1. Description of the Business
Libbey is the leading producer of glass tableware products in the Western Hemisphere, in addition to supplying 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 owned and operated a plastics plant in Wisconsin. On April 28, 2011, we sold substantially all of the assets of our plastics plant, Traex, to the Vollrath Company. See note 15 for a further discussion of this subsequent event. 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 at www.sec.gov.
Our shares are traded on the NYSE Amex exchange under the ticker symbol LBY.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
See our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 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 income (expense).

Table of Contents
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. Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification™ (FASB ASC) Topic 740, “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, China, the Netherlands and Portugal we have recorded valuation allowances against our deferred income tax assets.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
We account for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation”, and FASB ASC Topic 505-50, “Equity — Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. Stock-based compensation cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. FASB ASC Topics 718 and 505-50 apply to all of our outstanding unvested stock-based payment awards. Stock-based compensation expense charged to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010 was $0.8 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
New Accounting Standards
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures regarding the amounts transferring between the various Levels within the fair value hierarchy, and increased disclosures regarding the activities impacting the balance of items classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See note 13 for a description of the levels. In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies increases in existing disclosure requirements for classes of assets and liabilities carried at fair value, and regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to arrive at the fair value measurements for items classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The new disclosure requirements of ASU 2010-06 were effective for Libbey in the first quarter of 2010, except for certain disclosures regarding the activities within Level 3 fair value measurements, which were effective for Libbey in the first quarter of 2011. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not impact our disclosures to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as we do have any items classified as Level 3 nor amounts transferring between the various Levels.
In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades — A consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force” (“ASU 2010-13”). The provisions of ASU 2010-13 affect entities with equity awards that, because of their characteristics, have been classified as liabilities. This guidance applies to interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and did not impact our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as our stock awards are classified as equity.
In July 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-20, “Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosure about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” (“ASU 2010-20”). The amendments in this update affect all entities with financing receivables, generally excluding short-term trade accounts receivable or receivables measured at fair value or lower of cost or fair value. This update also requires additional disclosure of certain types of receivables, and disclosures of policies related to measurement and valuation of the receivables and related reserves. The effectiveness of this update was delayed until periods ending after June 15, 2011 by Update No. 2011-01. We do not expect the provisions of this update to have any impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-28, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU 2010-28”). ASU 2010-28 addresses the decision process involved in testing for impairment of goodwill when the carrying value of a reporting unit is zero or less. The provisions of this update are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2010. We do not expect the provisions of this update to have any impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or on our process of testing for potential impairment of goodwill.
In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-29, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU
8
Table of Contents
2010-29”). ASU 2010-29 clarifies the extent to which pro forma historical information must be prepared and presented in comparative financial statements for periods following a merger or acquisition. The amendments in this update specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. ASU 2010-29 also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. For Libbey, the required disclosures are effective for combinations with acquisition dates during or after 2011. The impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements will depend on the nature and timing of any potential future business combinations.
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.

