the new official exchange rate of 4.30. See Note 9, Restructuring Initiatives and the Latin America segment review below for more information on these items.

Amounts in the table above may not necessarily sum because the computations are made independently.

* - calculation not meaningful

⁽¹⁾ Advertising expenses are included within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Revenue

Total revenue increased 8% in the three months ended June 30, 2010, with favorable foreign exchange contributing one percentage point to the revenue increase. Constant $ revenue increased 7%, with increases in all regions except North America and China. The acquisition of Liz Earle Beauty Co. Limited (“Liz Earle”), contributed approximately 50 basis points to revenue growth. Active Representatives increased 5%.

On a category basis, the increase in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010, was primarily driven by an increase of 9% in Beauty sales, with increases in all sub-categories of Beauty. Within the Beauty category, fragrance increased 16%, color cosmetics increased 12%, skincare increased 4% and personal care increased 3%. Fashion sales increased 5% and Home sales increased 8%. On a Constant $ basis, the Beauty category increased 7%. Within the Beauty category, Constant $ sales of fragrance increased 15%, color cosmetics increased 9%, skincare increased 2% and personal care increased 1%. Skincare growth rates benefited from the Liz Earle acquisition. Constant $ sales of Fashion and Home increased 4% and 9%, respectively. The increase in sales of Fashion and Home was partially driven by the introduction of these categories in Central and Eastern Europe, offset by a decline in North America.

Total revenue increased 11% in the six months ended June 30, 2010, with favorable foreign exchange contributing 4 percentage points to the revenue increase. Constant $ revenue increased 7%. Active Representatives increased 5%.

On a category basis, the increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010, was primarily driven by an increase of 11% in Beauty sales, with increases in all sub-categories of Beauty. Within the Beauty category, fragrance increased 18%, color cosmetics increased 17%, personal care increased 7% and skincare increased 2%. Fashion sales increased 9% and Home sales increased 12%. On a Constant $ basis, the Beauty category increased 7%. Within the Beauty category, Constant $ sales of fragrance increased 14%, color cosmetics increased 11%, personal care increased 3% and skincare decreased 1%. Constant $ sales of Fashion and Home increased 6% and 10%, respectively. The increase in sales of Fashion and Home was partially driven by the introduction of these categories in Central and Eastern Europe, offset by a decline in North America.

Gross Margin

Gross margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, increased by 1.2 and .2 points, respectively. On a Non-GAAP basis, excluding the impact of the CTI restructuring and the Venezuelan special items, gross margin improved 2.6 and 1.5 points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, reflecting benefits from strong manufacturing productivity gains, which include benefits from SSI, and strategic price increases.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, increased $68.9 and $210.8, respectively. The increase for both the three- and six-month periods is primarily due to higher advertising costs, significant professional and related fees associated with the FCPA investigation and compliance reviews described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements included herein of approximately $24 (up approximately $15 from the three months ended June 30, 2009) and approximately $48 (up approximately $33 from the six months ended June 30, 2009) and higher volume related costs, such as distribution costs, partially offset by lower CTI from our restructuring initiatives. On a Non-GAAP basis, excluding the impact of CTI restructuring and the Venezuelan special items, as a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, increased by 1.8 and .6 points, respectively, due to higher advertising costs and the significant professional and related fees associated with the FCPA matters. We invested approximately $22 and $26 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, incrementally in our Representatives through RVP by continued implementation of our Sales Leadership program and internet enablement.

Other Expense

Interest expense for the three and six month ended June 30, 2010, decreased by 27% and 20%, respectively, due to lower debt levels and interest rates. At June 30, 2010, we held interest-rate swap agreements that effectively converted approximately 96% of our outstanding long-term, fixed-rate borrowings to a variable interest rate based on LIBOR.

Interest income decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to lower interest rates.

Other expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2010, increased due to a $46.1 negative impact from the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency on monetary assets and liabilities in conjunction with highly inflationary accounting discussed further within the Latin America segment review.

Effective Tax Rate

The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were 33.5% and 44.4%, respectively, compared to rates of 47.1% and 34.1% for the same periods of 2009. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were negatively impacted by 3.9 points and 13.1 points, respectively, due to the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency in conjunction with highly inflationary accounting discussed further within the Latin America segment review, partially offset by higher tax benefits from audit settlements and statute expirations in both periods of 2010. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, were negatively impacted by 13.3 points and 6.9 points, respectively, from the establishment of a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets as a result of restructuring activities. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009, also included a one-time tax benefit of 5.5 points resulting from a reduction in a foreign tax liability.

