AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited) --------------------------------------------------- 1. Financial Statements -------------------- The condensed financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of PPG Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company or PPG) at June 30, 2001, and the results of their operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 and their cash flows for the six month periods then ended. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto incorporated by reference in PPG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. In the fourth quarter of 2000 the Company changed its policy for classifying freight costs from a deduction in arriving at net sales to an expense in cost of sales as required by Emerging Issues Task Force 00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." As a result, sales and cost of sales have been restated by an equal amount for each prior period presented. Change in Method of Accounting Effective January 1, 2001, PPG adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" as amended by SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." These standards require the Company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value in its balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the use of the derivative. To the extent that a derivative is effective as a hedge of a future exposure to changes in value, the fair value of the derivative is deferred in other comprehensive income. Any portion considered to be ineffective is reported in earnings immediately. Adoption of these new standards on January 1, 2001 resulted in an increase in current assets, current liabilities and other comprehensive income of $70 million, $26 million and $43 million, respectively, with a cumulative after-tax increase in net income of less than $1 million. -5- 2. Earnings Per Common Share ------------------------- The following table reflects the earnings per common share calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.

Business Realignments --------------------- During the first quarter of 2001, the Company finalized plans to reduce costs, increase efficiencies and accelerate performance improvement and took a charge of $101 million for restructuring and other related activities, including severance and other costs of $67 million and asset dispositions of $34 million. It is expected that these activities will be substantially completed by March 2002. Severance and Asset Total Employees Other Costs Dispositions Charge Covered ----------- ------------ ------ ------- (Millions, except employee amounts) Coatings ..................... $ 60 $ 23 $ 83 1,072 Glass ........................ 4 6 10 254 Chemicals .................... 2 5 7 23 Corporate .................... 1 -- 1 18 ------ ------ ------ ------ Total PPG ................ $ 67 $ 34 $ 101 1,367 Activity ................. (20) (24) (44) (516) ------ ------ ------ ------ Balance, end of period ... $ 47 $ 10 $ 57 851 ====== ====== ====== ====== During 2000, the Company finalized restructuring plans for certain locations related to the integration of the automotive and industrial coatings businesses of Imperial Chemical Industries PLC (the ICI business) and PRC-DeSoto International, Inc. (PRC-DeSoto). These restructuring plans were originally developed at the acquisition date (principally July 1999). The plans cover severance benefits for 618 employees, as well as other costs, and resulted in an increase to goodwill of $24 million and a charge of $1 million in 2000. As of June 30, 2001, $20 million has been paid to 615 employees. The balance of the reserve, $5 million, will cover the remaining employee separations and lease costs, which run through the termination of a lease. During 2000, PPG Auto Glass L.L.C. (PPG Auto Glass) accrued severance and other restructuring related costs of $10 million, resulting in an increase to goodwill of $6 million and a pre-tax charge of $4 million. In addition, PPG Auto Glass incurred one-time integration costs of $2 million. The restructuring plans include severance benefits for 133 employees and other exit costs. As of June 30, 2001, $7 million has been paid, including $2 million to 118 employees. The remaining reserve of $3 million, which includes severance for 15 employees and other restructuring costs, is expected to be paid by the end of 2001. In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company took charges of $3 million related to work force reductions in the coatings business for 65 people. As of June 30, 2001 these actions are complete. During 1999, the Company approved restructuring plans associated with the integration of the packaging coatings acquisition and cost reduction activities across all of the businesses that resulted in charges of $47 million. The components of the plans included severance benefits for 519 employees and estimated losses of $17 million on the disposition of a redundant European facility and the disposition of the assets of a U.S. coatings facility. Additionally in 2000, severance reserves for 121 people totaling $5 million were reversed due to changes in estimates. As of June 30, 2001, the asset dispositions are complete and $23 million has been paid under the plans to 382 employees and to cover other exit costs. The remaining balance of $2 million will be substantially utilized in 2001. -7- 4. Inventories ----------- Inventories at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 are detailed below.