4. Borrowings
As previously announced, on March 25, 2011, Libbey Glass redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million of its outstanding 10.0 percent Senior Secured Notes due 2015, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the terms of the New Notes Indenture. Pursuant to the terms of the New Notes Indenture, the redemption price for the Senior Secured Notes was 103.0 percent of the principal amount of the redeemed Senior Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At completion of the redemption, the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes outstanding was $360.0 million. In conjunction with this redemption, we recorded $2.8 million of expense, representing $1.2 million of an early call premium and $1.6 million for the write off of a pro rata amount of financing fees and discounts.
On February 8, 2010, we completed the refinancing of substantially all of the existing indebtedness of our wholly-owned subsidiaries Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe B.V. The refinancing included:
• | the entry into an amended and restated credit agreement with respect to our ABL Facility; | |
• | the issuance of $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 10.0 percent Senior Secured Notes of Libbey Glass due 2015; | |
• | the repurchase and cancellation of all of Libbey Glass’s then outstanding $306.0 million in aggregate principal amount of floating rate notes; and | |
• | the redemption of all of Libbey Glass’s then outstanding $80.4 million in aggregate principal amount 16.0 percent New PIK notes. |
We used the proceeds of the offering of the Senior Secured Notes, together with cash on hand, to fund the repurchase of the floating rate notes, the redemption of the New PIK notes and to pay certain related fees and expenses. Upon completion of the refinancing, we recorded a gain of $71.7 million related to the redemption of the New PIK notes, of which $70.2 million of this gain was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2010. This gain was partially offset by $13.4 million representing a write-off of bank fees, discounts and a call premium on the floating rate notes, resulting in a net gain of $58.3 million, of which $56.8 million of this gain was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2010 as shown on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement
Pursuant to the refinancing, Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 8, 2010 (ABL Facility), with a group of five financial institutions. The ABL Facility provides for borrowings of up to $110.0 million, subject to certain borrowing base limitations, reserves and outstanding letters of credit.
All borrowings under the ABL Facility are secured by:
• | a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the existing and future real and personal property of Libbey Glass and its domestic subsidiaries (the “Credit Agreement Priority Collateral”); | |
• | a first-priority security interest in: |
11
Table of Contents
• | 100 percent of the stock of Libbey Glass and 100 percent of the stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’ present and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries; | ||
• | 100 percent of the non-voting stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’ first-tier present and future foreign subsidiaries; and | ||
• | 65 percent of the voting stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’ first-tier present and future foreign subsidiaries |
• | a first priority security interest in substantially all proceeds and products of the property and assets described above; and | |
• | a second-priority security interest in substantially all of the owned real property, equipment and fixtures in the United States of Libbey Glass and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens (the “New Notes Priority Collateral”). |
Additionally, borrowings by Libbey Europe under the ABL Facility are secured by:
• | a first-priority lien on substantially all of the existing and future real and personal property of Libbey Europe and its Dutch subsidiaries; and | |
• | a first-priority security interest in: |
• | 100 percent of the stock of Libbey Europe and 100 percent of the stock of substantially all of the Dutch subsidiaries; and | ||
• | 100 percent (or a lesser percentage in certain circumstances) of the outstanding stock issued by the first tier foreign subsidiaries of Libbey Europe and its Dutch subsidiaries. |
Swing line borrowings are limited to $15.0 million, with swing line borrowings for Libbey Europe being limited to the US equivalent of $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 2.5 percent and 3.5 percent, respectively, at March 31, 2011. Libbey pays a quarterly Commitment Fee, as defined by the ABL Facility, on the total credit provided under the ABL Facility. The Commitment Fee was 0.75 percent at March 31, 2011. No financial covenants or compensating balances are required by the Agreement. Libbey Europe had no borrowings under the facility at March 31, 2011, while Libbey Glass had outstanding borrowings of $4.4 million, at an interest rate of 6.50 percent. There were no Libbey Glass or Libbey Europe borrowings under the facility at December 31, 2010. Interest is payable on the last day of the interest period, which can range from one month to six months depending on the maturity of each individual borrowing on the facility.
The borrowing base under the ABL Facility is determined by a monthly analysis of the eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The borrowing base is the sum of (a) 85 percent of eligible accounts receivable and (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.
The available total borrowing base is offset by ERISA, rent and tax reserves totaling $3.7 million and mark-to-market reserves for natural gas contracts of $1.8 million. The ABL Facility also provides for the issuance of $30.0 million of letters of credit, which are applied against the $110.0 million limit. At March 31, 2011, we had $10.4 million in letters of credit outstanding under the ABL Facility. Remaining unused availability on the new ABL Facility was $64.9 million at March 31, 2011 compared to $65.2 million under the ABL Facility at December 31, 2010.
We amended the ABL Facility on April 29, 2011. See note 15 for a further discussion of this subsequent event.
Senior Secured Notes
On February 8, 2010, Libbey Glass closed its offering of the $400.0 million Senior Secured Notes. The net proceeds of the offering of Senior Secured Notes were approximately $379.8 million, after the 1.918 percent original issue discount of $7.7 million, $10.0 million of commissions payable to the initial purchasers and $2.5 million of fees related to the offering. These fees will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes.
The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated February 8, 2010 (the “New Notes Indenture”), between Libbey Glass, the Company, the domestic subsidiaries of Libbey Glass listed as guarantors therein (the “Subsidiary Guarantors” and together with the Company, the “Guarantors”), and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “New Notes Trustee”), and collateral agent. Under the terms of the New Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes bear interest at a rate of 10.0 percent per year and will mature on February 15, 2015. The New Notes Indenture contains covenants that could restrict the ability of Libbey Glass and the Guarantors to, among other things:
12
Table of Contents
• | incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; | ||
• | pay dividends or make certain investments or other restricted payments; | ||
• | create liens; | ||
• | enter into affiliate transactions; | ||
• | merge or consolidate, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all the assets of Libbey Glass and the Guarantors; and | ||
• | transfer or sell assets. |
