LIBBEY INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Dollars in thousands, except per share data
(unaudited)
1. Description of the Business
Libbey is the leading producer of glass tableware products in the Western Hemisphere, in addition to supplying to key markets throughout the world. We produce glass tableware in five countries and sell to customers in over 100 countries. We have the largest manufacturing, distribution and service network among glass tableware manufacturers in the Western Hemisphere and are one of the largest glass tableware manufacturers in the world. We design and market an extensive line of high-quality glass tableware, ceramic dinnerware, metal flatware, hollowware and serveware, and plastic items to a broad group of customers in the foodservice, retail and business-to-business markets. We own and operate two glass tableware manufacturing plants in the United States as well as glass tableware manufacturing plants in the Netherlands, Portugal, China and Mexico. We also own and operate a plastics plant in Wisconsin. Until April 9, 2009, we operated a ceramic dinnerware manufacturing facility in Syracuse, New York. In addition, we import products from overseas in order to complement our line of manufactured items. The combination of manufacturing and procurement allows us to compete in the global tableware market by offering an extensive product line at competitive prices.
Our website can be found atwww.libbey.com. We make available, free of charge, at this website all of our reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including our annual report on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, our current reports on Form 8-K, as well as amendments to those reports. These reports are made available on our website as soon as reasonably practicable after their filing with, or furnishing to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and can also be found atwww.sec.gov.
Our shares are traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTC BB) under the ticker symbol LYBI.OB.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
See our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for a description of significant accounting policies not listed below.
Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Libbey Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, Libbey or the Company). Our fiscal year end is December 31st. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
Net sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations include revenue earned when products are shipped and title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. Revenue is recorded net of returns, discounts and incentives offered to customers. Cost of sales includes cost to manufacture and/or purchase products, warehouse, shipping and delivery costs and other costs.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries that operate in a local currency environment, where that local currency is the functional currency, are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Income and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the year. The effect of exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency is recorded in other (expense) income.
9
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax attribute carry-forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. FAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” requires that a valuation allowance be recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined separately for each tax jurisdiction in which we conduct our operations or otherwise incur taxable income or losses. In the United States and China, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred income tax assets. In addition, partial valuation allowances have been recorded in the Netherlands, Portugal and Mexico.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123-R, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123-R”). Stock-based compensation cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. SFAS No. 123-R applies to all of our outstanding unvested stock-based payment awards as of January 1, 2006, and all prospective awards using the modified prospective transition method without restatement of prior periods. Stock-based compensation expense charged to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009 was $0.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The stock-based compensation expense charged to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
New Accounting Standards
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”).SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement clarifies how to measure fair value as permitted under other accounting pronouncements but does not require any new fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP157-2”), which delayed until January 1, 2009 the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except for those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset when the Market for That Asset is Not Active” (“FSP 157-3”), which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 as it relates to the valuation of financial assets in a market that is not active for those financial assets. FSP 157-3 was effective upon issuance. In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions that are not Orderly” (“FSP 157-4”). This FSP provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. This FSP also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP 157-4 was effective for financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted SFAS 157 as of January 1, 2008, but had not applied it to non-recurring, nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The adoption of SFAS 157 and its related FSPs (FSP 157-2, FSP 157-3 and FSP 157-4) had no impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. We adopted SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. See notes 4, 9 and 13 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”), which changes the accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary in consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 re-characterizes minority interests as noncontrolling interests and requires noncontrolling interests to be classified as a component of shareholders equity. We adopted SFAS 160 as of January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements as we currently do not have any noncontrolling interests.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS 161”), which requires additional disclosures about the objectives of the derivative instruments and hedging activities, the method of accounting for such instruments under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and a tabular disclosure of the effects of such instruments and related hedged items on our financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. SFAS 161 was effective for Libbey on January 1, 2009. Since SFAS 161 only requires additional disclosures, adoption of this statement did not have a
10
material impact on our consolidated financial statements. See note 9 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP 142-3”), which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” FSP 142-3 was effective for Libbey on January 1, 2009. The adoption of FSP 142-3 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS 162”), which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements. The hierarchical guidance provided by SFAS 162 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. It also clarifies the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based employee stock option valuation instruments on the evaluation. EITF 07-5 was effective for Libbey on January 1, 2009. The adoption of EITF 07-5 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities” (“FSP 03-6-1”). FSP 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting, and therefore need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share (EPS) under the two-class method described in paragraphs 60 and 61 of SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” FSP 03-6-1 was effective for Libbey on January 1, 2009, and requires that all prior period EPS data is adjusted retrospectively. The adoption of FSP 03-6-1 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets” (“FSP 132(R)-1”). FSP 132(R)-1 amends FASB Statement No. 132 (revised 2003), “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits,” to provide guidance on an employer’s disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. FSP 132(R)-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of FSP 132(R)-1.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“FSP 107-1”). FSP 107-1 amends FASB statement 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This FSP also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. FSP 107-1 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Since FSP 107-1 only requires additional disclosures, adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. See note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”). SFAS 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS 165 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. In accordance with SFAS 165, we have evaluated and, as necessary, made changes to these unaudited condensed financial statements for the events through August 7, 2009, the date that the financial statements were issued. There were no subsequent events that provided evidence about the conditions existing at the balance sheet date.
In June 2009 the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “TheFASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS 168”). The objective of SFAS 168 is to replace SFAS 162 and to establish theFASB Accounting Standards Codification™(Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All previous existing accounting standards are superseded by the Codification as described in SFAS 168. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative.
11
SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 168 to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year’s financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used in the current year financial statements.