See Note 3, "Business Realignments," for amounts by business segment. 8. Derivative Financial Instruments -------------------------------- PPG is exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions that are entered into in the normal course of business. The Company may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions in order to manage or reduce this market risk. PPG's policies do not permit active trading of, or speculation in, derivative financial instruments. PPG manages its foreign currency transaction risk to minimize the volatility of cash flows caused by currency fluctuations by forecasting foreign currency-denominated cash flows of each subsidiary for a 12-month period and aggregating these cash inflows and outflows in each currency to determine the overall net transaction exposures. Decisions on whether to use derivative financial instruments to hedge the net transaction exposures are made based on the amount of those exposures, by currency, and an assessment of the near-term outlook for each currency. The Company's policy permits the use of foreign currency forward and option contracts to hedge up to 70% of its anticipated net foreign currency cash flows over the next 12-month period. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting. Therefore, the change in the fair value of these instruments is recorded in earnings in the period of change in "Other, net" in the condensed statement of income. Such amount was not material for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. The sales, costs, assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. operations must be reported in U.S. dollars in order to prepare consolidated financial statements which gives rise to translation risk. The Company monitors its exposure to translation risk and enters into derivative foreign currency contracts to hedge its exposure, as deemed appropriate. This risk management strategy does not qualify for hedge accounting under the provisions of SFAS No. 133; therefore, the change in the fair value of these instruments is recorded in earnings in the period of change in "Other, net" in the - 10 - condensed statement of income. Such amount was not material for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. PPG designates forward currency contracts as hedges against the Company's exposure to variability in exchange rates on intercompany borrowings denominated in foreign currencies. To the extent effective, changes in the fair value of these instruments are deferred in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified to "Other, net" in the condensed statement of income as foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized on the intercompany borrowings. The portion of the change in fair value considered to be ineffective is reported in "Other, net" in the condensed statement of income. Such amount was not material for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. The Company manages its interest rate risk in order to balance its exposure between fixed and variable rates while attempting to minimize its interest costs. Generally, the Company maintains variable interest rate debt at a level of 25% to 50% of total borrowings. PPG principally manages its interest rate risk by retiring and issuing debt from time to time. To a limited extent, PPG manages its interest rate risk through the use of interest rate swaps. To the extent effective, changes in the fair value of these instruments are deferred in other comprehensive income and reclassified to interest expense as the interest expense is accrued on the underlying debt. As of January 1, 2001 and June 30, 2001, the fair value of interest rate swaps was not material. Currently, the Company's principal use of derivative financial instruments is to manage its exposure to fluctuating natural gas prices through the use of natural gas swap and option contracts. To the extent that these instruments are effective in hedging PPG's exposure to price changes, changes in the hedge contracts' fair values are deferred in other comprehensive income and reclassified to cost of sales as the natural gas is purchased. Changes in the time value of option contracts are excluded from the Company's assessment of hedge effectiveness and reported in earnings immediately. The amount of ineffectiveness, which is reported in "Other, net" in the condensed statement of income for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, was not material. No derivative instrument initially designated as a hedge instrument was undesignated or discontinued as a hedging instrument for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. Derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments mature within the next twelve months. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, $3 million and $26 million, respectively, of accumulated gain on derivatives, net of tax, was realized and reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings and other comprehensive income decreased by $9 million and $31 million, respectively, from a decline in the fair value of derivatives held, net of tax. 9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities -------------------------------------- PPG is involved in a number of lawsuits and claims, both actual and potential, including some that it has asserted against others, in which substantial monetary damages are sought. These lawsuits and claims relate to product liability, contract, patent, environmental, antitrust and other matters arising out of the conduct of PPG's business. The Company has been named in a number of antitrust lawsuits alleging that PPG acted with competitors to fix prices and allocate markets for certain glass products. These antitrust proceedings are in an early stage. - 11 - For over thirty years, the Company has been a defendant in lawsuits involving claims alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos. Aggregate settlements by PPG to date have been immaterial. Over the past few years, the number of asbestos-related claims against the Company, as well as numerous other defendants, has increased. At June 30, 2001, the Company was one of many defendants in numerous asbestos-related lawsuits involving approximately 116,000 claims. In many of the cases, the plaintiffs allege that the Company