Total revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, increased due to growth in Active Representatives, driven by continued investments in RVP, a higher average order and favorable foreign exchange. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010, grew 33% in Brazil and 9% in Mexico, with benefits from favorable foreign exchange, while the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange drove a revenue decline of 27% in Venezuela for the three-month period of 2010. The results of our Venezuela operations are discussed in more detail below. Constant $ revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010, benefited from continued growth in most markets, particularly from growth of 14% in Brazil, 3% in Mexico and 45% in Venezuela. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, revenue grew 38% in Brazil and 11% in Mexico, benefiting from favorable foreign exchange, while the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange drove a revenue decline of 28% in Venezuela. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, Constant $ revenue benefited from continued growth in most markets, particularly from growth of 13% in Brazil, 2% in Mexico and 43% in Venezuela.

Constant $ revenue growth for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in Brazil was primarily driven by an increase in Active Representatives, as well as an increase in average order. Constant $ revenue growth in Mexico for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, was driven by an increase in average order. Constant $ revenue growth in Mexico for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, was partially offset by a decrease in Active Representatives. Constant $ revenue growth for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in Venezuela reflected a higher average order primarily due to increased prices due to inflation and a growth in Active Representatives.

Operating margin declined for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in Latin America primarily due to the negative impact of the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency in conjunction with highly inflationary accounting as discussed further below. The decline in operating margins during the three- and six-month periods caused by the Venezuelan special items were partially offset by benefits of 2.2 points and 1.3 points, respectively, caused by lower CTI restructuring. On a Non-GAAP basis, excluding the Venezuelan special items and CTI restructuring, the decrease in operating margin during the three-month period of 2010 was primarily driven by higher advertising costs. On a Non-GAAP basis, the increase in operating margin during the six-month period of 2010 was primarily driven by improvements in gross margin caused by favorable pricing and mix.

Effective January 1, 2010, we began to account for Venezuela as a highly inflationary economy. Effective January 11, 2010, the Venezuelan government devalued its currency and moved to a two-tier exchange structure. The official exchange rate moved from 2.15 to 2.60 for essential goods and to 4.30 for nonessential goods and services. We expect most of the imports of our subsidiary in Venezuela (“Avon Venezuela”) to fall into the nonessential classification.

26

AVON PRODUCTS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

As a result of the change in the nonessentials official rate to 4.30 in conjunction with accounting for our operations in Venezuela under highly inflationary accounting guidelines, during the first quarter we recorded net charges of $46.1 in “Other expense, net” and $12.7 in “income taxes”, for a total after-tax charge of $58.8, reflecting the write-down of monetary assets and liabilities and deferred tax benefits. Additionally, certain nonmonetary assets must continue to be carried at historic dollar cost subsequent to the devaluation. Therefore, the historic dollar costs impact the income statement during 2010 at a disproportionate rate as they have not been devalued based on the new exchange rates. As a result of using the historic dollar cost basis of nonmonetary assets, such as inventory, acquired prior to the devaluation, operating profit and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were negatively impacted by $33.8 and $73.2, respectively, for the difference between the historical cost at the previous official exchange rate of 2.15 and the new official exchange rate of 4.30. We expect an additional negative impact of approximately $8 to 2010 operating profit and net income, primarily during the third quarter, for the difference between the historical cost at the previous official exchange rate of 2.15 and the new nonessentials official exchange rate of 4.30.

Currency restrictions enacted by the Venezuelan government in 2003 have impacted the ability of Avon Venezuela to obtain foreign currency at the official rate to pay for imported products. Since 2003, Avon Venezuela had been obtaining their foreign currency needs beyond the amounts that could be obtained at official rates through non-government sources where the exchange rates were less favorable than the official rate (“parallel market”). In late May 2010, the Venezuelan government took control over the previously freely-traded parallel market. Trading in the parallel market was suspended for several weeks in May and June and reopened as a regulated (“SITME”) market in early June 2010. The government has imposed volume restrictions on trading activity, limiting an entity’s activity to a maximum of $0.35 per month. The current limit is below the monthly foreign exchange requirements of our Venezuelan operations and, unless these restrictions are modified, may have a negative impact on Avon Venezuela’s future operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to recover the higher cost of obtaining foreign currency in the SITME market as compared to the nonessentials official rate through operating activities, such as increased pricing or cost reductions in other areas.

