This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report being filed by Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the "Company") due to the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Each of Dow Inc. and TDCC is filing information in this report on its own behalf and neither company makes any representation to the information relating to the other company.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements often address expected future business and financial performance, financial condition, and other matters, and often contain words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “opportunity,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “would” and similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words or phrases.
Forward-looking statements are based on current assumptions and expectations of future events that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that are beyond Dow’s control, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements and speak only as of the date the statements were made. These factors include, but are not limited to: sales of Dow’s products; Dow’s expenses, future revenues and profitability; the continuing global and regional economic impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic and other public health-related risks and events on Dow’s business; any sanction, export restrictions, supply chain disruptions or increased economic uncertainty related to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; capital requirements and need for and availability of financing; unexpected barriers in the development of technology, including with respect to Dow's contemplated capital and operating projects; Dow's ability to realize its commitment to carbon neutrality on the contemplated timeframe; size of the markets for Dow’s products and services and ability to compete in such markets; failure to develop and market new products and optimally manage product life cycles; the rate and degree of market acceptance of Dow’s products; significant litigation and environmental matters and related contingencies and unexpected expenses; the success of competing technologies that are or may become available; the ability to protect Dow’s intellectual property in the United States and abroad; developments related to contemplated restructuring activities and proposed divestitures or acquisitions such as workforce reduction, manufacturing facility and/or asset closure and related exit and disposal activities, and the benefits and costs associated with each of the foregoing; fluctuations in energy and raw material prices; management of process safety and product stewardship; changes in relationships with Dow’s significant customers and suppliers; changes in consumer preferences and demand; changes in laws and regulations, political conditions or industry development; global economic and capital markets conditions, such as inflation, market uncertainty, interest and currency exchange rates, and equity and commodity prices; business or supply disruptions; security threats, such as acts of sabotage, terrorism or war including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; weather events and natural disasters; disruptions in Dow’s information technology networks and systems; and risks related to Dow’s separation from DowDuPont Inc. such as Dow’s obligation to indemnify DuPont de Nemours, Inc. and/or Corteva, Inc. for certain liabilities.
Where, in any forward-looking statement, an expectation or belief as to future results or events is expressed, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of management and expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. A detailed discussion of principal risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that Dow faces. There may be other risks and uncertainties that Dow is unable to identify at this time or that Dow does not currently expect to have a material impact on its business. If any of those risks or uncertainties develops into an actual event, it could have a material adverse effect on Dow’s business. Dow and TDCC assume no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by securities and other applicable laws.

NOTE 1 – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Basis of Presentation
Dow Inc. is the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("TDCC" and together with Dow Inc., "Dow" or the "Company"). The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. and TDCC were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 ("2021 10-K").
As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Transactions between TDCC and Dow Inc. are treated as related party transactions for TDCC. See Note 21 for additional information.
Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation and the term "Dow Silicones" means Dow Silicones Corporation, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.
15
NOTE 2 – SEPARATION FROM DOWDUPONT
For additional information on the separation from DowDuPont Inc. ("DowDuPont"), see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K.
Agreements Related to the Separation and Distribution
The impacts of indemnifications and other post-separation matters relating to Dow's separation from DowDuPont were primarily included in the consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. At June 30, 2022, the Company had assets of $19 million (zero at December 31, 2021) included in "Other current assets" and $2 million ($20 million at December 31, 2021) included in "Noncurrent receivables," and liabilities of $123 million ($148 million at December 31, 2021) included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $33 million ($39 million at December 31, 2021) included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc. related to these agreements.
In addition, the Company deferred a portion of the cash distribution received from DowDuPont at separation and recorded an associated liability with an offset to "Retained earnings" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc. At June 30, 2022, $10 million ($15 million at December 31, 2021) of this liability was recorded in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $96 million ($96 million at December 31, 2021) was recorded in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets of Dow Inc.
NOTE 3 – REVENUE
Revenue Recognition
The majority of the Company's revenue is derived from product sales. The Company's revenue related to product sales was 99 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 (98 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021). The remaining sales were primarily related to the Company's insurance operations and licensing of patents and technologies. Product sales consist of sales of the Company's products to manufacturers and distributors. The Company considers order confirmations or purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master supply agreements, to be contracts with a customer. The Company enters into licensing arrangements in which it licenses certain rights of its patents and technology to customers. Revenue from the Company’s licenses for patents and technology is derived from sales-based royalties and licensing arrangements based on billing schedules established in each contract.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. At June 30, 2022, the Company had unfulfilled performance obligations of $911 million ($829 million at December 31, 2021) related to the licensing of technology. The Company expects revenue to be recognized for the remaining performance obligations over the next five years.
The remaining performance obligations are for product sales that have expected durations of one year or less, product sales of materials delivered through a pipeline for which the Company has elected the right to invoice practical expedient, or variable consideration attributable to royalties for licenses of patents and technology. The Company has received advance payments from customers related to long-term supply agreements that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract, with remaining contract terms that range up to 18 years. The Company will have rights to future consideration for revenue recognized when product is delivered to the customer. These payments are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
16
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by operating segment and business, as the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows. See details in the tables below:

Contract Assets and Liabilities
The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets include amounts related to the Company's contractual right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are recognized in revenue when the performance obligations are met. "Contract liabilities - current" primarily reflects deferred revenue from prepayments from customers for product to be delivered in 12 months or less and royalty payments that are deferred and will be recognized in 12 months or less. "Contract liabilities - noncurrent" includes advance payments that the Company has received from customers related to long-term supply agreements and royalty payments that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract.
Revenue recognized in the first six months of 2022 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $105 million (approximately $180 million in the first six months of 2021). In the first six months of 2022 and 2021, the amount of contract assets reclassified to receivables as a result of the right to the transaction consideration becoming unconditional was insignificant.
17
The following table summarizes contract assets and liabilities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

1.The decrease from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022 was due to the recognition of revenue on long-term product supply agreements and reclassification of deferred royalty payments from noncurrent to current.
NOTE 4 – RESTRUCTURING AND ASSET RELATED CHARGES - NET
Charges for restructuring programs and other asset related charges, which includes asset impairments, are recorded in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income. For additional information on the Company's restructuring programs, see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K.
2020 Restructuring Program

At June 30, 2022, $44 million of the reserve balance was included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" ($112 million at December 31, 2021) and $54 million was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" ($56 million at December 31, 2021) in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $585 million inception-to-date under the 2020 Restructuring Program, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $287 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $208 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $90 million.
The Company expects to incur additional costs in the future related to its restructuring activities. Future costs are expected to include demolition costs related to closed facilities and restructuring implementation costs; these costs will be recognized as incurred. The Company also expects to incur additional employee-related costs, including involuntary termination benefits, related to its other optimization activities. These costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
2022 Asset Related Charges
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded pretax asset related charges of $186 million due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict and the expectation that certain assets will not be recoverable. These charges included the write-down of inventory, the recording of bad debt reserves and the impairment of other assets. Asset related charges by segment were as follows: $31 million in Packaging & Specialty Plastics, $109 million in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure, $16 million in Performance Materials & Coatings and $30 million in Corporate.

Debt Covenants and Default Provisions
There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to the Company's outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first six months of 2022. For additional information on the Company's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K.
NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
A summary of the Company's commitments and contingencies can be found in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.
Environmental Matters
Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. At June 30, 2022, the Company had accrued obligations of $1,238 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs ($1,220 million at December 31, 2021), including $241 million for the remediation of Superfund sites ($237 million at December 31, 2021). This is management’s best estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which the Company has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to approximately two times that amount. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, however, that the possibility is remote that costs in excess of the range disclosed will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. As new or additional information becomes available and/or certain spending trends become known, management will evaluate such information in determination of the current estimate of environmental liability.
Litigation
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
Each quarter, Union Carbide reviews claims filed, settled and dismissed, as well as average settlement and resolution costs by disease category. Union Carbide also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as the nature of pending claims, trial experience of Union Carbide and other asbestos defendants, current spending for defense and processing costs, significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, trends in the tort system, and their respective effects on expected future resolution costs. Union Carbide's management considers these factors in conjunction with the most recent actuarial study and determines whether a change in the estimate is warranted. Based on Union Carbide's review of 2022 activity, it was determined that no adjustment to the accrual was required at June 30, 2022.
Union Carbide’s total asbestos-related liability for pending and future claims and defense and processing costs was $977 million at June 30, 2022 ($1,016 million at December 31, 2021). At June 30, 2022, approximately 27 percent of the recorded claim liability related to pending claims and approximately 73 percent related to future claims.
Dow Silicones Chapter 11 Related Matters
At June 30, 2022, Dow Silicones and its insurers have made life-to-date payments of $1,817 million to the settlement program administered by an independent claims office (the “Settlement Facility”), created to resolve breast implant and other product liability claims. At June 30, 2022, Dow Silicones estimates that it will be obligated to contribute an additional $106 million to the Settlement Facility which was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets ($130 million at December 31, 2021, which was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets).
Indemnifications with Corning Incorporated
The Company had indemnification assets with Corning Incorporated of $96 million at June 30, 2022 ($95 million at December 31, 2021), which were included primarily in "Noncurrent receivables" in the consolidated balance sheets.

Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Patent Infringement Matter
As a result of a 2017 damages judgment related to the patent infringement matter, Nova Chemicals Corporation ("Nova") was ordered to pay the Company $645 million Canadian dollars, plus pre- and post-judgment interest, for which the Company received payment of $501 million U.S. dollars in July 2017. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $341 million ($341 million at December 31, 2021) included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" in the consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the damages judgment.
Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Ethylene Asset Matter
As a result of a 2019 damages judgment related to the ethylene asset matter, Nova was ordered to pay the Company $1.43 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.08 billion U.S. dollars). In October 2019, Nova paid $1.08 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $0.8 billion U.S. dollars) directly to the Company, and remitted $347 million Canadian dollars to the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") for the tax account of one of the Company's subsidiaries. In March 2020, the Company received the full refund from the CRA, equivalent to $259 million U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2022, $323 million ($323 million at December 31, 2021) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the Company's consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the damages judgment.
Brazilian Tax Credits
In March 2017, the Federal Supreme Court of Brazil (“Brazil Supreme Court”) ruled in a leading case that a Brazilian value-added tax ("ICMS") should not be included in the base used to calculate a taxpayer's federal contribution on total revenue known as PIS/COFINS (the “2017 Decision”). Previously, three of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries filed lawsuits challenging the inclusion of ICMS in their calculation of PIS/COFINS, seeking recovery of excess taxes paid. In response to the 2017 Decision, the Brazilian tax authority filed an appeal seeking clarification of the amount of ICMS tax to exclude from the calculation of PIS/COFINS. In May 2021, the Brazil Supreme Court ruled in a leading case related to the amount of ICMS tax to exclude from the calculation of PIS/COFINS, which resolved two of the lawsuits filed by the Company and, in May 2022, a court decision related to the remaining lawsuit, ruling in favor of the Company's Brazilian subsidiary, became final and unappealable. As a result, the Company recorded pretax gains of $112 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $61 million in the second quarter of 2021 for certain excess PIS/COFINS paid from 2009 to 2019, plus applicable interest, which the Company expects to apply to future required federal tax payments, and the reversal of related liabilities. The pretax gains were recorded in “Cost of sales” in the consolidated statements of income. At June 30, 2022, related tax credits available and expected to be applied to future required federal tax payments totaled $139 million ($52 million at December 31, 2021).
Guarantees
The following table provides a summary of the final expiration, maximum future payments and recorded liability included in the consolidated balance sheets for guarantees:
Guarantees | Jun 30, 2022 | Dec 31, 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||

Guarantees | 2038 | $ | 1,248 | $ | 210 | 2038 | $ | 1,273 | $ | 220 |
1.In addition, TDCC has provided guarantees, in proportion to the Company's 35 percent ownership interest, of all future interest payments that will become due on Sadara’s project financing debt during the grace period, which Dow's share is estimated to be $443 million at June 30, 2022 ($446 million at December 31, 2021). Based on Sadara's current forecasted cash flows, the Company does not expect to be required to perform under the guarantees.
Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, committed accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others (via delivery of cash or other assets) if specified triggering events occur. With guarantees, such as commercial or financial contracts, non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation of the Company to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. The majority of the Company’s guarantees relate to debt of nonconsolidated affiliates, which have expiration dates ranging from less than 1 year to 16 years. The Company’s current expectation is that future payment or performance related to the non-performance of others is considered remote.
26
TDCC has entered into guarantee agreements related to Sadara, a nonconsolidated affiliate. Sadara reached an agreement with its lenders to re-profile its outstanding project financing debt in the first quarter of 2021. In conjunction with the debt re-profiling, TDCC entered into a guarantee of up to approximately $1.3 billion of Sadara’s debt, proportionate to the Company's 35 percent ownership interest. The debt re-profiling also includes a grace period until June 2026, during which Sadara is obligated to make interest-only payments which are guaranteed by TDCC in proportion to the Company’s 35 percent ownership interest. As part of the debt re-profiling, Sadara established a $500 million revolving credit facility guaranteed by Dow, which would be used to fund Dow’s pro-rata share of any potential shortfall during the grace period. Based on Sadara's current forecasted cash flows, recent ability to satisfy all current and near term debt maturities and no significant scheduled debt repayments over the next five years, the Company does not expect Sadara to draw on the facility.