ABL Facility
The ABL Facility is with a group of six banks and provides for a revolving credit and swing line facility permitting borrowings for Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe up to an aggregate of $150.0 million, with Libbey Europe’s borrowings being limited to $75.0 million. Borrowings under the ABL Facility mature December 16, 2010. Swing line borrowings are limited to $15.0 million, with swing line borrowings for Libbey Europe being limited to€7.5 million. Loans comprising each CBFR (CB Floating Rate) Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, bear interest at the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Rate, and euro-denominated swing line borrowings (Eurocurrency Loans) bear interest calculated at the Netherlands swing line rate, as defined in the ABL Facility. The Applicable Rates for CBFR Loans and Eurocurrency Loans vary depending on our aggregate remaining availability. The Applicable Rates for CBFR Loans and Eurocurrency Loans were 0.0 percent and 1.75 percent, respectively, at June 30, 2009. There were no Libbey Glass borrowings under the facility at June 30, 2009, while Libbey Europe had outstanding borrowings of $16.9 million at June 30, 2009, at an interest rate of 3.57 percent. Interest is payable on the last day of the interest period, which can range from one month to six months.
All borrowings under the ABL Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in (i) substantially all assets of (a) Libbey Glass and (b) substantially all of Libbey Glass’s present and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, (ii) (a) 100 percent of the stock of Libbey Glass, (b) 100 percent of the stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’s present and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, (c) 100 percent of the non-voting stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’s first-tier present and future foreign subsidiaries and (d) 65 percent of the voting stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’s first-tier present and future foreign subsidiaries, and (iii) substantially all proceeds and products of the property and assets described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence.
Additionally, borrowings by Libbey Europe under the ABL Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in (i) substantially all of the assets of Libbey Europe, the parent of Libbey Europe and certain of its subsidiaries, (ii) 100 percent of the stock of Libbey
14
Europe and certain subsidiaries of Libbey Europe, and (iii) substantially all proceeds and products of the property and assets described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence.
Libbey pays a quarterly Commitment Fee, as defined by the ABL Facility, on the total credit provided under the Facility. The Commitment Fee varies depending on our aggregate availability. The Commitment Fee was 0.25 percent at June 30, 2009. No compensating balances are required by the Agreement. The Agreement does not require compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, unless aggregate unused availability falls below $15.0 million. If our aggregate unused ABL availability were to fall below $15.0 million, the fixed charge coverage ratio requirement would be 1:10 to 1:00. The fixed charge coverage ratio is defined as the ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and minority interest (EBITDA) minus capital expenditures to fixed charges (EBITDA minus capital expenditures / fixed charges). Among the items included in the calculation of fixed charges are cash interest expense, scheduled principal payments on outstanding debt and capital lease obligations, taxes paid in cash, dividends paid in cash and required cash contributions to our pension plans in excess of expense.
The borrowing base under the ABL Facility is determined by a monthly analysis of the eligible accounts receivable, inventory and fixed assets. The borrowing base is the sum of (a) 85 percent of eligible accounts receivable, (b) the lesser of (i) 85 percent of the net orderly liquidation value (NOLV) of eligible inventory, (ii) 65 percent of eligible inventory, or (iii) $75.0 million, and (c) the lesser of $25.0 million and the aggregate of (i) 75 percent of the NOLV of eligible equipment and (ii) 50 percent of the fair market value of eligible real property.
The available total borrowing base is offset by real estate and ERISA reserves totaling $8.2 million and mark-to-market reserves for natural gas and interest rate swaps of $11.9 million. The ABL Facility also provides for the issuance of $30.0 million of letters of credit, which are applied against the $150.0 million limit. At June 30, 2009, we had $8.4 million in letters of credit outstanding under the ABL Facility. Remaining unused availability on the ABL Facility was $44.6 million at December 31, 2008, and $56.6 million at June 30, 2009.
Senior Notes
Libbey Glass and Libbey Inc. entered into a purchase agreement pursuant to which Libbey Glass agreed to sell $306.0 million aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior secured notes due June 1, 2011 to the initial purchasers named in a private placement. The net proceeds of these notes, after deducting a discount and the estimated expenses and fees, were approximately $289.8 million. On February 15, 2007, we exchanged $306.0 million aggregate principal amount of our floating rate senior secured notes due June 1, 2011, which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Senior Notes), for the notes sold in the private placement. The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate equal to six-month LIBOR plus 7.0 percent and were offered at a discount of 2 percent of face value. Interest with respect to the Senior Notes is payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1. The interest rate was 8.26 percent at June 30, 2009. Neither the Senior Notes nor the indenture governing them contain financial covenants.
We have Interest Rate Protection Agreements (Rate Agreements) with respect to $200.0 million of debt as a means to manage our exposure to fluctuating interest rates. The Rate Agreements effectively convert this portion of our long-term borrowings from variable rate debt to fixed-rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future income. The fixed interest rate for our borrowings related to the Rate Agreements at June 30, 2009, excluding applicable fees, is 5.24 percent per year and the total interest rate, including applicable fees, is 12.24 percent per year. These Rate Agreements expire on December 1, 2009. Total remaining Senior Notes not covered by the Rate Agreements have fluctuating interest rates with a weighted average rate of 8.26 percent per year at June 30, 2009. If the counterparties to these Rate Agreements were to fail to perform, these Rate Agreements would no longer protect us from interest rate fluctuations. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. All interest rate swap counterparties were rated A+ or better, as of June 30, 2009, by Standard and Poor’s.
The fair market value for the Rate Agreements at June 30, 2009 was a $4.0 million liability. The fair values of the Rate Agreements are based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future variable cash receipts and the discounted future fixed cash payments. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. We do not expect to cancel these agreements and expect them to expire as originally contracted.
The Senior Notes are guaranteed by Libbey Inc. and all of Libbey Glass’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any of Libbey Glass’s debt or debt of any subsidiary guarantor (see Note 11). The Senior Notes and related guarantees have the benefit of a second-priority lien, subject to permitted liens, on collateral consisting of substantially all the tangible and intangible assets of Libbey Glass and its domestic subsidiary guarantors that secure all of the indebtedness under Libbey Glass’s ABL Facility. The
15
Collateral does not include the assets of non-guarantor subsidiaries that secure the ABL Facility.
PIK Notes
Concurrently with the execution of the purchase agreement with respect to the Senior Notes, Libbey Glass and Libbey Inc. entered into a purchase agreement (Unit Purchase Agreement) pursuant to which Libbey Glass agreed to sell, to a purchaser named in the private placement, units consisting of $102.0 million aggregate principal amount 16 percent senior subordinated secured pay-in-kind notes due December 1, 2011 (PIK Notes) and detachable warrants to purchase 485,309 shares of Libbey Inc. common stock (Warrants) exercisable on or after June 16, 2006 and expiring on December 1, 2011. The warrant holders do not have voting rights. The net proceeds, after deducting a discount and estimated expenses and fees, were approximately $97.0 million. The proceeds were allocated between the Warrants and the underlying debt based on their respective fair values at the time of issuance. The amount allocated to the Warrants has been recorded in equity, with the offset recorded as a discount on the underlying debt. Each Warrant is exercisable at $11.25. The PIK Notes were offered at a discount of 2 percent of face value. Interest is payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1, but during the first three years interest was payable by issuance of additional PIK Notes. Interest on our PIK Notes will be payable in cash beginning December 1, 2009. At June 30, 2009, the total principal amount of PIK Notes was $160.9 million. Neither the PIK Notes nor the indenture governing them contain financial covenants.
The obligations of Libbey Glass under the PIK Notes are guaranteed by Libbey Inc. and all of Libbey Glass’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any of Libbey Glass’s debt or debt of any subsidiary guarantor (see Note 11). The PIK Notes and related guarantees are senior subordinated obligations of Libbey Glass and the guarantors of the PIK Notes and are entitled to the benefit of a third-priority lien, subject to permitted liens, on the collateral that secures the Senior Notes.
Promissory Note
In September 2001, we issued a $2.7 million promissory note in connection with the purchase of our Laredo, Texas warehouse facility. At June 30, 2009, we had $1.6 million outstanding on the promissory note. Interest with respect to the promissory note is paid monthly.
Notes Payable
We have overdraft lines of credit for a maximum of€2.3 million. The $1.3 million outstanding at June 30, 2009 was the U.S. dollar equivalent under the euro-based overdraft line, and the interest rate was 4.36 percent. Interest with respect to the note payable is paid monthly.
RMB Loan Contract
On January 23, 2006, Libbey Glassware (China) Co., Ltd. (Libbey China), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Libbey Inc., entered into an RMB Loan Contract (RMB Loan Contract) with China Construction Bank Corporation Langfang Economic Development Area Sub-Branch (CCB). Pursuant to the RMB Loan Contract, CCB agreed to lend to Libbey China RMB 250.0 million, or the current equivalent of approximately $36.6 million, for the construction of our production facility in China and the purchase of related equipment, materials and services. The loan has a term of eight years and bears interest at a variable rate as announced by the People’s Bank of China. As of the date of the initial advance under the Loan Contract, the annual interest rate was 5.51 percent, and as of June 30, 2009, the annual interest rate was 6.19 percent. As of June 30, 2009, the outstanding balance was RMB 250.0 million (approximately $36.6 million). Interest is payable quarterly. Payments of principal in the amount of RMB 30.0 million (approximately $4.4 million) and RMB 40.0 million (approximately $5.8 million) must be made on July 20, 2012, and December 20, 2012, respectively, and three payments of principal in the amount of RMB 60.0 million (approximately $8.8 million) each must be made on July 20, 2013, December 20, 2013, and January 20, 2014, respectively. The obligations of Libbey China are secured by a guarantee executed by Libbey Inc. for the benefit of CCB.
RMB Working Capital Loan
In March 2007, Libbey China entered into a RMB 50.0 million working capital loan with China Construction Bank. The 3-year term loan has a principal payment at maturity on March 14, 2010, has a current interest rate of 5.40 percent, and is secured by a Libbey Inc. guarantee. At June 30, 2009, the U.S. dollar equivalent on the line was $7.3 million. Interest is payable quarterly.
Obligations Under Capital Leases
16
In prior periods, we had leased certain machinery and equipment under agreements that were classified as capital leases. These leases were assumed in the Crisal acquisition. The cost of the equipment under capital leases was included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as property, plant and equipment, and the related depreciation expense was included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
There are no future minimum lease payments required under the capital leases as of June 30, 2009.
BES Euro Line
In January 2007, Crisal entered into a seven year,€11.0 million line of credit (approximately $15.5 million) with BANCO ESPÍRITO SANTO, S.A. (BES). The $15.5 million outstanding at June 30, 2009 was the U.S. dollar equivalent under the line at an interest rate of 3.77 percent. Payment of principal in the amount of€1.1 million (approximately $1.6 million) is due in January 2010, payment of€1.6 million (approximately $2.3 million) is due in January 2011, payment of€2.2 million (approximately $3.1 million) is due in January 2012, payment of€2.8 million (approximately $3.9 million) is due in January 2013 and payment of€3.3 million (approximately $4.6 million) is due in January 2014. Interest with respect to the line is paid every six months.
Other Debt
The other debt of $0.7 million primarily consists of government-subsidized loans for equipment purchases at Crisal.
Fair Value of Borrowings
The fair value of the Company’s debt has been calculated based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues. Our floating rate $306.0 million Senior Notes due June, 2011 had an estimated fair value of $192.8 million at June 30, 2009. The $160.9 million PIK Notes have been held by a single holder since inception, and there is no active market from which a fair value could be derived. The value of the remainder of our debt approximates carrying value at June 30, 2009.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Historically, cash flows generated from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL facility have allowed us to meet our cash requirements, including capital expenditures and working capital needs. Remaining unused availability on the ABL Facility was $56.6 million at June 30, 2009 and $44.6 million at December 31, 2008. In addition, our cash and cash equivalents balance of $24.1 million at June 30, 2009 is available for our short term operating needs. We were impacted by recessionary pressures in 2008, especially during the fourth quarter of the year, and the first half of 2009, and we anticipate that the global economic recession will continue throughout 2009 and perhaps beyond. In addition, interest on our PIK Notes will be payable in cash beginning December 1, 2009. We began taking a number of steps to enhance our liquidity in 2008, have continued with further steps in 2009 (including those announced in February, 2009), and have begun to see the benefits of these measures in our positive cash flow from operations for the first half of 2009. However, if cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or arrange additional debt financing. Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be volatile. The credit and capital markets remain challenging. These issues, along with significant write-offs in the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk and the current weak economic conditions, have made it difficult, and will likely continue to make it difficult, to obtain funding in future periods. If cash from operations and cash available from our ABL Facility are not sufficient to meet our needs, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts and/or on acceptable terms in the near future or when our debt obligations reach maturity. Our ABL Facility expires in December 2010, the Senior Notes expire in June 2011, and the PIK Notes expire in December 2011. Furthermore, because of the current price of our stock, we cannot anticipate that it would be desirable to sell additional equity, even if we were able to do so. However, based upon our operating plans and current forecast expectations (including expectations that the global economy will not deteriorate further) we anticipate that we will generate positive cash flow from operations and, if necessary, have sufficient cash availability from our ABL Facility to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.
5. Special Charges
In December 2008, we announced that our Syracuse China manufacturing facility and our Mira Loma, California distribution center would be shut down in early to mid-2009 in order to reduce costs. See Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 for further
17
discussion. We incurred additional charges of approximately $0.2 million and $2.7 million in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, related to these planned closures. The Syracuse China facility was closed on April 9, 2009 and the Mira Loma distribution center was closed on May 31, 2009.
A charge of $1.1 million was incurred in the first quarter of 2009 to write down certain raw materials and work in process inventory that could not be converted to finished product. An immaterial amount of this inventory was subsequently sold in the second quarter of 2009, resulting in a reversal of this portion of the write-down. These amounts were included in cost of sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the North American Other segment.
Additional depreciation expense of $0.7 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2009 to reflect the shorter remaining useful life of the assets. These amounts were included in cost of sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the North American Other segment.
Special charges of $0.3 million and $0.7 million in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, included various legal, consulting and employee related costs. These amounts were included in special charges on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the North American Other and North American Glass segments.
Other (expense) income on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations included charges of $0.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 for the change in fair value of ineffective natural gas hedges related to our Syracuse China operation. These amounts were included in the North American Other segment.
The following table summarizes the facility closure charges in the second quarter and first half of 2009:

We expect the total charges for each of these activities to approximate the charges incurred to date.
6. Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the United States statutory tax rate primarily due to changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions, tax planning structures and changes in tax laws. At June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 we had $1.2 million and $2.3 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest and penalties. The decrease of $1.1 million was primarily attributable to an income tax settlement during the second quarter, offset by additions based on tax positions related to the current year.
In addition, SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxesrequires that the provision for/(benefit from) income taxes be allocated between continuing operations and other categories of earnings (such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive income) for each tax jurisdiction. In periods in which there is a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, the tax provision is first allocated to the other categories of earnings. A related tax benefit is then recorded in continuing operations. Included in our income tax provision are tax benefits of $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $3.9 million for the first six months of 2009 related to these intra-period allocations. Depending upon the level of our future earnings and losses and their impact on other comprehensive income, it is possible that these tax adjustments may change or even reverse in future periods.
Further, our current and future provision for (benefit from) income taxes for 2009 is significantly impacted by valuation allowances. In the United States and China, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred income tax assets. In addition, partial valuation allowances have been recorded in the Netherlands, Portugal and Mexico. In assessing the need for recording a valuation allowance we weigh all available positive and negative evidence. Examples of the evidence we consider are cumulative losses in recent years, losses expected in early future years, a history of potential tax benefits expiring unused, whether there was an unusual, infrequent, or extraordinary item to be considered. We intend to maintain these allowances until it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized.
7. Pension and Non-pension Postretirement Benefits
We have pension plans covering the majority of our employees. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and job grade and length of service for hourly employees. Our policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. In addition, we have an unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) that covers salaried U.S.-based employees of Libbey hired before January 1, 2006. The U.S. pension plans cover the salaried U.S.-based
19
employees of Libbey hired before January 1, 2006 and most hourly U.S.-based employees. The non-U.S. pension plans cover the employees of our wholly owned subsidiaries Royal Leerdam and Crisa. The Crisa plan is not funded.
The components of our net pension expense, including the SERP, are as follows:

|
We incurred pension settlement charges of $0.2 million and $2.7 million during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. The pension settlement charges were triggered by excess lump sum distributions to retirees.
We provide certain retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering our U.S and Canadian salaried and non-union hourly employees hired before January 1, 2004 and a majority of our union hourly employees. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Benefits for most hourly retirees are determined by collective bargaining. The U.S. non-pension postretirement plans cover the hourly and salaried U.S.-based employees of Libbey. During the second quarter of 2008, we amended our U.S. non-pension postretirement plans to cover employees and retirees of Syracuse China previously covered under a multi-employer plan. This plan amendment was effective September 1, 2008. The non-U.S. non-pension postretirement plans cover the retirees and active employees of Libbey who are located in Canada. The postretirement benefit plans are not funded.
The provision for our non-pension postretirement benefit expense consists of the following:

In 2009, we expect to utilize approximately $18.0 million to fund our pension plans and pay for non-pension postretirement benefits. Of that amount, $4.0 million and $8.1 million was utilized in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009.

These amounts would have been dilutive if not for the net loss. |
When applicable, diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive impact of in-the-money employee stock options, which are calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the tax-effected proceeds that hypothetically would be received from the exercise of all in-the-money options are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.
9. Derivatives
We utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge certain interest rate risks associated with our long-term debt, commodity price risks associated with forecasted future natural gas requirements and foreign exchange rate risks associated with transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. Most of these derivatives, except for certain natural gas contracts originally designated to expected purchases at Syracuse China and the foreign currency contracts, qualify for hedge accounting since the hedges are highly effective, and we have designated and documented contemporaneously the hedging relationships involving these derivative instruments. Changes in fair value of these hedges are recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). While we intend to continue to meet the conditions for hedge accounting, if hedges do not qualify as highly effective or if we do not believe that the forecasted transactions will occur, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives used as hedges will be reflected in our earnings. All of these contracts were accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS 133).
We use Interest Rate Protection Agreements (Rate Agreements) to manage our exposure to variable interest rates. These Rate Agreements effectively convert a portion of our borrowings from variable rate debt to fixed-rate debt, thus reducing the impact of
21
interest rate changes on future results. These instruments are valued using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future variable cash receipts and the discounted future fixed cash payments. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves.
We also use commodity futures contracts related to forecasted future North American natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts and other derivatives is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid due to adverse price movements in the underlying commodity. We consider our forecasted natural gas requirements in determining the quantity of natural gas to hedge. We combine the forecasts with historical observations to establish the percentage of forecast eligible to be hedged, typically ranging from 40 percent to 70 percent of our anticipated requirements, up to eighteen months in the future. The fair values of these instruments are determined from market quotes. Certain of our natural gas futures contracts are now classified as ineffective, as the forecasted transactions are not probable of occurring due to the closure of our Syracuse China facility in April 2009.
Our foreign currency exposure arises from transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, primarily associated with anticipated purchases of new equipment or net investment in a foreign operation. The fair values of these instruments are determined from market quotes. The values of these derivatives will change over time as cash receipts and payments are made and as market conditions change.
Notional Amounts
As of June 30, 2009, we had commodity contracts for 3,810,000 million British Thermal Units (BTUs) of natural gas. We also had Interest Rate Protection Agreements for $200.0 million of our variable rate debt, as discussed in Note 4. At December 31, 2008, we had Interest Rate Protection Agreements for $200.0 million of variable rate debt and commodity contracts for 5,280,000 million BTUs of natural gas. In January 2008, we entered into a series of foreign currency contracts to sell Canadian dollars. As of June 30, 2008, we had contracts for 4.5 million Canadian dollars. During April 2007, we entered into a foreign currency contract for 212.0 million pesos for a contractual payment due to Vitro in January 2008. As of December 31, 2008, all of these currency contracts had expired.