should be liable for injuries from products manufactured and distributed by Pittsburgh Corning Corporation ("PC"). The Company and Corning Incorporated are each 50% shareholders of PC. The Company believes it is not responsible for any injuries caused by PC products and intends to defend against such claims. Prior to 2000, PPG had never been found liable for any such claims, and in numerous cases PPG had been dismissed on motions prior to trial. In January 2000, in a trial in a state court in Texas involving six plaintiffs, the jury found PPG not liable. However, a week later in a separate trial also in a state court in Texas, another jury found PPG, for the first time, partly responsible for injuries to five plaintiffs alleged to be caused by PC products. The Company intends to appeal that verdict. On April 16, 2000, PC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Federal Bankruptcy Court in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Accordingly, in the first quarter of 2000, the Company recorded an after-tax charge of $35 million for the write-off of all of its equity investment in PC. As a consequence of the bankruptcy filing and the various motions and orders in that proceeding, the asbestos litigation against PC and PPG has been stayed, and the filing of additional asbestos suits against them has been enjoined, until November 30, 2001. During the pendency of the stay, interested parties, including PC and PPG, among others, have been engaged in discussions to determine whether a settlement of all current and potential asbestos claims can be agreed on within the context of the PC bankruptcy proceeding. These settlement discussions involve numerous, complex issues. Accordingly, it is impossible to predict whether or on what terms a voluntary settlement, if any, on the part of PPG might be reached. Although PPG believes it has adequate insurance for the lawsuits and claims against PPG described above, certain of PPG's insurers are contesting coverage with respect to some of these claims. PPG's lawsuits and claims against others include claims against insurers and other third parties with respect to actual and contingent losses related to environmental, asbestos and other matters. Except with respect to any PPG contribution arising out of a possible voluntary settlement of asbestos claims as discussed above, the amount of which cannot be predicted, management believes that, in the aggregate, the outcome of all lawsuits and claims involving PPG will not have a material effect on PPG's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. It is PPG's policy to accrue expenses for environmental contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Reserves for environmental contingencies are exclusive of claims against third parties and are not discounted. As of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, PPG had reserves for environmental contingencies totaling $84 million. Pre-tax charges against income for environmental remediation costs for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 totaled $7 million and $6 million, respectively. Cash outlays related to such environmental remediation for each of the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 aggregated $7 million. Management anticipates that the resolution of the Company's environmental contingencies will occur over an extended period of time. - 12 - The pre-tax charge for environmental remediation costs for 2001 is expected to be in the range of $20 million to $30 million. It is possible, however, that technological, regulatory and enforcement developments, the results of environmental studies and other factors could alter this expectation. In management's opinion, the Company operates in an environmentally sound manner and the outcome of the Company's environmental contingencies will not have a material effect on PPG's financial position or liquidity. In addition to the amounts currently reserved, the Company may be subject to loss contingencies related to environmental matters estimated to be as much as $200 million to $400 million, which range is unchanged from December 31, 2000. Such unreserved losses are reasonably possible but are not currently considered to be probable of occurrence. Although insurers and other third parties may cover a portion of these costs, to the extent they are incurred, any potential recovery is not included in this unreserved exposure to future loss. The Company's environmental contingencies are expected to be resolved over an extended period of time. Although the unreserved exposure to future loss relates to all sites, a significant portion of such exposure involves three operating plant sites. Initial remedial actions are occurring at these sites. Studies to determine the nature of the contamination are reaching completion and the need for additional remedial actions, if any, is presently being evaluated. The loss contingencies related to the remaining portion of such unreserved exposure include significant unresolved issues such as the nature and extent of contamination, if any, at sites and the methods that may have to be employed should remediation be required. With respect to certain waste sites, the financial condition of any other potentially responsible parties also contributes to the uncertainty of estimating PPG's final costs. Although contributors of waste to sites involving other potentially responsible parties may face governmental agency assertions of joint and several liability, in general, final allocations of costs are made based on the relative contributions of wastes to such sites. PPG is generally not a major contributor to such sites. The impact of evolving programs, such as natural resource damage claims, industrial site reuse initiatives and state voluntary remediation programs, also adds to the present uncertainties with regard to the ultimate resolution of this unreserved exposure