The New Notes Indenture provides for customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from bankruptcy or insolvency as defined in the New Notes Indenture, all outstanding Senior Secured Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default under the Indenture occurs or is continuing, the New Notes Trustee or holders of at least 25 percent in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Senior Secured Notes may declare all the Senior Secured Notes to be due and payable immediately.
The Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees under the New Notes Indenture are secured by (i) first priority liens on the New Notes Priority Collateral and (ii) second priority liens on the Credit Agreement Priority Collateral.
In connection with the sale of the Senior Secured Notes, Libbey Glass and the Guarantors entered into a registration rights agreement, dated February 8, 2010 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), under which they agreed to make an offer to exchange the Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees for registered, publicly tradable notes and guarantees that have substantially identical terms to the Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees, and in certain limited circumstances, to file a shelf registration statement that would allow certain holders of Senior Secured Notes to resell their respective Senior Secured Notes to the public. On January 25, 2011, we exchanged $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 10.0 percent Senior Secured Notes due 2015 for an equal principal amount of a new issue of 10.0 percent Senior Secured Notes due 2015, which have been registered under the Securities act of 1933, as amended.
Prior to August 15, 2012, we may redeem in the aggregate up to 35 percent of the original principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings at a redemption price of 110 percent of the principal amount, provided that at least 65 percent of the original principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes must remain outstanding after each redemption and that each redemption occurs within 90 days of the closing of the equity offering. In addition, prior to August 15, 2012, but not more than once in any twelve-month period, we may redeem up to 10 percent of the Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of 103 percent plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Senior Secured Notes are redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after August 15, 2012 at set redemption prices together with accrued and unpaid interest.
As previously announced, on March 25, 2011, Libbey Glass redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million of its outstanding 10.0 percent Senior Secured Notes Due 2015, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the terms of the New Notes Indenture. Pursuant to the terms of the New Notes Indenture, the redemption price for the Senior Secured Notes was 103.0 percent of the principal amount of the redeemed Senior Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At completion of the redemption, the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes outstanding was $360.0 million. In conjunction with this redemption, we recorded $2.8 million of expense, representing $1.2 million of an early call premium and $1.6 million for the write off of a pro rata amount of financing fees and discounts.
We have an Interest Rate Agreement (Rate Agreement) in place with respect to $90.0 million of debt as a means to manage our fixed to variable interest rate ratio. The Rate Agreement effectively converts this portion of our long-term borrowings from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt. The variable interest rate for our borrowings related to the Rate Agreement at March 31, 2011, excluding applicable fees, is 7.60 percent. This Rate Agreement expires on February 15, 2015. Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the Rate Agreement have a fixed interest rate of 10.0 percent per year through February 15, 2015. If the counterparty to this Rate Agreement were to fail to perform, this Rate Agreement would no longer afford us a variable rate. However, we do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparty. The interest rate swap counterparty was rated AA-, as of March 31, 2011, by Standard and Poor’s.
The fair market value for the Rate Agreement at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was a $1.9 million asset and a $2.5 million asset, respectively. An adjustment of $2.0 million and $3.3 million was recorded to increase the carrying value of the related long-term debt as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The net impact of $0.6 million income and $0.2 million expense is
13
Table of Contents
recorded in other income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively. See note 9 for further discussion. The fair value of the Rate Agreement is based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future fixed cash receipts and the discounted future variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. We expect this agreement to expire as originally contracted.
Promissory Note
In September 2001, we issued a $2.7 million promissory note at an interest rate of 6.0 percent in connection with the purchase of our Laredo, Texas warehouse facility. At March 31, 2011, we had $1.3 million outstanding on the promissory note. Interest with respect to the promissory note is paid monthly.
Notes Payable
We have an overdraft line of credit for a maximum of €1.0 million. At March 31, 2011, there were no borrowings under the facility, which has an interest rate of 5.80 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 equivalent of approximately $38.2 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 March 31, 2011, the annual interest rate was 5.42 percent. As of March 31, 2011, the outstanding balance was RMB 250.0 million (approximately $38.2 million). Interest is payable quarterly. Payments of principal in the amount of RMB 30.0 million (approximately $4.6 million) and RMB 40.0 million (approximately $6.1 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 $9.2 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 and a mortgage lien on the Libbey China facility.
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 $11.6 million outstanding at March 31, 2011 was the U.S. dollar equivalent of the €8.3 million outstanding under the line at an interest rate of 3.77 percent. Payment of principal in the amount of €2.2 million (approximately $3.1 million) is due in December 2011, payment of €2.8 million (approximately $3.9 million) is due in December 2012 and payment of €3.3 million (approximately $4.6 million) is due in December 2013. Interest with respect to the line is paid every six months.
Fair Value of Borrowings
The fair value of our debt has been calculated based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues. Our $360.0 million Senior Secured Notes due February 15, 2015 had an estimated fair value of $391.5 million at March 31, 2011. The fair value of the remainder of our debt approximates carrying value at March 31, 2011 due to variable interest rates.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Historically, cash flows generated from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility have enabled us to meet our cash requirements, including capital expenditures and working capital requirements. As of March 31, 2011 we had $4.4 million outstanding under our ABL Facility, and we had $10.4 million of letters of credit issued under that facility. As a result, we had $64.9 million of unused availability remaining under the ABL Facility at March 31, 2011. In addition, we had $13.1 million of cash on hand at March 31, 2011.
Based on our operating plans and current forecast expectations, we anticipate that our level of cash on hand, cash flows from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility will provide sufficient cash availability to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.