Change in value of derivatives
Most of our derivatives qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges (except certain natural gas contracts originally designated to expected purchases at Syracuse China) at June 30, 2009. Hedge accounting is applied only when the derivative is deemed to be highly
22
effective at offsetting changes in fair values or anticipated cash flows of the hedged item or transaction. For hedged forecasted transactions, hedge accounting is discontinued if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable to occur, and any previously deferred gains or losses would be recorded to earnings immediately. The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognized in current earnings.

Certain of our natural gas futures contracts are now classified as ineffective, as the forecasted transactions are not probable of occurring due to the closure of our Syracuse China facility in April 2009 as well as decreased production at some of our plants. As a result, we recorded a credit of $0.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2009 and expense of $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Expenses reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to earnings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 were immaterial.
The following table provides the impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations from derivatives no longer designated as cash flow hedges:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
As the natural gas contracts mature, the accumulated gains (losses) for the respective contracts are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to current expense in cost of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Similarly, as fixed interest payments are made pursuant to the interest rate protection agreements, they are recorded together with the related receipt of variable interest receipts, the payment of contractual interest expense to the banks and the reclassification of accumulated gains (losses) from accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate agreements. Based on our current valuation, we estimate that accumulated losses currently carried in accumulated other comprehensive income that will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve months will result in $14.0 million of expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Gains and losses for derivatives which were not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in current earnings as follows:

We do not believe we are exposed to more than a nominal amount of credit risk in our interest rate and natural gas hedges, as the counterparties are established financial institutions. The counterparties are rated A+ or better for the Interest Rate Protection Agreements and BBB or better for the other derivative agreements as of June 30, 2009, by Standard and Poor’s.

12. Segments
Our segments are described as follows:
• | | North American Glass—includes sales of glass tableware from subsidiaries throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico. |
|
• | | North American Other—includes sales of ceramic dinnerware; metal tableware, hollowware and serveware; and plastic items from subsidiaries in the United States. |
|
• | | International—includes worldwide sales of glass tableware from subsidiaries outside the United States, Canada and Mexico. |
Some operating segments were aggregated to arrive at the disclosed reportable segments. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We do not have any customers who represent 10 percent or more of total net sales. We evaluate the performance of our segments based upon net sales and Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT). Intersegment sales are consummated at arm’s length and are reflected in eliminations in the table below.

13. Fair Value
We adopted SFAS 157 as of January 1, 2008, but we had not applied the statement to non-recurring, nonfinancial assets and liabilities. We adopted SFAS 157 for nonrecurring, nonfinancial assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 157 had no impact on our fair value measurements. SFAS 157 defines 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. SFAS 157 establishes 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. |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value at June 30, 2009 | | Fair Value at December 31, 2008 |

The fair values of our interest rate protection agreements are based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future variable cash receipts and the discounted future fixed cash payments. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. The fair values of our commodity futures natural gas contracts are determined using observable market inputs. Since these inputs are observable in active markets over the terms that the instruments are held, the derivatives are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy. We also evaluate Company and counterparty risk in determining fair values. The total derivative liability is recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with $14.0 million in derivative liability and $2.9 million in other long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2009. As of December 31, 2008 $17.9 million was recorded in derivative liability and $3.7 million in other long-term liabilities.
The commodity futures natural gas contracts and interest rate protection agreements are hedges of either recorded assets or liabilities or anticipated transactions. Changes in values of the underlying hedged assets and liabilities or anticipated transactions are not reflected in the above table.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. These factors are discussed in “Risk Factors” under Item 1A of “Part II — Other Information”.
Overview
Market conditions continue to be challenging. While comparisons to the record setting sales performance of the second quarter and first half of 2008 are dramatic, we have begun to see the results of our cash flow enhancements outlined on February 11, 2009. We have reduced capital spending, reduced production levels in response to the reduced demand in our markets, reduced our overall costs and reduced our investment in inventories during the first half of the year, a period which historically has seen a buildup of inventories in anticipation of normally higher sales in the second half of the year. The decreased production levels have caused pressure on our margins as certain fixed costs could not be reduced to the same extent as sales, but we have placed a higher priority on liquidity in the near term. We continue to see improvements in the trend of our retail business; however, at this time we expect that the eventual recovery of our other markets will occur slowly. We will continue to monitor our customer markets, and as the economy stabilizes we are prepared to adjust production levels accordingly, which should lead to improved profitability as the margin pressures described above begin to reverse.

Net Sales
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 12.9 percent to $195.8 million from record second quarter sales of $224.8 million in the year-ago quarter. North American Glass net shipments decreased 11.1 percent to $137.7 million from $155.0 million in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in sales was primarily attributable to a 27.9 percent decrease in shipments to Crisa customers (15.1 percent excluding the currency impact of the Mexican peso.) In addition, a 7.1 percent decline in shipments to U.S and Canadian foodservice customers was offset by a 6.9 percent increase in shipments to U.S. retail glassware customers. North American Other net
35
sales decreased 19.2 percent due to a decline in shipments of World Tableware, Syracuse China and Traex products. International net sales decreased 17.3 percent compared to the year-ago quarter as a 4.6% increase in shipments to Libbey China customers was offset by unfavorable currency impact in Europe, which caused slightly more than half of the overall decline due to the weaker euro when compared to the U.S. dollar. Excluding the currency impact, International sales decreased 7.9 percent, as shipments to Royal Leerdam and Crisal glassware customers declined when compared to the prior year period.
Gross Profit
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, gross profit decreased by $7.9 million, or 18.7 percent, to $34.3 million, compared to $42.2 million in the year-ago quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 17.5 percent, compared to 18.8 percent in the year-ago quarter. The unfavorable mix and lower level of net sales, particularly in Mexico, resulted in $3.7 million of the decline in gross profit, and lower production activity offset by reduced manufacturing costs contributed another $3.3 million to the decrease as a significant portion of these expenses are fixed, and could not be reduced to the same extent as net sales. Also, an unfavorable currency impact resulted in $6.8 million of the decline in gross profit. These unfavorable items were offset by a reduction of $5.0 million in our distribution costs.
Income From Operations
Income from operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased $7.2 million, to $11.5 million, compared to $18.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales decreased to 5.9 percent in the second quarter 2009, compared to 8.3 percent in the year-ago quarter. The decline in income from operations is a result of lower gross profit and gross profit margin (discussed above), and a $0.3 million special charge related to the Syracuse China shutdown, offset by a decrease of $1.4 million in selling, general and administrative expenses. The $1.4 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was caused primarily by a favorable currency impact of $1.2 million.
Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT)
Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) decreased by $5.1 million, from $19.3 million in 2008, to $14.2 million in 2009. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 7.3 percent in the second quarter 2009, compared to 8.6 percent in the year-ago quarter. Key contributors to the decrease in EBIT compared to the year-ago quarter are the same as those discussed above under Income From Operations, offset by a favorable swing in foreign currency translation versus the prior year quarter of approximately $1.6 million.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization (EBITDA)
EBITDA decreased by 18.9 percent to $24.8 million in the second quarter of 2009 from $30.5 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percentage of net sales, EBITDA was 12.6 percent for the second quarter 2009, compared to 13.6 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key contributors to the decrease in EBITDA were those factors discussed above under Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT). In addition, EBITDA does not include the benefit of a $0.7 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses, approximately half of which is due to the shutdown of our Syracuse China operations, with the remainder being due to our lower rate of capital spending.
Net Income (Loss) and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
We recorded net income of $2.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2009, compared to a net loss of $(2.1) million, or $(0.14) per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Net income (loss) as a percentage of net sales was 1.4 percent in the second quarter 2009, compared to (0.9) percent in the year-ago quarter. The effective tax rate provided a 181.1 percent benefit for the quarter compared to a 225.9 percent expense in the year-ago quarter, due primarily to a $3.6 million tax benefit related to the required intra-period tax allocation between loss from operations and other comprehensive income in the U.S. in the current quarter and a $1.5 million benefit related to adjustments in tax reserves due to the completion of a U.S. federal income tax examination, both recorded in the current quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate also changed from the year-ago quarter as a result of valuation allowances in the United States, the Netherlands, and Portugal. Further, changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions, tax planning structures and changes in tax laws have also impacted the effective tax rate, and could cause more volatility in the future.