to future loss. The Company's assessment of the potential impact of these environmental contingencies is subject to considerable uncertainty due to the complex, ongoing and evolving process of investigation and remediation, if necessary, of such environmental contingencies. A major customer of one of the Company's Asian coatings joint ventures is experiencing financial difficulties. Should this customer be unable to pay the amounts owed to our investee or cease operations, our loss would be limited to the carrying value of the Company's investment in the joint venture which was approximately $20 million as of June 30, 2001. - 13 - Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of Operations ------------- Performance in Second Quarter of 2001 Compared to Second Quarter of 2000 Performance Overview Sales decreased 5% for the second quarter of 2001 to $2.16 billion compared to $2.28 billion for the second quarter of 2000. The combination of a 4% volume decline across all of our business segments and a 2% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation primarily in our coatings segment contributed to the sales decline. These negative factors were partially offset by a 1% increase due to higher selling prices primarily in our glass segment. The gross profit percentage decreased to 38.0% for the second quarter of 2001 compared to 38.8% for the second quarter of 2000. The decrease in the gross profit percentage was due to higher energy costs offset, in part, by improved manufacturing efficiencies. Net income and earnings per share, diluted, for the second quarter of 2001 were $155 million and $0.92, respectively, compared to $205 million and $1.17, respectively, for the same quarter in 2000. The decrease in net income was due to higher energy costs and lower sales volumes across all of our businesses offset, in part, by improved manufacturing efficiencies and a lower effective tax rate. Performance of Business Segments Coatings sales decreased 6% to $1.17 billion compared to $1.24 billion for the second quarter of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 3%, primarily in our North American automotive original, refinish and industrial coatings businesses, and a 3% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation contributed to the sales decline. Operating income for the second quarter of 2001 was $175 million compared to $205 million for the same quarter of 2000. The decrease in operating income is attributable primarily to lower sales volumes. Glass sales of $608 million were comparable to $607 million for the second quarter of 2000. A sales increase of 3% resulting from higher selling prices was offset by a 3% decline in sales volume. Operating income for the second quarter of 2001 was $99 million compared to $112 million for the same quarter of 2000. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volume and higher natural gas costs offset, in part, by improved manufacturing efficiencies. Chemicals sales decreased 9% to $391 million compared to $431 million for the second quarter of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 8% in our chlor-alkali products and a 1% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation contributed to the sales decline. Operating income for the second quarter of 2001 was $26 million compared to $50 million for the same quarter of 2000. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volumes and higher natural gas costs, partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative costs. Performance in the First Six Months of 2001 Compared to the First Six Months of 2000 Performance Overview Sales decreased 4% for the first six months of 2001 to $4.26 billion compared to $4.43 billion for the first six months of 2000. The combination of a 3% volume decline across all of our -14- business segments and a 2% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation in our coatings segment contributed to the sales decline. These negative factors were partially offset by a 1% increase due to higher selling prices primarily in our glass and chemicals segments. The gross profit percentage decreased to 37.5% for the first six months of 2001 compared to 38.8% for the first six months of 2000. The decrease in the gross profit percentage was due to higher energy costs in our glass and chemicals segments. Net income and earnings per share, diluted, for the first six months of 2001 were $211 million and $1.25, respectively, compared to $344 million and $1.96, respectively for the first six months of 2000. Net income for the first six months of 2001 included an after-tax charge of $71 million for restructuring and other related activities and net income for the first six months of 2000 included an after-tax charge of $35 million for the write-off of an equity investment. Excluding these charges, net income and earnings per share, diluted, for the first six months of 2001 were $282 million and $1.67, respectively, compared to $379 million and $2.16, respectively, for the first six months of 2000. The decrease is attributable to higher energy costs and lower sales volumes, partially offset by slightly higher selling prices and a lower effective tax rate. Performance of Business Segments Coatings sales decreased 6% to $2.27 billion compared to $2.41 billion for the first six months of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 3%, primarily in our North American automotive original and industrial businesses, and a 3% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation produced the sales decline. Operating income was $236 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $372 million for the first six months of 2000. Operating income for the first six months of 2001 included pre-tax restructuring and other related costs of $83 million, as previously discussed. Excluding these charges, operating income for the first six months of 2001 was $319 million. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volumes offset, in part, by improved manufacturing efficiencies. Glass sales increased 2% to $1.19 billion compared to $1.17 billion for the first six months of 2000. Sales increased 3% due to higher selling prices offset partially by decreased sales volumes of 1% primarily in our automotive original and fiberglass businesses. Operating income was $184 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $210 million for the first six months of 2000. Operating income for the first six months of 2001 included pre-tax restructuring and other related costs of $10 million, as previously discussed. Excluding these charges, operating income for the first six months of 2001 was $194 million. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volumes primarily in our automotive original and fiber glass businesses and the effects of higher natural gas costs, partially offset by improved manufacturing efficiencies and higher selling prices. Chemicals sales decreased 5% to $802 million compared to $841 million for the first six months of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 6%, primarily from our chlor-alkali products and a 1% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation contributed to the sales decline. These sales decreases were offset slightly by a 2% increase in sales from higher selling prices for our chlorine and other chlor-alkali products. Operating income was $49 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $124 million for the first six months of 2000. Operating income for the first six months of 2001 included pre-tax restructuring and other related costs of $7 million, as previously discussed. Excluding these charges, operating income for the first six months of 2001 was $56 million. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volumes, higher natural gas costs and decreased manufacturing efficiencies offset, in part, by higher selling prices. -15- Other Factors The change in other unallocated corporate income (expense) - net for second quarter of 2001 as compared to the same quarter of 2000 is principally due to the absence of a second quarter 2000 gain from the sales of corporate assets. Additionally, other unallocated corporate income (expense) - net for the six months ended June 30, 2000 includes a pre-tax charge of $39 million representing the write-off of an equity investment, a gain from the sale of corporate assets and lower employee benefit costs. The Company's pre-tax earnings for the first six months of 2001 and 2000 included net periodic pension income of $30 million and $42 million, respectively, related to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Net periodic pension income for 2002 will be less than that recorded in 2001 unless there is a significant recovery in the U.S. equity markets between now and the end of the year. The tax rate on on-going operations for 2001 is 36.0% and reflects an improvement in the regional mix of non-U.S. taxable earnings and a lower effective state tax rate when compared with the prior year. Restructuring charges in 2001, which reflected a tax benefit at a rate of 30.0%, raised the overall effective tax rate for the first six months of 2001 to 37.9%. The overall effective tax rate of 40.2% for the first six month of 2000 reflects a 38.5% tax rate on on-going operations and the adverse effects of the write-off of an equity investment, which was not deductible for tax purposes. During the second quarter of 2001 the Company renegotiated $1.2 billion in credit lines which support the commercial paper programs in the United States, Europe and Canada. The new facility is comprised of a $600 million portion having a 5-year term and a $600 million portion having a 364-day term. The facility fee paid on the committed amount is 7 1/2 basis points on the 5-year portion and six basis points on the 364-day portion. At June 30, 2001, there were no outstanding borrowings on these lines of credit. The decrease in short-term and long-term debt is due principally to the repayment of various non-U.S. debt obligations, primarily related to our European operations. Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 2001, PPG adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" as amended by SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." These standards require the Company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value in its balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the use of the derivative. To the extent that a derivative is effective as a hedge of a future exposure to changes in value, the fair value of the derivative is deferred in other comprehensive income. Any portion considered to be ineffective is reported in earnings immediately. Adoption of these new standards on January 1, 2001 resulted in an increase in current assets, current liabilities and other comprehensive income of $70 million, $26 million and $43 million, respectively, with a cumulative after-tax increase in net income of less than $1 million. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The Company does not believe that the prospective adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial -16- position or cash flows for 2001. SFAS No. 142 changes the accounting for goodwill and certain other intangible assets from an amortization method to an impairment only approach. We will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002 and are currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 142 will have on PPG's consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Amortization of goodwill recorded in 2001 will be approximately $30 million. Conversion to the Euro On January 1, 1999, eleven of the member countries of the European Monetary Union converted from their sovereign currencies to a common currency, the euro. At that time, fixed conversion rates between the legacy currencies and the euro were set. Greece has joined the original 11 countries and will adopt the euro in 2002. The legacy currencies will remain legal tender through July 1, 2002. Beginning January 1, 2002, euro-denominated currency will be issued. No later than July 1, 2002, the participating countries will withdraw all bills and coins so that their legacy currencies will no longer be considered legal tender. PPG has identified and substantially addressed the significant issues that may have resulted from the euro conversion. These issues include increased competitive pressures from greater price transparency, changes to information systems to accommodate various aspects of the new currency and exposure to market risk with respect to financial instruments. The impact on PPG's operating results and financial condition from the conversion to the euro has not been, and is not expected to be, material. Forward-Looking Statements The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Management's Discussion and Analysis and other sections of this Form 10-Q contain forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are identified by the use of the words "aim," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate" and other expressions that indicate future events and trends. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Also, note the following cautionary statements. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's forward-looking statements. Among these factors are increasing price and product competition by foreign and domestic competitors, fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials, the ability to maintain favorable supplier relationships and arrangements, economic and political conditions in international markets, the ability to penetrate existing, developing and emerging foreign and domestic markets, which also depends on economic and political conditions, foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates. Further, it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, while the list of factors presented here is considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. The consequences of material differences in the results as compared to those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which -17- could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, operations or liquidity. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities, including Environmental Matters PPG is involved in a number of lawsuits and claims, both actual and potential, including some that it has asserted against others, in which substantial monetary damages are sought. These lawsuits and claims relate to product liability, contract, patent, environmental, antitrust and other matters arising out of the conduct of PPG's business. See Note 9, "Commitments and Contingent Liabilities," to the condensed financial statements in this Form 10-Q for an expanded description of certain of these lawsuits. PPG's lawsuits and claims against others include claims against insurers and other third parties with respect to actual and contingent losses related to environmental and other matters. As discussed in Note 9, except with respect to any PPG contribution arising out of a possible voluntary settlement of asbestos claims, the amount of which cannot be predicted, management believes that, in the aggregate, the outcome of all lawsuits and claims involving PPG will not have a material effect on PPG's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. It is PPG's policy to accrue expenses for environmental contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Reserves for environmental contingencies are exclusive of claims against third parties and are not discounted. As of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, PPG had reserves for environmental contingencies totaling $84 million. Pre-tax charges against income for environmental remediation costs for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 totaled $7 million and $6 million, respectively. Cash outlays related to such environmental remediation for each of the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 aggregated $7 million. Management anticipates that the resolution of the Company's environmental contingencies will occur over an extended period of time. The pre-tax charge for environmental remediation costs for 2001 is expected to be in the range of $20 million to $30 million. It is possible, however, that technological, regulatory and enforcement developments, the results of environmental studies and other factors could alter this expectation. In management's opinion, the Company operates in an environmentally sound manner and the outcome of the Company's environmental contingencies will not have a material effect on PPG's financial position or liquidity. In addition to the amounts currently reserved, the Company may be subject to loss contingencies related to environmental matters estimated to be as much as $200 million to $400 million, which range is unchanged from December 31, 2000. Such unreserved losses are reasonably possible but are not currently considered to be probable of occurrence. Although insurers and other third parties may cover a portion of these costs, to the extent they are incurred, any potential recovery is not included in this unreserved exposure to future loss. The Company's environmental contingencies are expected to be resolved over an extended period of time. Although the unreserved exposure to future loss relates to all sites, a significant portion of such exposure involves three operating plant sites. Initial remedial actions are occurring at these sites. Studies to determine the nature of the contamination are reaching completion and the need for additional remedial actions, if any, is presently being evaluated. The loss contingencies related to the remaining portion of such unreserved exposure