5. Special Charges
Facility Closures
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. The Syracuse China facility was closed on April 9, 2009 and the Mira Loma distribution center was closed on May 31, 2009. See Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for further discussion.
We incurred additional charges of approximately $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 related to our Syracuse China facility closure, primarily related to other costs net of building site clean-up adjustments in connection with the sale of the property in Syracuse, New York in March 2011. This amount was included in special charges on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the Other Operations segment as detailed in the table below.
We incurred additional charges of approximately $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 related to these closures. Special charges of $0.2 million were primarily related to employee termination and building site clean up costs. This amount was included in special charges on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the Glass Operations and Other Operations segments as detailed in the table below.
Other income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations included a charge of $0.1 million for the first quarter of 2010, for the change in fair value of ineffective natural gas hedges related to our Syracuse China operation. This amount was included in the Other Operations segment.
The following table summarizes the facility closure charges in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010:

Fixed Asset and Inventory Write-down
In August 2010, we wrote down decorating assets in our Shreveport, Louisiana facility as a result of our decision to outsource our U.S. decorating business. See Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for further discussion.
There were no additional charges for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
There was no balance sheet activity for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The ending balance of $0.3 million at March 31, 2011 was included in accrued special charges on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and we expect this to result in cash payments during the remainder of 2011.
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, and tax planning structures. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest and penalties.
FASB ASC 740-20, “Income Taxes — Intraperiod Tax Allocation”, requires that the provision for 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 is a tax benefit of $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. There was no tax benefit recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2010. 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 income taxes for 2011 is significantly impacted by valuation allowances. In the United States, China, the Netherlands and Portugal we have recorded valuation allowances against our deferred income tax assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 we did not release any valuation allowance. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we reduced our valuation allowance by $1.1 million. The release of valuation in 2010 was related to net operating losses in Mexico that were utilized. 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, and whether there are unusual, infrequent, or extraordinary items 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.
Total income tax payments at March 31, 2011, were $6.6 million, which consisted of $4.5 million in cash and $2.1 million in credits or offsets. Total income tax payments at March 31, 2010, were $5.6 million, which consisted of $4.9 million in cash and $0.7 million in credits or offsets.

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 employees of Libbey hired before January 1, 2006 and most hourly U.S.-based employees (excluding employees hired at Shreveport after 2008 and employees hired at Toledo after September 30, 2010). 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 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 (excluding employees hired at Shreveport after 2008 and employees hired at Toledo after September 30, 2010). 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 (excluding those mentioned above). 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 2011, we expect to utilize approximately $31.5 million to fund our pension plans and pay for non-pension postretirement benefits. Of that amount, $3.6 million was utilized in the three months ended March 31, 2011.
In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care Education and Affordability Reconciliation Act (the Acts) were signed into law. The Acts contain provisions which could impact our accounting for retiree medical benefits in future periods. Based on the analysis to date, the impact of provisions in the Acts which are reasonably determinable is not expected to have a material impact on our postretirement benefit plans. We will continue to assess the provisions of the Acts and may consider plan amendments in future periods to better align these plans with the provisions of the Acts.

In October 2009, we entered into a transaction with Merrill Lynch PCG, Inc. (the “Investor”) to exchange the existing 16.0 percent Old PIK Notes due in December 2011, for a combination of debt and equity securities (Exchange Transaction). As part of the Exchange Transaction, we issued warrants conveying the right to purchase, for $0.01 per share, 3,466,856 shares of Libbey Inc. common stock. These warrants were exercised and shares were issued in August, 2010.
When applicable, diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive impact of warrants and restricted stock units. Diluted shares also include the 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 manage our interest rate exposure associated with our long-term debt, to hedge 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 hedge 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. 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 forecasted transactions would occur, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives used as hedges would be reflected in our earnings. All of these contracts were accounted for under FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”.

Interest Rate Swaps as Fair Value Hedges
In the first quarter of 2010, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $100.0 million that is to mature in 2015. The swap was executed in order to convert a portion of the Senior Secured Note fixed rate debt into floating rate debt and maintain a capital structure containing appropriate amounts of fixed and floating rate debt. In August 2010, $10.0 million of the swap was called for a premium of $0.3 million. As of March 31, 2011 the notional amount of the interest rate swap agreement is $90.0 million.
Our fixed-to-floating interest rate swap is designated and qualifies as a fair value hedge. The change in the fair value of the derivative instrument related to the future cash flows (gain or loss on the derivative), as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged long-term debt attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. We include the gain or loss on the hedged long-term debt in other income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations along with the offsetting loss or gain on the related interest rate swap.