Net Sales
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 14.2 percent to $353.7 million from sales of $412.1 million in the year-ago period. North American Glass net sales decreased 12.7 percent, due primarily to a decrease of 28.5 percent in shipments to Crisa customers and a decline of 5.9 percent in shipments to U.S. and Canadian foodservice glassware customers. Approximately 13.0 percent, or nearly half of the 28.5 percent reduction at Crisa, was related to the devaluation of the Mexican peso. Due in part to a strong second quarter, our U.S. Retail sales were nearly equal to the record sales levels of the first half of last year. North American Other net sales decreased 19.4 percent due to a decline in shipments of World Tableware, Syracuse China and Traex products. International net sales decreased 18.9 percent compared to the year-ago period, including 9.5 percent due to unfavorable currency impact which resulted primarily from the declining strength of the euro when compared to the U.S. dollar. Excluding the currency impact, International sales decreased 9.4 percent, as shipments to Royal Leerdam and Crisal glassware customers declined when compared to the prior year period.
Gross Profit
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, gross profit decreased by $27.5 million, or 37.9 percent, to $45.0 million, compared to $72.5 million in the year-ago period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 12.7 percent, compared to 17.6 percent in the year-ago period. The unfavorable mix and lower level of net sales, particularly in the U.S., resulted in $9.2 million of the decline in gross profit, and lower production activity offset by reduced manufacturing costs contributed another $14.0 million to the decrease, as a significant portion of these expenses are fixed and could not be reduced to the same extent as net sales. Also, an unfavorable currency impact resulted in $11.8 million of the decline in gross profit. Additional depreciation expense of $0.7 million was recorded to reflect the shorter remaining useful life of the assets and an additional $1.1 million of manufacturing cost was recorded for an inventory write-down related to the closure of our Syracuse China facility. See note 5 for more discussion about these charges. These unfavorable items were offset by a reduction of $7.9 million in our distribution costs.
(Loss) Income From Operations
(Loss) Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $28.8 million, to a loss of $(0.6) million, compared to income of $28.2 million in the year-ago period. (Loss) Income from operations as a percentage of net sales decreased to (0.2) percent in the first half of 2009, compared to 6.8 percent in the year-ago period. The decline in income from operations is a result of lower gross profit (discussed above), combined with slightly higher selling, general and administrative expenses and a $0.7 million special charge related to the Syracuse China shutdown. The $0.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was caused by a $2.7 million pension settlement charge arising from lump sum payments to retirees during the first six months of 2009 and
37
the 2008 reversal of $1.3 million related to favorable rulings in connection with an outstanding dispute regarding a warehouse lease in Mexico. These increases in selling general and administrative expenses were offset by favorable currency impact of $2.1 million and a decrease in commission expense of $1.3 million.
Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT)
Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) decreased by $27.4 million, from $29.5 million in 2008 to $2.2 million in 2009. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 0.6 percent in the first half of 2009, compared to 7.2 percent in the year-ago period. Key contributors to the decrease in EBIT compared to the year-ago period are the same as those discussed above under (Loss) Income From Operations offset by a favorable swing in foreign currency translation versus the prior year period of approximately $0.9 million.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization (EBITDA)
EBITDA decreased by 53.1 percent to $24.4 million in the first half of 2009 from income of $52.1 million in the year-ago period. As a percentage of net sales, EBITDA was 6.9 percent for the first half of 2009, compared to 12.6 percent in the year-ago period. The key contributors to the decrease in EBITDA were those factors discussed above under Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT). In addition, EBITDA does not include the benefit of a $0.3 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses.
Net Loss and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
We recorded a net loss of $(25.2) million, or $(1.70) per diluted share, in the first six months of 2009, compared to a net loss of $(5.6) million, or $(0.38) per diluted share, in the year-ago period. Net loss as a percentage of net sales was (7.1) percent in the first half of 2009, compared to (1.4) percent in the year-ago period. In addition, the effective tax rate was 22.5 percent for the period compared to negative 6.9 percent in the year-ago period, due primarily to a $3.9 million tax benefit related to the required intra-period tax allocation between loss from operations and other comprehensive income in the U.S. in the first six months of 2009 and a $1.5 million benefit related to adjustments in tax reserves due to the completion of a U.S. federal income tax examination. The Company’s effective tax rate changed from the year-ago quarter also as a result of valuation allowances in the United States, the Netherlands, and Portugal. Further, changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions, tax planning structures and changes in tax laws have also impacted the effective tax rate.

Segment Results of Operations — Second Quarter 2009 Compared to Second Quarter 2008
North American Glass
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 11.1 percent to $137.7 million from $155.0 million in the year-ago quarter. Of the decrease in net sales, approximately 10.8 percent was attributable to decreased shipments to Crisa’s customers and 4.3 percent was attributable to decreased shipments to U.S. and Canadian foodservice glassware customers offset by a 1.3 percent increase in sales to U.S. and Canadian retail glassware customers. Of the 10.8 percent attributable to decreased shipments of Crisa product, 5.0 percent is related to an unfavorable currency impact.
EBIT decreased to $11.8 million for the second quarter 2009, compared to $14.9 million for the year-ago quarter. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 8.5 percent in the second quarter 2009, compared to 9.6 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key factors in the decline in EBIT compared to the year-ago quarter were $1.2 million due to the decreased production activity offset by lower manufacturing costs, $1.7 million due to an unfavorable sales mix and an unfavorable currency impact from the devaluation of the Mexican peso of $5.4 million. The factors contributing to the decrease in EBIT were partially offset by decreases of $3.9 million in distribution costs, an improvement of $1.4 million primarily due to favorable foreign currency translation gains.
North American Other
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, net sales declined 19.2 percent to $24.3 million from $30.1 million in the year-ago quarter. Components of the total decrease in net sales were declines of approximately 11.3 percent in shipments of Syracuse China products, approximately 5.5 percent in shipments of Traex products and approximately 4.0 percent in shipments of World Tableware products.
EBIT declined by $0.2 million for the second quarter of 2009, compared to the year-ago quarter. EBIT as a percentage of net sales increased to 14.1 percent in the second quarter of 2009, compared to 12.1 percent in the year-ago quarter due to lower production and purchasing levels in the segment. The key contributors to the decreased EBIT were decreased sales, which caused an unfavorable $3.8