At June 30, 2010, we had a net asset position of $148 associated with our operations in Venezuela, which included cash balances of approximately $83, of which approximately $80 was denominated in bolivars remeasured at the June 30, 2010, nonessentials official exchange rate and approximately $3 was denominated in U.S. dollars. Of the $148 net asset position, approximately $94 was associated with bolívar-denominated monetary net assets and deferred income taxes. Additionally, for the first half of 2010 Avon Venezuela’s revenue and operating profit represented approximately 3% and (12)% of Avon’s consolidated revenue and Avon’s consolidated operating profit, respectively. Avon Venezuela’s operating profit as a percentage of Avon’s consolidated operating profit was negatively impacted by 16 points due to the Venezuelan special items.

During the early part of the second quarter of 2010, the exchange rate in the parallel market included trades generally in the range from 6 to 8 Bolivars to the U.S. dollar, and the exchange rate in the SITME market ranged within 5 to 6 Bolivars to the U.S. Dollar during the time it was open in June. To illustrate our sensitivity to potential future changes in the nonessentials official exchange rate in Venezuela, if the nonessentials official exchange rate was further devalued as of June 30, 2010, to a rate of 5.8 Bolivars to the U.S. dollar, which was approximately the rate on June 30, 2010, in the SITME market, or an approximate 25% devaluation, our results would be negatively impacted as follows:

• As a result of the use of a further devalued exchange rate for the remeasurement of Avon Venezuela’s revenues and profits, Avon’s annualized consolidated revenues would likely be negatively impacted by approximately 1% and annualized consolidated operating profit would likely be negatively impacted by approximately 1% prospectively, assuming no operational improvements occurred to offset the negative impact of a further devaluation.

• Avon’s consolidated operating profit during the first twelve months following the devaluation in this example would likely be negatively impacted by approximately 3%, assuming no offsetting operational improvements. The larger negative impact on operating profit during the first twelve months as compared to the prospective impact is caused by costs of nonmonetary assets being carried at historic dollar cost in accordance with the requirement to account for Venezuela as a highly inflationary economy while revenue would be remeasured at the further devalued rate.

• We would likely incur an immediate charge of approximately $18 ($14 in “Other expenses, net” and $4 in “Income taxes”) associated with the $94 of Bolívar-denominated monetary net assets and deferred income taxes.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, costs associated with acquiring goods that required settlement in U.S. dollars through the parallel or SITME markets in Venezuela included within operating profit were approximately $22 and $46, respectively. The amounts reported within operating profit during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, were approximately $7 and $16, respectively.

At June 30, 2010, Avon Venezuela had pending requests submitted with an agency of the Venezuelan government for approximately $125 for remittance of dividends and royalties to its parent company in the U.S. These requests had been periodically submitted between 2005 and 2009. Since these requests were made prior to the announcement of the devaluation of the currency in January of 2010, they are eligible for the essential exchange rate of 2.60 bolivars to the U.S. dollar.

North America consists largely of the U.S. business.

Total revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, decreased due to a lower average order received from Representatives and a decline in Active Representatives. The decline in Active Representatives for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, was largely due to a decline in additions compared with last year’s record recruiting campaign, resulting in strong growth in Active Representatives during 2009 causing an unfavorable comparison in 2010. Sales of non-Beauty products decreased 9% and 7% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010. Sales of Beauty products decreased 3% and 1% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010.

During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, operating margin benefited by 1.5 points and .9 points, respectively, due to lower CTI restructuring compared to the same period in the prior year. On a Non-GAAP basis, excluding CTI restructuring, the increase in North America operating margin during the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, was primarily driven by improvements in gross margin caused by favorable pricing and mix and manufacturing productivity gains, partially offset by the revenue decline.

The results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, may not be reflective of the remainder of the year and we expect our results to vary on a quarterly basis, as we focus on our recovery plan and transitioning our North America business, which includes optimizing our product portfolio and enhancing field fundamentals.

Total revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, increased as a result of growth in Active Representatives and a higher average order, as well as favorable foreign exchange. Active Representative results reflect a sequential deceleration of growth rates as the year-ago quarter benefited from a very strong incentive program. The revenue growth in the region for the three- and six-month periods was primarily driven by growth of 15% and 26% in Russia, which partially benefited from favorable foreign exchange. Constant $ revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in Russia increased by 7% and 14% respectively due to a higher average order and growth in Active Representatives.