Commodity Future Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
We 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 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. Under FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, when the forecasted transactions of a hedging relationship become not probable of occurring, the gains or losses that have been classified in accumulated other comprehensive loss in prior periods for those contracts affected should be reclassified into earnings. We recognized an immaterial amount and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, in other income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations relating to these contracts. As of March 31,

Table of Contents
2011, we had commodity contracts for 2,910,000 million British Thermal Units (BTUs) of natural gas. At December 31, 2010, we had commodity contracts for 3,090,000 million BTUs of natural gas.
Most of our natural gas derivatives qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges (except certain contracts originally designated to expected purchases at Syracuse China) at March 31, 2011. Hedge accounting is applied only when the derivative is deemed to be highly 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. Changes in the effective portion of the fair value of these hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognized in current earnings. As the natural gas contracts mature, the accumulated gains (losses) for the respective contracts are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to current expense in cost of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We paid additional cash of $0.8 million and $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, due to the difference between the fixed unit rate of our natural gas contracts and the variable unit rate of our natural gas cost from suppliers. Based on our current valuation, we estimate that accumulated losses currently carried in accumulated other comprehensive loss that will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve months will result in $2.5 million of expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Currency Contracts
Our foreign currency exposure arises from transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, primarily associated with our Canadian dollar denominated accounts receivable. 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. During 2010, we entered into a series of foreign currency contracts to sell Canadian dollars. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had contracts for $21.9 million Canadian dollars and $18.7 million Canadian dollars, respectively.

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 counterparty is rated AA- for the Interest Rate Agreement and BBB+ or better for counterparties to the other derivative agreements as March 31, 2011, by Standard and Poor’s.

12. Segments
We have revised our segment structure to reflect our reorganization from geographical regions to one global company. Under this new structure, we have two reportable segments: Glass Operations and Other Operations. The classifications are defined as follows:
Glass Operations—includes worldwide sales of glass tableware and other glass products from domestic and international subsidiaries.
Other Operations—includes worldwide sales of ceramic dinnerware, metal tableware, hollowware and serveware and plastic items.
Our measure of profit for our reportable segments is Segment Earnings before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) and excludes amounts related to certain items we consider not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs. We use Segment EBIT, along with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment EBIT for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of services performed.
Certain activities not related to any particular reportable segment are reported within retained corporate costs. These costs include certain headquarters administrative and facility costs and other costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reporting segments. Corporate assets primarily include finance fees, capitalized software and income tax assets.
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in note 2. We do not have any customers who represent 10 percent or more of total sales. Inter-segment sales are consummated at arm’s length and are reflected in eliminations below.

13. Fair Value
FASB ASC 820 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. FASB ASC 820 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. |

The fair values of our commodity futures natural gas contracts and currency contracts are determined using observable market inputs. The fair value of our interest rate agreement is based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future fixed cash receipts and the discounted future variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. 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 position is recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with $2.0 million in derivative asset and $3.2 million in derivative liability as of March 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2010, $2.6 million was recorded in derivative asset and $3.4 million in derivative liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The commodity futures natural gas contracts and interest rate 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.

15. Subsequent Events
Sale of Traex Unit
On April 28, 2011, we closed on the sale of substantially all of the assets of our Traex subsidiary to the Vollrath Company. We expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $13.0 million and to record a gain on the sale of between $2.5 million and $3.5 million during the second quarter of 2011.
ABL Facility Amendment
On April 29, 2011, Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe amended the ABL Facility dated February 8, 2010. The amendment, among other things:
• | reduces the amount of commitments available for revolving loans from $110.0 million, but allows Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe the option to increase the loan facility by $10.0 million; | |
• | extends the maturity from April 8, 2014 to April 29, 2016, and provides for a springing maturity date with respect to the credit facility to the extent that Libbey Glass’ 10 percent Senior Secured Notes due 2015 are not refinanced by November 17, 2014, subject to certain exceptions; | |
• | reduces pricing for all loans by 1.5 percent to 1.75 percent making the applicable margin spread for Eurocurrency Loans 1.75 percent to 2.0 percent and CBFR Loans 0.75 percent to 1.0 percent; and | |
• | provides for a springing fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, requiring Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe to maintain an EBITDA to fixed charges ratio above 1.10:1.00 during periods when the amount of available commitments plus the loan parties’ cash and permitted investments falls below a certain threshold. |

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
Economic market conditions continued to be challenging during the first quarter of 2011. Our sales have improved compared to the same period last year and our U.S. and Canadian retail glassware business has continued its strong performance. In addition, we have experienced solid net sales growth in our China sales region. Our U.S. and Canadian foodservice glassware business was negatively impacted by the severe winter weather in January and early February. On March 25, 2011, we redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million of our outstanding 10.0 percent Senior Secured Notes due 2015. Please see note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of this transaction. Effective the first quarter of 2011, we reorganized from geographical regions to one global company. Under this new structure, we have two operating segments: Glass Operations and Other Operations. These operating segments are defined as follows:
Glass Operations—includes worldwide sales of glass tableware and other glass operations from domestic and international subsidiaries.
Other Operations—includes worldwide sales of ceramic dinnerware, metal tableware, hollowware and serveware and plastic items.