include significant unresolved issues such as the nature and extent of contamination, if any, at sites and the methods that may have to be employed should remediation be required. -18- With respect to certain waste sites, the financial condition of any other potentially responsible parties also contributes to the uncertainty of estimating PPG's final costs. Although contributors of waste to sites involving other potentially responsible parties may face governmental agency assertions of joint and several liability, in general, final allocations of costs are made based on the relative contributions of wastes to such sites. PPG is generally not a major contributor to such sites. The impact of evolving programs, such as natural resource damage claims, industrial site reuse initiatives and state voluntary remediation programs, also adds to the present uncertainties with regard to the ultimate resolution of this unreserved exposure to future loss. The Company's assessment of the potential impact of these environmental contingencies is subject to considerable uncertainty due to the complex, ongoing and evolving process of investigation and remediation, if necessary, of such environmental contingencies. A major customer of one of the Company's Asian coatings joint ventures is experiencing financial difficulties. Should this customer be unable to pay the amounts owed to our investee or cease operations, our loss would be limited to the carrying value of the Company's investment in the joint venture which was approximately $20 million as of June 30, 2001. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk - ------------------------------------------------------------------- With the exception of natural gas swap and option contracts, there were no material changes in the Company's exposure to market risk from December 31, 2000. See Note 8, "Derivative Financial Instruments," to the condensed financial statements in the Form 10-Q for an expanded description of these market risks. -19- PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings - -------------------------- In the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, it was reported that the Company has been a defendant in lawsuits involving claims alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos. In many of the cases, the plaintiffs allege that the Company should be liable for injuries involving asbestos-containing thermal insulation products manufactured and distributed by Pittsburgh Corning Corporation (PC). The Company and Corning Incorporated are each 50% shareholders of PC. On April 16, 2000, PC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Federal Bankruptcy Court in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Accordingly in the first quarter of 2000, the Company recorded an after-tax charge of $35 million for the write-off of all of its equity investment in PC. As a consequence of the bankruptcy filing and the various motions and orders in that proceeding, the asbestos litigation against PC and PPG has been stayed, and the filing of additional asbestos suits against them has been enjoined, until November 30, 2001. During the pendency of the stay, interested parties, including PC and PPG, among others, have been engaged in discussions to determine whether a settlement of all current and potential asbestos claims can be agreed on within the context of the PC bankruptcy proceeding. These settlement discussions involve numerous, complex issues. Accordingly, it is impossible to predict whether or on what terms a voluntary settlement, if any, on the part of PPG might be reached. Item 2. Change in Securities and Use of Proceeds - ------------------------------------------------- Directors who are not also Officers of the Company receive Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors and the Directors' Common Stock Plan. Common Stock Equivalents are hypothetical shares of Common Stock having a value on any given date equal to the value of a share of Common Stock. Common Stock Equivalents earn dividend equivalents that are converted into additional Common Stock Equivalents but carry no voting rights or other rights of a holder of Common Stock. The Common Stock Equivalents credited to Directors under both plans are exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as private offerings made only to Directors of the Company in accordance with the provisions of the plans. Under the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, each Director must defer receipt of such compensation as the Board mandates. Currently, the Board mandates deferral of one-third of each payment of the basic annual retainer of each Director. Each Director may also elect to defer the receipt of (1) an additional one-third of each payment of the basic annual retainer, (2) all of the basic annual retainer, or (3) all compensation. All deferred payments are held in the form of Common Stock Equivalents. Payments out of the deferred accounts are made in the form of Common Stock of the Company (and cash as to any fractional Common Stock Equivalent). In the second quarter of 2001, the Directors, as a group, were credited with 5,869 Common Stock Equivalents under this Plan. The values of the Common Stock Equivalents, when credited, ranged from $53.15 to $54.09. Under the Directors' Common Stock Plan, each Director who neither is nor was an employee of the Company is credited annually with Common Stock Equivalents worth one-half of the Director's basic annual retainer. Upon termination of service, the Common Stock Equivalents held in a Director's account are converted to and paid in Common Stock of the Company (and cash as to any fractional Common Stock Equivalent). In the second quarter of 2001, the Directors, as a group, received 2,917 Common Stock Equivalents under this Plan. The value of each Common Stock Equivalent, when credited, ranged from $51.05 to $54.09. -20- Item 6.