During the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2010, operating margin benefited by 5.5 points and 2.9 points, respectively, due to lower CTI restructuring compared to the same period in the prior year. On a Non-GAAP basis, excluding CTI restructuring, the increase in operating margin during the three- and six-month periods of 2010 was primarily driven by the benefit of higher revenues with fixed overhead expenses as well as a shift in the timing of advertising. Operating margin for the three-month period of 2010 also benefited from improved gross margin, driven by favorable pricing and improved manufacturing productivity including the benefits of SSI.

Total revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, increased as a result of an increase in Active Representatives. The region’s revenue growth during 2010 was primarily due to significant growth in Turkey and South Africa, as well as the acquisition of Liz Earle Beauty Co. Limited, which contributed approximately 4 points and 2 points to revenue growth for the three- and six-month periods of 2010, respectively. During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, revenue growth in Turkey of 32% and 31% respectively, partially benefited from favorable foreign exchange. Constant $ revenue growth of 27% and 25% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in Turkey was primarily attributable to strong growth in Active Representatives, driven by investments in RVP. During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, revenue growth in South Africa of 94% and 101%, respectively, partially benefited from favorable foreign exchange. Constant $ revenue growth of 72% and 69% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in South Africa was primarily attributable to strong growth in Active Representatives, driven by investments in RVP, and the expansion of our geographic reach in the country. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, revenues in the United Kingdom declined 4% primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency. Constant $ revenue in the United Kingdom declined by 1%, due to a lower average order, partially offset by a growth in Active Representatives. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, the impact of favorable foreign exchange rates drove revenue increases of 3% in the United Kingdom, while Constant $ revenue increased by 1%, due to a growth in Active representatives, partially offset by a lower average order.

During the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2010, operating margin benefited by 5.3 points and 3.2 points, respectively, due to lower CTI restructuring compared to the same period in the prior year. On a Non-GAAP basis, excluding CTI restructuring, the increase in operating margin during the three- and six-month periods of 2010, was primarily driven by improvements in gross margin, driven by improved manufacturing productivity including the benefits of SSI. In addition, operating margin for both periods of 2010 benefited from higher revenues on fixed overhead expenses.

Total revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, increased due to favorable foreign exchange and growth in Active Representatives, partially offset by a lower average order. The region’s Constant $ revenue increase for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, was primarily due to growth in the Philippines, offset by a decline in Japan. Revenue grew 14% and 17%, respectively, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in the Philippines, benefiting partially from favorable foreign exchange. Constant $ revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, in the Philippines increased by 9% and 13%, respectively, driven by growth in Active Representatives, which was supported by RVP initiatives. Revenue in Japan decreased by 3% and 7%, respectively, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010. Constant $ revenue in Japan decreased by 7% and 11%, respectively, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, due to lower revenues from both direct mail and direct selling. We continue to see downward pressure on our results in Japan.

Operating margin for the three- and six-months periods ended June 30, 2010, improved due to lower restructuring costs which benefited operating margin by 5.8 points and 3.1 points for the three- and six-month periods, respectively. On an adjusted Non-GAAP basis, excluding CTI restructuring, operating margin for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, benefited from improved gross margin, which benefited from lower product costs, and the benefit of higher revenues and fixed overhead expenses. In addition, operating margin for both periods of 2010 benefited from growth in markets that achieve higher margins than the region’s average margins. These benefits were partially offset by increased investment in RVP for the three- month period ended June 30, 2010.

Total revenue for the three- and six-month periods ending June 30, 2010, decreased due to significant revenue declines in both direct selling and Beauty Boutiques. The fundamental challenges in our complex hybrid business model, including conflicting needs of retail and direct selling, impacted both businesses, resulting in an 18% and 22% reduction in Active Representatives for the three- and six-month periods, respectively. Our continued transition away from our complex hybrid business model to one which focuses on direct selling and updating our service center model, is expected to include a realigned field compensation structure and recalibrated merchandising and campaign management strategies to support direct selling. This will position us to significantly expand our direct selling penetration and coverage. However, this transition may result in attrition in our Beauty Boutiques over time. The transition will continue to negatively impact our near-term outlook. We remain optimistic about our long-term revenue and operating profit opportunities.

The unfavorable change in operating margin for the three- and six-month periods ending June 30, 2010, is primarily driven by significantly lower revenues.