Table of Contents
Net Sales
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, net sales increased 4.1 percent to $181.0 million from first quarter sales of $173.9 million in the year-ago quarter. The improvement was primarily attributable to our Glass Operations, where net sales increased 4.5 percent to $162.1 million from $155.1 million in the year-ago quarter. Other Operations segment sales were $19.2 million, compared to $18.9 million in the prior-year quarter. Currency positively impacted consolidated net sales by approximately 1.0 percent.
Gross Profit
For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, gross profit increased by $2.3 million, or 6.7 percent, to $36.1 million, compared to $33.9 million in the year-ago quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 20.0 percent, compared to 19.5 percent in the year-ago quarter. The primary contributor to the increase in gross profit and gross profit margin was the increase in sales of $5.5 million, excluding the impact of currency. This increase was offset by slightly lower production activity, net of volume-related production and sales costs of $3.9 million, excluding the impact of currency. Favorable currency impact contributed $0.7 million to gross profit, primarily from the Mexican peso.
Income From Operations
Income from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 decreased $0.1 million, or 1.2 percent, to $10.7 million, compared to $10.8 million in the year-ago quarter. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales decreased to 5.9 percent in the first quarter of 2011, compared to 6.2 percent in the year-ago quarter. Contributing to the small decline in income from operations were higher selling, general and administrative expenses, offset by higher gross profit and higher gross profit margin (discussed above). Selling, general and administrative costs increased $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2011 as compared to the year-ago quarter, as we incurred comparatively higher expenses related to incentive compensation, share-based compensation and legal and professional fees.
Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT)
Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 decreased by $56.0 million, to $10.9 million in 2011 from $66.9 million in 2010. EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 6.0 percent in the first quarter 2011, compared to 38.4 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. In addition, we recorded a $56.8 million gain on redemption of debt in 2010, net of certain transaction expenses. In 2011, we redeemed $40.0 million of our Senior Secured Notes and recorded a $2.8 million write-off of unamortized finance fees and discounts and call premium payments. See note 4 for a further discussion of these two debt transactions. Other income (expense) increased by $3.8 million, primarily related to a gain on the sale of land at our Royal Leerdam facility.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization (EBITDA)
EBITDA decreased by $55.5 million in the first quarter of 2011, to $21.8 million, compared to $77.2 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percentage of net sales, EBITDA was 12.0 percent for the first quarter 2011, compared to 44.4 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).
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased by $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2011, to $21.2 million, compared to $20.8 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 11.7 percent for the first quarter 2011, compared to 12.0 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key contributors to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA were those factors discussed above under Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), and the exclusion of a $3.4 million gain on the sale of land at our Royal

Table of Contents
Leerdam facility and a $2.8 million loss on redemption of debt in 2011, $56.8 million gain on redemption of debt and a $0.4 million facility closure charge in 2010.
Net (Loss) Income and Diluted Net (Loss) Income Per Share
We recorded a net loss of $(1.0) million, or $(0.05) per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2011, compared to net income of $55.4 million, or $2.76 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Net (loss) income as a percentage of net sales was (0.6) percent in the first quarter 2011, compared to 31.9 percent in the year-ago quarter. The decline in Net (loss) income and diluted net (loss) income per share is generally due to the factors discussed in EBIT above, and a $2.0 million increase in interest expense. This increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to the fact that a portion of our debt carried a low effective interest rate in January 2010, prior to the debt refinancing completed in February 2010. Lower debt levels in 2011 partially offset the change in interest rates. The effective tax rate was a negative 45.7 percent for the quarter, compared to a 3.2 percent benefit in the year-ago quarter, due to the reversal of a portion of our valuation allowance in Mexico in 2010, in addition to changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions and tax planning structures.