million impact. This was offset by decreases of $1.2 million in manufacturing costs, $1.1 million in distribution costs and $0.9 million in SG&A expenses. These reductions in costs were primarily the result of the April 2009 closure of our Syracuse China facility.
International
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 17.3 percent to $34.5 million from $41.8 million in the year-ago quarter. Of the total decrease in net sales, 10.6 percent was related to the currency impact of a weaker euro. The majority of the remaining decrease in net sales was related to decreased shipments to Royal Leerdam and Crisal customers, while sales to customers of Libbey China were essentially flat as a component of the total International comparison.
EBIT declined by $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2009, to $(0.9) million from $0.7 million in the year-ago quarter. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to (2.7) percent in the second quarter 2009, compared to 1.7 percent in the year-ago quarter. Decreased net sales and production activity offset by lower manufacturing costs were responsible for $0.5 million and $1.2 million of the EBIT decline, respectively. In addition, EBIT was negatively affected by an unfavorable currency impact from the euro of $0.4 million. These factors were offset by a $0.4 million increase in other income related to a government grant.
Segment Results of Operations — First Six Months 2009 Compared to First Six Months 2008
North American Glass
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 12.7 percent to $246.5 million from $282.5 million in the year-ago period. Of the total decrease in net sales, approximately 11.0 percent was attributable to decreased shipments to Crisa’s customers and 3.8 percent was attributable to decreased shipments to U.S. and Canadian foodservice glassware customers. The U.S. retail channel delivered sales essentially equal to the all-time record retail sales performance during the first six months of 2008. Of the 11.0 percent attributable to decreased shipments of Crisa product, 5.0 percent is related to an unfavorable currency impact.
EBIT decreased to $3.1 million for the first half of 2009, compared to $22.0 million for the year-ago period. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 1.3 percent in the first half of 2009, compared to 7.8 percent in the year-ago period. The key factors in the decline in EBIT compared to the year-ago period were $9.0 million due to the decreased production activity offset by lower manufacturing costs, $5.7 million due to an unfavorable sales mix and an unfavorable currency impact on EBIT from the devaluation of the Mexican peso of $9.1 million. In addition, EBIT was negatively impacted by a $3.3 million increase in selling, general and administrative expense, which in turn was caused primarily by a $2.7 million pension settlement charge arising from lump sum payments to retirees during the first six months of 2009 and a one-time reversal of $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2008 related to favorable rulings in connection with an outstanding dispute regarding a warehouse lease in Mexico, offset by decreases of $0.9 million in commission expense. The factors contributing to the decrease in EBIT were partially offset by decreases of $6.5 million in distribution costs and favorable currency translation gains of $1.5 million in other income when compared to the prior year period.
North American Other
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, net sales declined 19.4 percent to $45.7 million from $56.7 million in the year-ago period. Components of the total decrease in net sales were declines of approximately 8.1 percent in shipments of Syracuse China products, approximately 6.9 percent in shipments of World Tableware products and approximately 4.8 percent in shipments of Traex products.
EBIT declined by $5.1 million for the first half of 2009, compared to the year-ago period. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 5.1 percent in the first half of 2009, compared to 13.2 percent in the year-ago period. The key contributor to the decreased EBIT was decreased sales, which had an unfavorable $8.1 million impact. Production costs included a $0.7 million special charge due to additional depreciation expenses recorded to reflect the shorter remaining useful life of the assets at our Syracuse China facility and a $1.1 million write-down of raw materials and work in process inventory also related to the shut down of our Syracuse China facility. This was offset by decreases of $1.2 million in other production costs and purchased product, $1.4 million in distribution costs, and a decrease of $1.2 million in SG&A expenses, driven by lower selling and marketing expenses.
International
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 18.9 percent to $63.4 million from $78.2 million in the year-ago period. Of the total decrease in net sales, 10.6 percent was related to the currency impact of a weaker euro. The majority of the remaining decrease in net sales was related to decreased shipments to Royal Leerdam and Crisal customers, while sales to customers of Libbey
40
China were essentially flat as a component of the total International comparison.
EBIT declined by $3.4 million for the first half of 2009 to $(3.3) million, compared to $0.1 million in the year-ago period. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to (5.2) percent in the first half of 2009, compared to 0.1 percent in the year-ago period. Decreased net sales and production activity offset by lower manufacturing costs were responsible for $0.3 million and $2.3 million of the EBIT decline, respectively, as we lowered production levels in response to lower sales and to manage inventory levels. In addition, EBIT was negatively impacted by an unfavorable currency impact from the euro of $0.6 million.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flows
Cash and Equivalents
At June 30, 2009, our cash balance was $24.1 million, an increase of $10.8 million from $13.3 million at December 31, 2008. The increase was primarily due to an increase in our free cash flow offset by payments on our ABL facility.

Working capital (as defined above) was $182.6 million at June 30, 2009, a decrease of $24.3 million from December 31, 2008. This decrease is due primarily to lower inventories, which resulted from our continued focus on our cash management efforts to increase cash flow through reductions in working capital, and lower production activity. Partially offsetting our lower inventories is an increase in accounts receivable, resulting from our second quarter sales increase. Working capital as a percentage of net sales decreased from 25.5 percent from December 31, 2008 to 24.3 percent at June 30, 2009.

We had total borrowings of $546.8 million at June 30, 2009, compared to total borrowings of $554.9 million at December 31, 2008. The $8.1 million decrease in borrowings was primarily the result of the repayment of borrowings under our ABL facility, offset by an increase in our PIK Notes.
Of our total indebtedness, $184.3 million, approximately 33.7 percent, is subject to fluctuating interest rates at June 30, 2009. A change of one percentage point in such rates would result in a change in interest expense of approximately $1.8 million on an annual basis.
Included in interest expense is the amortization of discounts, warrants and financing fees. These items amounted to $1.2 million and $2.5 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and $1.3 million and $2.6 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, respectively.

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $24.7 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $5.1 million in the year-ago quarter, or an improvement of $19.6 million. The major factors impacting cash flow from operations were a $20.4 million improvement in working capital performance compared to the prior year quarter, as cash flow improvements of $21.0 million from inventory and $1.2 million from accounts receivable were more than enough to offset the unfavorable swing of $1.8 million in cash flow from accounts payable, reflecting our efforts to improve liquidity during the current economic downturn. The cash generated from these cash flow improvements was utilized to pay down debt and increase our cash balance.
Our net cash used in investing activities decreased to $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to $8.3 million in the year-ago period, primarily as a result of decreased capital expenditures in our North American Glass and International segments.
Net cash used in financing activities was $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $13.5 million in the year-ago quarter, or a swing of $26.4 million. During the second quarter of 2008, we utilized $14.3 million more of our capacity on the ABL Facility to fund our operating needs, while we made $10.8 million of repayments on that facility in the second quarter of 2009.
Our free cash flow was $20.1 million during the second quarter 2009, compared to a use of cash of $3.2 million in the year-ago quarter, an improvement of $23.3 million. The primary contributor to this change was the improvement in cash flow from operations and reduced capital expenditures in the current period, as discussed above.

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $39.1 million in the first half of 2009, compared to net cash used by operating activities of $23.1 million in the year-ago period, or an improvement of $62.2 million. The major factors impacting cash flow from operations were a $51.2 million improvement in working capital performance compared to the prior year period as cash flow improvements of $43.3 million from inventory, $6.0 million from accounts payable and $1.9 million from accounts receivable reflected our efforts to improve liquidity during the current economic downturn. Further improvement in net cash provided by operating activities is the result of the final $19.6 million payment to Vitro made in 2008 related to the 2006 Crisa acquisition. These improvements were offset by cash required to fund our losses in the current period and pay down debt.
Our net cash used in investing activities decreased to $9.5 million in the first half of 2009, compared to $17.6 million in the year-ago period, primarily as a result of decreased capital expenditures in our North American Glass and International segments.
Net cash used in financing activities was $18.8 million in the first half of 2009, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $21.8 million in the year-ago period, or a swing of $40.6 million. During the first half of 2008, we utilized $23.4 million more of our capacity on the ABL Facility to fund our operating needs, while we made $16.7 million of repayments on that facility in the first half of 2009.
Our free cash flow was $29.6 million during the first half 2009, compared to a use of cash of $40.6 million in the year-ago period, an improvement of $70.3 million. The primary contributor to this change was the improvement in cash flow from operations and reduced capital expenditures in the current period.