The increase in Net Global expenses for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, was primarily attributable to significant professional and related fees associated with the FCPA investigation and compliance reviews described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements included herein of approximately $24 (up approximately $15 from the three months ended June 30, 2009) and approximately $48 (up approximately $33 from the six months ended June 30, 2009), respectively, higher costs associated with global initiatives and costs associated with business acquisitions. Professional and related fees associated with the FCPA investigation and compliance reviews, while difficult to predict, are expected to continue during the course of this investigation. These costs were not allocated to the segments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal sources of funds historically have been cash flows from operations, commercial paper and borrowings under lines of credit. As disclosed in the Latin America Segment Review, currency restrictions enacted by the Venezuelan government have impacted our ability to repatriate dividends and royalties from our Venezuelan operations on a timely basis. We currently believe that existing cash outside of Venezuela, as well as cash to be generated from operations outside of Venezuela along with available sources of public and private financing are adequate to meet the Company’s anticipated requirements for working capital, dividends, capital expenditures, the share repurchase program, possible acquisitions and other cash needs in the short and long term.

We may, from time to time, seek to repurchase our equity or to retire our outstanding debt, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to derivative instruments or otherwise.

Retirements of debt will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors, and the amounts involved may be material. We may also elect to incur additional debt or issue equity or convertible securities to finance ongoing operations, acquisitions or to meet our other liquidity needs.

In July 2010, Avon completed the purchase of substantially all the assets and liabilities of Silpada for approximately $650, in cash. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we may be required to pay additional consideration in 2015 if Silpada’s North America business achieves specific earnings targets. The acquisition was funded with current cash and commercial paper borrowings.

Any issuances of equity securities or convertible securities could have a dilutive effect on the ownership interest of our current shareholders and may adversely impact earnings per share in future periods.

Our liquidity could also be impacted by dividends, capital investments and acquisitions. At any given time, we may be in discussions and negotiations with potential acquisition candidates. Acquisitions may be accretive or dilutive and by their nature, involve numerous risks and uncertainties. See our Cautionary Statement for purposes of the “Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Cash Flows

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities during the first half of 2010 was $165.7 higher than during the first half of 2009, primarily due to favorable working capital levels in accounts payables and higher cash related net income.

Net Cash Used by Investing Activities

Net cash used by investing activities during the first half of 2010 was $233.8 higher than during the first half of 2009, primarily due to the acquisition of a beauty business in Western Europe. In addition during the first half of 2009, we redeemed certain corporate-owned life insurance policies.

Net Cash (Used) Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash used by financing activities of $219.7 during the first half of 2010, compared unfavorably to cash provided by financing activities of $60.8 during the first half of 2009. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2009 included proceeds from a $850 debt issuance during the first quarter of 2009, which was partially offset by a repayment of commercial paper of $203.8.

We increased our quarterly dividend payments to $.22 per share in 2010 from $.21 per share in 2009.

Capital Resources

We maintain a $1,000.0 revolving credit and competitive advance facility (the “credit facility”). See our 2009 Form 10-K for more information on the credit facility. There were no borrowings under this credit facility as of June 30, 2010.

We also maintain a $1,000.0 commercial paper program, which is supported by the credit facility. There were no amounts outstanding under this program as of June 30, 2010.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES

Interest Rate Risk

We use interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the fixed rate on the long-term debt to a floating interest rate, to manage our interest rate exposure. At June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, we held interest-rate swap agreements that effectively converted approximately 96% and 82%, respectively, of our outstanding long-term, fixed-rate borrowings to a variable interest rate based on LIBOR. Our total exposure to floating interest rates at June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009 was approximately 98% and 83%, respectively.

Foreign Currency Risk

We operate globally, with operations in various locations around the world. We derive approximately 80% of our consolidated revenue from operations of subsidiaries outside of the U.S. The functional currency for most of our foreign operations is the local currency. We may reduce our exposure to fluctuations in cash flows associated with changes in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments.

There have been no material changes in market risk from the information provided in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of our 2009 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive and principal financial officers carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at June 30, 2010, at the reasonable assurance level. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information relating to Avon (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management has evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, whether any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on the evaluation we conducted, management has concluded that no such changes have occurred.

We are implementing an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system on a worldwide basis, which is expected to improve the efficiency of our supply chain and financial transaction processes. The gradual implementation is expected to occur in phases over the next several years. The implementation of a worldwide ERP system will likely affect the processes that constitute our internal control over financial reporting and will require testing for effectiveness.

We completed implementation in certain significant markets and will continue to roll-out the ERP system over the next several years. As with any new information technology application we implement, this application, along with the internal controls over financial reporting included in this process, were appropriately tested for effectiveness prior to the implementation in these countries. We concluded, as part of our evaluation described in the above paragraph, that the implementation of ERP in these countries has not materially affected our internal control over financial reporting.