Table of Contents
Currency positively impacted net sales by approximately 1.0 percent.
Segment EBIT increased to $17.4 million for the first quarter of 2011, compared to $15.4 million for the year-ago quarter. Segment EBIT as a percentage of net sales increased to 10.7 percent in the first quarter of 2011, compared to 9.9 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key factor in the $2.0 million increase in Segment EBIT was an increase in sales of $5.3 million, excluding the impact of currency. This increase was offset by slightly lower production activity, net of volume-related production and sales costs of $2.9 million, excluding the impact of currency. Favorable currency impact contributed $0.5 million to the Segment EBIT, primarily from the Mexican peso. Other income (expense) includes an unfavorable swing of $0.5 million primarily related to larger foreign currency translation losses versus the prior-year quarter.
Other Operations
For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, net sales increased 1.5 percent to $19.2 million from $18.9 million in the year-ago quarter.
Segment EBIT decreased by $0.6 million, or 17.4 percent, to $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2011, compared to $3.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Segment EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to 15.0 percent in the first quarter of 2011, compared to 18.5 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key contributor to the decreased Segment EBIT was an increase in costs of purchased finished goods of $0.6 million.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Balance Sheet and Cash Flows
Cash and Equivalents
At March 31, 2011, our cash balance was $13.1 million, a decrease of $63.2 million from $76.3 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to the cash interest payment made on our Senior Secured Notes in February, 2011 and the use of cash to redeem $40.0 million of Senior Secured Notes in March, 2011.

Working capital, defined as net accounts receivable plus net inventories less accounts payable, was $199.1 million at March 31, 2011, an increase of $18.0 million from December 31, 2010. Our working capital normally increases during the first quarter of the year due to the seasonality of our business. In particular, inventory normally increases to prepare for seasonally higher orders which typically exceed production levels in the latter part of the year. This quarter, our increase is primarily driven by higher inventories resulting from a planned growth of inventories in Mexico to accommodate scheduled furnace rebuilds and a $4.0 million currency impact. As a result, working capital as a percentage of last twelve-month net sales increased to 24.7 percent at March 31, 2011 from 22.6 percent at December 31, 2010. Working capital as a percentage of last twelve-month net sales at March 31, 2011 is below that of March 31, 2010, which was 24.9 percent.

We had total borrowings of $415.4 million at March 31, 2011, compared to total borrowings of $450.2 million at December 31, 2010. The $34.8 million decrease in borrowings was the result of the March 25, 2011 $40.0 million redemption of Senior Secured Notes, offset by an increase in our borrowings under the ABL facility.
Of our total borrowings, $144.2 million, or approximately 34.7 percent, was subject to variable interest rates at March 31, 2011. A change of one percentage point in such rates would result in a change in interest expense of approximately $1.4 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 $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Cash Flow

(1) | We believe that Free cash flow [net cash used in operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus proceeds from assets sales and other; further adjusted for payment of interest on New PIK Notes] is a useful metric for evaluating our financial performance, as it is a measure we use internally to assess performance. See Table 2 for a reconciliation of net cash used in operating activities to Free cash flow and a further discussion as to the reasons we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful. |
Our net cash used in operating activities was $(23.1) million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(46.2) million in the year-ago quarter, or an improvement of $23.1 million. The major factors impacting cash flow from operations were the $56.4 million reduction in net (loss) income offset by $86.2 million of items related to our February 2010 debt refinancing. In addition, we generated lower uses of cash related to accounts receivable and accounts payable as compared to the year-ago quarter of $9.7 million. This was partially offset by a larger use of cash of $3.8 million from increased inventory primarily related to a planned increase in inventory in Mexico to accommodate scheduled furnace rebuilds. We also had a $13.9 million increase in cash interest payments resulting from a change in the timing of payments as a result of the February 2010 debt refinancing.
Our net cash used in investing activities decreased to $(5.1) million in the first quarter of 2011, compared to $(12.6) million in the year-ago period, primarily as a result of a reduction of $7.2 million in payments of call premiums on our senior secured and floating rate notes between periods and cash proceeds received of $4.6 million on the sale of land at our Royal Leerdam facility and the vacant property in Syracuse, New York. Offsetting these amounts were the increase of $4.4 million compared to the prior year first quarter in capital expenditures.
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was a $(35.3) million use of cash in the first quarter of 2011, compared to a $22.0 million source of cash in the year-ago quarter. During the first quarter of 2011, we redeemed $40.0 million of our Senior Secured Notes offset by $4.4 million of borrowings on our ABL facility. During the first quarter of 2010, our proceeds from the Senior Secured Notes were only partially offset by the repurchase of our floating rate notes, the redemption of the PIK notes and payment of debt issuance costs. The increase in cash provided by financing activities, along with cash on hand, were used to pay the interest on the PIK notes and the call premium on the floating rate notes.
Our Free cash flow was $(27.0) million during the first quarter of 2011, compared to $(20.9) million in the year-ago quarter, a decrease of $6.1 million. The primary contributors to this change were a larger use of cash from operating activities compared to the year-ago quarter, excluding the interest on the PIK Notes; and an increase in capital expenditures, offset by the cash proceeds on the sale of land, as discussed above.
Derivatives
We have an Interest Rate Agreement (Rate Agreement) with respect to $90.0 million of debt in order to convert a portion of the Senior Secured Note fixed rate debt into floating rate debt, maintain a capital structure containing appropriate amounts of fixed and floating rate debt and reduce net interest payments and expenses in the near-term. The interest rate for our borrowings related to the Rate Agreement at March 31, 2011 is 7.60 percent per year. This Rate Agreement expires on February 15, 2015. Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the Rate Agreement have a fixed interest rate of 10.0 percent. If the counterparty to this Rate Agreement were to fail to perform, the Rate Agreement would no longer provide the desired results. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty. The counterparty was rated AA- as of March 31, 2011, by Standard and Poor’s.
The fair market value for the Rate Agreement at March 31, 2011, was a $1.9 million asset. The fair value of the Rate Agreement is based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future fixed cash receipts and the discounted future variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. We do not expect to cancel this agreement and expect it 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 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. At March 31, 2011, we had commodity futures contracts for 2,910,000 million British Thermal Units (BTUs) of natural gas with a fair market value of an $(2.5) million liability. We have hedged a portion of our forecasted transactions through June 2012. At December 31, 2010, we had commodity futures contracts for 3,090,000 million BTUs of natural gas with a fair market value of a $(3.2) million liability. The counterparties for these derivatives were rated BBB+ or better as of March 31, 2011, by Standard & Poor’s.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Historically, cash flows generated from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility have enabled us to meet our cash requirements, including capital expenditures and working capital requirements. As of March 31, 2011 we had $4.4 million outstanding under our ABL Facility, and we had $10.4 million of letters of credit issued under that facility. As a result, we had $64.9 million of unused availability remaining under the ABL Facility at March 31, 2011. In addition, we had $13.1 million of cash on hand at March 31, 2011.
Based on our operating plans and current forecast expectations, we anticipate that our level of cash on hand, cash flows from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility will provide sufficient cash availability 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 (loss) income before interest expense and income taxes. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net (loss) 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 (loss) income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net (loss) 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 present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA internally to measure profitability and to set performance targets for managers.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:
• | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; | ||
• | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; | ||
• | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts; | ||
• | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; | ||
• | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and | ||
• | other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. |
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