Derivatives
We have Interest Rate Protection Agreements (Rate Agreements) with respect to $200.0 million of debt as a means to manage our exposure to fluctuating interest rates. The Rate Agreements effectively convert this portion of our long-term borrowings from variable rate debt to fixed-rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future income. The fixed interest rate for our borrowings related to the Rate Agreements at June 30, 2009, excluding applicable fees, is 5.24 percent per year and the total interest rate, including applicable fees, is 12.24 percent per year. These Rate Agreements expire on December 1, 2009. Total remaining Senior Notes not covered by the Rate Agreements have fluctuating interest rates with a weighted average rate of 8.26 percent per year at June 30, 2009. If the counterparties to these Rate Agreements were to fail to perform, these Rate Agreements would no longer protect us from interest rate fluctuations. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. All counterparties were rated A+ or better as of June 30, 2009, by Standard and Poor’s.
The fair market value for the Rate Agreements at June 30, 2009, was a $(4.0) million liability. At December 31, 2008, the fair market value of these Rate Agreements was a $(6.8) million liability. The fair value of the Rate Agreements is based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future variable cash receipts and the discounted future fixed cash payments. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. We do not expect to cancel these agreements and expect them to mature as originally contracted.
We also use commodity futures contracts related to forecasted future North American natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts is to reduce the effects of fluctuations and adverse price movements in the underlying commodity. We consider our forecasted natural gas requirements in determining the quantity of natural gas to hedge. We combine the forecasts with historical observations to establish the percentage of forecast eligible to be hedged, typically ranging from 40 percent to 70 percent of our anticipated requirements up to eighteen months in the future. The fair values of these instruments is determined from market quotes. At June 30, 2009, we had commodity futures contracts for 3,810,000 million British Thermal Units (BTUs) of natural gas with a fair market value of a $(12.9) million liability. We have hedged approximately 40 percent of forecasted transactions through December 2010. At December 31, 2008, we had commodity futures contracts for 5,280,000 million BTUs of natural gas with a fair market value of a $(14.9) million liability. The counterparties for these derivatives were rated BBB or better as of June 30, 2009, by Standard & Poor’s.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Historically, cash flows generated from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL facility have allowed us to meet our cash requirements, including capital expenditures and working capital needs. Remaining unused availability on the ABL Facility was $56.6 million at June 30, 2009 and $44.6 million at December 31, 2008. In addition, our cash and cash equivalents balance of $24.1 million at June 30, 2009 is available for our short term financing needs. We were impacted by recessionary pressures in 2008, especially during the fourth quarter of the year, and the first half of 2009, and we anticipate that the global economic recession will continue throughout 2009 and perhaps beyond. In addition, interest on our PIK Notes will be payable in cash beginning December 1, 2009. We began taking a number of steps to enhance our liquidity in 2008 and have continued with further steps in 2009 (including those announced in February, 2009). These initiatives were expected to result in cash flow improvements in the range of $46 million to $50 million for 2009. These initiatives have been implemented, and we are beginning to see the results in our cash flow. These amounts included a reduction of $22 million to $24 million in capital expenditures. We are on course to achieve the higher end of that range, as our capital expenditures are currently expected to reach $20 million for the year, compared to the $45.7 million spent in 2008. However, if cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or arrange additional debt financing. Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be volatile. The credit and capital markets remain challenging. These issues, along with significant write-offs in the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk and the current weak economic conditions, have made it difficult, and will likely continue to make it difficult, to obtain funding in future periods. If cash from operations and cash available from our ABL Facility are not sufficient to meet our needs, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts and/or on acceptable terms in the near future or when our debt obligations reach maturity. Our ABL Facility expires in December 2010, the Senior Notes expire in June 2011, and the PIK Notes expire in December 2011. Furthermore, because of the current price of our stock, we cannot anticipate that it would be desirable to sell additional equity, even if we were able to do so. However, based upon our operating plans and current forecast expectations (including expectations that the global economy will not deteriorate further) we anticipate that we will generate positive cash flow from operations and, if necessary, have sufficient cash availability from our ABL Facility to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We sometimes refer to data derived from condensed consolidated financial information but not required by GAAP to be presented in financial statements. Certain of these data are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation G. We believe that non-GAAP data provide investors with a more complete understanding of underlying results in our core business and trends. In addition, we use non-GAAP data internally to assess performance. Although we believe that the non-GAAP financial measures presented enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.

|
We define EBIT as net income (loss) before interest expense and income taxes. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net income.
We believe that EBIT is an important supplemental measure for investors in evaluating operating performance in that it provides insight into company profitability. Libbey’s senior management uses this measure internally to measure profitability. EBIT also allows for a measure of comparability to other companies with different capital and legal structures, which accordingly may be subject to different interest rates and effective tax rates.
The non-GAAP measure of EBIT does have certain limitations. It does not include interest expense, which is a necessary and ongoing part of our cost structure resulting from debt incurred to expand operations. Because this is a material and recurring item, any measure that excludes it has a material limitation. EBIT may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net income.
We believe that EBITDA is an important supplemental measure for investors in evaluating operating performance in that it provides insight into company profitability and cash flow. Libbey’s senior management uses this measure internally to measure profitability and to set performance targets for managers. It also has been used regularly as one of the means of publicly providing guidance on possible future results. EBITDA also allows for a measure of comparability to other companies with different capital and legal structures, which accordingly may be subject to different interest rates and effective tax rates, and to companies that may incur different depreciation and amortization expenses or impairment charges.
The non-GAAP measure of EBITDA does have certain limitations. It does not include interest expense, which is a necessary and ongoing part of our cost structure resulting from debt incurred to expand operations. EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization expenses. Because these are material and recurring items, any measure that excludes them has a material limitation. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures adjusted for proceeds from asset sales and other. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.
We believe that free cash flow is important supplemental information for investors in evaluating cash flow performance in that it provides insight into the cash flow available to fund such things as discretionary debt service, acquisitions and other strategic investment opportunities. It isameasure of performance we use to internally evaluate the overall performance of the business.

We define working capital as net accounts receivable plus net inventories less accounts payable.
We believe that working capital is important supplemental information for investors in evaluating liquidity in that it provides insight into the availability of net current resources to fund our ongoing operations. Working capital is a measure used by management in internal evaluations of cash availability and operational performance.

Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Currency
We are exposed to market risks due to changes in currency values, although the majority of our revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. The currency market risks include devaluations and other major currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, euro, RMB or Mexican peso that could reduce the cost competitiveness of our products compared to foreign competition.
Interest Rates
We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in interest rates on our floating debt and have entered into Interest Rate Protection Agreements (Rate Agreements) with respect to $200.0 million of debt as a means to manage our exposure to fluctuating interest rates. The Rate Agreements effectively convert this portion of our long-term borrowings from variable rate debt to fixed-rate
46
debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future income. We had $184.3 million of debt subject to fluctuating interest rates at June 30, 2009. A change of one percentage point in such rates would result in a change in interest expense of approximately $1.8 million on an annual basis. If the counterparties to these Rate Agreements were to fail to perform, we would no longer be protected from interest rate fluctuations by these Rate Agreements. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. All interest rate swap counterparties were rated A+ or better as of June 30, 2009, by Standard and Poor’s.
Natural Gas
We are also exposed to market risks associated with changes in the price of natural gas. We use commodity futures contracts related to forecasted future North American natural gas requirements of our manufacturing operations. The objective of these futures contracts is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid and potential losses in earnings or cash flows from adverse price movements in the underlying natural gas commodity. We consider the forecasted natural gas requirements of our manufacturing operations in determining the quantity of natural gas to hedge. We combine the forecasts with historical observations to establish the percentage of forecast eligible to be hedged, typically ranging from 40 percent to 70 percent of our anticipated requirements up to eighteen months in the future. For our natural gas requirements that are not hedged, we are subject to changes in the price of natural gas, which affect our earnings. If the counterparties to these futures contracts were to fail to perform, we would no longer be protected from natural gas fluctuations by the futures contracts. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by these counterparties. All counterparties were rated BBB or better by Standard and Poor’s as of June 30, 2009.
Retirement Plans
We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the various capital markets. Changes in long-term interest rates affect the discount rate that is used to measure our benefit obligations and related expense. Changes in the equity and debt securities markets affect the performance of our pension plans asset performance and related pension expense. Sensitivity to these key market risk factors is as follows:
| • | | A change of 1 percent in the discount rate would change our total annual expense by approximately $1.9 million. |
|
| • | | A change of 1 percent in the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets would change annual pension expense by approximately $2.2 million. |
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) reports are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
There has been no change in our controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following factors are the most significant factors that can impact period-to-period comparisons and may affect the future performance of our businesses. New risks may emerge, and management cannot predict those risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance.
| • | | Our cost-reduction projects may not result in anticipated savings in operating costs. |
|
| • | | Slowdowns in the retail, travel, restaurant and bar, or entertainment industries, such as those caused by general economic downturns, terrorism, health concerns or strikes or bankruptcies within those industries, could reduce our revenues and production activity levels. |
|
| • | | If we have a fair value impairment in a business segment, net earnings and net worth could be materially adversely affected by a write down of goodwill or intangible assets. |
|
| • | | We face intense competition and competitive pressures that could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. |
|
| • | | International economic and political factors could affect demand for imports and exports, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely impacted as a result. |
|
| • | | We may not be able to effectively integrate future businesses we acquire. |
|
| • | | We may not be able to achieve the international growth contemplated by our strategic plan. |
|
| • | | Natural gas, the principal fuel we use to manufacture our products, is subject to fluctuating prices; fluctuations in natural gas prices could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. |
|
| • | | If we are unable to obtain sourced products or materials at favorable prices, our operating performance may be adversely affected. |
|
| • | | Charges related to our employee pension and postretirement welfare plans resulting from market risk and headcount realignment may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. |
|
| • | | Our business requires significant capital investment and maintenance expenditures that we may be unable to fulfill. |
|
| • | | Our business requires us to maintain a large fixed cost base that can affect our profitability. |
|
| • | | Unexpected equipment failures may lead to production curtailments or shutdowns. |
|
| • | | If our investments in new technology and other capital expenditures do not yield expected returns, our results of operations could be reduced. |
|
| • | | We rely on increasingly complex information systems for management of our manufacturing, distribution, sales and other functions. If our information systems fail to perform these functions adequately or if we experience an interruption in their operation, our business and results of operations could suffer. |
|
| • | | We may not be able to renegotiate collective bargaining agreements successfully when they expire; organized strikes or work |
48
| | | stoppages by unionized employees may have an adverse effect on our operating performance. |
| • | | We are subject to risks associated with operating in foreign countries. These risks could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. |
|
| • | | High levels of inflation and high interest rates in Mexico could adversely affect the operating results and cash flows of Crisa. |
|
| • | | Fluctuation of the currencies in which we conduct operations could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. |
|
| • | | Fluctuations in the value of the foreign currencies in which we operate relative to the U.S. dollar could reduce the cost competitiveness of our products or those of our subsidiaries. |
|
| • | | Devaluation or depreciation of, or governmental conversion controls over, the foreign currencies in which we operate could affect our ability to convert the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. |
|
| • | | If our hedges do not qualify as highly effective or if we do not believe that forecasted transactions would occur, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives used as hedges would be reflected in our earnings. |
|
| • | | We are subject to various environmental legal requirements and may be subject to new legal requirements in the future; these requirements could have a material adverse effect on our operations. |
|
| • | | We received notice from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that our stock was delisted before the start of trading on April 20, 2009. Our shares are now traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTC BB). There can be no assurance that we may be able to regain our listing on the NYSE or any other exchange. |
|
| • | | Our failure to protect our intellectual property or prevail in any intellectual property litigation could materially and adversely affect our competitive position, reduce revenue or otherwise harm our business. |
|
| • | | Our business may suffer if we do not retain our senior management. |
|
| • | | Payment of severance or retirement benefits earlier than anticipated could strain our cash flow. |
|
| • | | We may face a risk when we return to the market to refinance our debt as a result of the February, 2009 downgrade of the Company’s debt by Moody’s Investor Service. |
The following risk factor has been modified in response to an SEC comment:
| • | | Our high level of debt, as well as incurrence of additional debt, may limit our operating flexibility, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations. |
|
| | | We have a high degree of financial leverage. As of June 30, 2009, we had $543.0 million of debt outstanding, net of discounts and warrants. Of that amount: |
| • | | approximately $16.9 million consisted of debt under our ABL Facility, which is secured by a first-priority lien on our assets; |
|
| • | | approximately $306.0 million consisted of the Senior Secured Notes, which are secured by a second-priority lien on our collateral; |
|
| • | | approximately $160.9 million consisted of the PIK Notes, which are secured by a third-priority lien on our collateral; |
|
| • | | RMB 250 million (approximately $36.6 million) consisted of a loan made by China Construction Bank Corporation Langfang Economic Development Area Sub-Branch (“CCBC”), the entire proceeds of which we used to finance the construction of our Greenfield manufacturing facility in China that began operations in early 2007; |
|
| • | | RMB 50 million (approximately $7.3 million) consisted of a loan, which is fully drawn, made by |
49
| | | CCBC to finance the working capital needs of our China facility; and |
| • | | 11 million euro (approximately $15.5 million) consisted of a loan, which is fully drawn, made by Banco Espirito Santo, S.A. (“BES Euro Line”) to finance operational improvements associated with our Portuguese operations. |
Our ABL Facility provides for borrowings up to $150.0 million by Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe B.V. (a non-guarantor subsidiary). As a result of borrowing base limitations, the remaining unused availability under the ABL Facility at June 30, 2009 was $56.6 million.
Since we issued the PIK Notes in 2006, interest has been payable semi-annually through the issuance of additional PIK Notes. Commencing December 1, 2009, interest on the PIK Notes will be payable semi-annually in cash. The semi-annual cash interest payment that we are obligated to make on the PIK Notes on December 1, 2009 is approximately $12.9 million.
Our loan agreements, including our agreements governing the ABL Facility, the indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes and the indenture governing the PIK Notes, require us to comply with certain covenants. For example, our ABL Facility requires us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if the remaining unused availability under our ABL Facility is less than $15.0 million.
Although the respective indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes and the PIK Notes do not contain financial covenants, they do contain other covenants that limit our operational and financial flexibility, such as by limiting the additional indebtedness that we may incur, limiting certain business activities, investments and payments, and limiting our ability to dispose of certain assets.
Our agreements governing the ABL Facility, the Senior Secured Notes and the PIK Notes limit the additional indebtedness that we may incur, but we are permitted, subject to certain limitations, to incur additional debt in the future.
Our high degree of leverage, as well as the incurrence of additional debt, could have important consequences for our business, such as:
| • | | making it more difficult for us to satisfy our financial obligations, including with respect to the Senior Secured Notes and the PIK Notes; |
|
| • | | limiting our ability to make capital investments in order to expand our business; |
|
| • | | limiting our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing for working capital, capital expenditures, product development, debt service requirements, acquisitions or other purposes; |
|
| • | | limiting our ability to invest operating cash flow in our business and future business opportunities, because we use a substantial portion of these funds to service debt and because our covenants restrict the amount of our investments; and |
|
| • | | limiting our ability to withstand business and economic downturns and/or place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt, because of the high percentage of our operating cash flow that is dedicated to servicing our debt. |
Although we have taken a number of steps to enhance our liquidity to date in 2009 (including those announced in February 2009), if cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, if we cannot service our debt or if we fail to meet our covenants, we could have substantial liquidity problems. In those circumstances, we might have to sell assets, delay planned investments, obtain additional equity capital or restructure our debt. Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be volatile. The credit and capital markets remain challenging. These issues may make it difficult to obtain funding in future periods. If cash from operations and cash available from our ABL Facility are not sufficient to meet our needs, including our obligation to pay the cash interest on the PIK Notes that is payable on December 1, 2009, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts and/or on acceptable terms in the future or when our ABL Facility matures in December 2010. Furthermore, because of the current price of our stock, we cannot anticipate that it would be desirable to sell additional equity, even if we were able to do so.
In addition, our failure to comply with the covenants contained in our loan agreements could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all of our indebtedness.

(1) | | We announced on December 10, 2002, that our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 2,500,000 shares of our common stock in the open market and negotiated purchases. There is no expiration date for this plan. In 2003, 1,500,000 shares of our common stock were purchased for $38.9 million. No additional shares were purchased in 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005 or 2004. Our ABL Facility and the indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes and the PIK Notes significantly restrict our ability to repurchase additional shares. |