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 the U.S. dollar. 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 have an Interest Rate Agreement (Rate Agreement) with respect to $90.0 million of debt in order to convert a portion of the Senior Secured Note fixed rate debt into floating rate debt and maintain a capital structure containing appropriate amounts of fixed and floating rate debt. The interest rate for our borrowings related to the Rate Agreement at March 31, 2011 is 7.60 percent per year. The Rate Agreement expires on February 15, 2015. Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the Rate Agreement have a fixed interest rate of 10.0 percent. If the counterparty to the Rate Agreement were to fail to perform, the Rate Agreement would no

longer provide the desired results. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty. The counterparty was rated AA- as of March 31, 2011, by Standard and Poor’s.
Natural Gas
We are also exposed to market risks associated with changes in the price of natural gas due to either general market forces, or in the case of our operations in China, by government mandate. 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 volatility in earnings or cash flows from 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 and cash flows. 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 March 31, 2011.
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 1.0 percent in the discount rate would change our total annual pension and nonpension postretirement expense by approximately $4.5 million. | ||
• | A change of 1.0 percent in the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets would change annual pension expense by approximately $2.4 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.
• | Slowdowns in the retail, travel, restaurant and bar or entertainment industries, such as those caused by general economic downturns, terrorism or political or social unrest, health concerns or strikes or bankruptcies within those industries, could reduce our revenues and production activity levels. | ||
• | 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. | ||
• | 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. | ||
• | Fluctuation of the currencies in which we conduct operations could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations or reduce the cost competitiveness of our products or those of our subsidiaries. | ||
• | Our business requires us to maintain a large fixed-cost base that can affect our profitability. | ||
• | We may not be able to achieve the international growth contemplated by our strategy. | ||
• | We face intense competition and competitive pressures, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. | ||
• | We conduct significant operations at our facility in Monterrey, Mexico, which could be materially adversely affected as a result of the increased levels of drug-related violence in that city. | ||
• | We may not be able to renegotiate collective bargaining agreements successfully when they expire; organized strikes or work stoppages by unionized employees may have an adverse effect on our operating performance. | ||
• | The inability to extend or refinance debt of our foreign subsidiaries, or the calling of that debt before scheduled maturity, could adversely impact our liquidity and financial condition. | ||
• | Our cost-reduction projects may not result in anticipated savings in operating costs. | ||
• | We are subject to risks associated with operating in foreign countries. These risks could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. | ||
• | If we have a fair value impairment in a business segment, our net earnings and net worth could be materially and adversely affected by a write-down of goodwill, intangible assets or fixed assets. | ||
• | A severe outbreak, epidemic or pandemic of the H1N1 virus or other contagious disease in a location where we have a facility could adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. | ||