8.Estimated liability for TDCC's guarantee of Sadara's debt which is included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 12 for additional information.
For equity securities calculated at net asset value per share (or its equivalent), the Company had $98 million in private market securities and $22 million in real estate at June 30, 2022 ($106 million in private market securities and $22 million in real estate at December 31, 2021). There are no redemption restrictions and the unfunded commitments on these investments were $77 million at June 30, 2022 ($59 million at December 31, 2021).
For assets classified as Level 3 measurements, fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs including assumptions where there is little, if any, market activity. The level 3 asset value represents the fair value of the Company's investment in a nonconsolidated affiliate. The unfunded commitment on the investment was $72 million at June 30, 2022.
40
For liabilities classified as Level 3 measurements, fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs including assumptions where there is little, if any, market activity. The fair value of the Company’s accrued liability related to the guarantee of Sadara’s debt is in proportion to the Company’s 35 percent ownership interest in Sadara. The estimated fair value of the guarantee was calculated using a "with" and "without" method. The fair value of the debt was calculated "with" the guarantee less the fair value of the debt "without" the guarantee. The "with" and "without" values were calculated using a discounted cash flow method based on contractual cash flows as well as projected prepayments made on the debt by Sadara. See Note 12 for further information on guarantees classified as Level 3 measurements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. |
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report being filed by Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the "Company") due to the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Each of Dow Inc. and TDCC is filing information in this report on its own behalf and neither company makes any representation to the information relating to the other company.
Pursuant to General Instruction H(1)(a) and (b) for Form 10-Q "Omission of Information by Certain Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries," TDCC is filing this Form 10-Q with a reduced disclosure format.
Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation and the term "Dow Silicones" means Dow Silicones Corporation, both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.
Russia and Ukraine Conflict
In February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine resulting in the United States, Canada, the European Union and other countries imposing economic sanctions on Russia. Dow is monitoring and evaluating the broader economic impact, including sanctions imposed, the potential for additional sanctions and any responses from Russia that could directly affect the Company’s supply chain, business partners or customers. At the time of this filing, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
Dow stands in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and denounces Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Dow fully supports and is fully complying with the sanctions implemented against Russia and the efforts of the international community to reestablish peace and safeguard democracy. Dow is prioritizing the safety and security of its colleagues in Ukraine and Russia. Dow had previously suspended all purchases of feedstocks and energy from Russia and has significantly reduced its operations and product offerings in the country. Dow has also stopped all investments in Russia and is only supplying limited essential goods to Russia, including food packaging, hygiene, cleaning and sanitation products and household goods.
In Russia, Dow operates a coatings facility, which is currently idled, as well as a consolidated joint venture which operates a polyurethanes systems facility. Dow’s sales from materials produced in Russia represents less than 1 percent of total net sales and net income.
Prior to the invasion, Dow’s business activities in Ukraine were limited to non-manufacturing facilities, including sales and marketing offices.
The Company is also providing assistance with evacuation, financial assistance, housing and other support to help employees and their families in Ukraine and is activating similar processes for the Company's Russian employees. Additionally, Dow announced humanitarian support, including a cash match for donations by Dow employees, to meet immediate needs in Ukraine and nearby countries aiding refugees.
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded pretax asset related charges of $186 million due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict and the expectation that certain assets will not be recoverable. The Company's remaining net asset exposure is not significant.
OUTLOOK
Dow continues to see long-term fundamentals driving growth across its end-markets. While the near-term market conditions are dynamic, Dow will continue to leverage its diverse, global portfolio and flexible operating model to capitalize on attractive growth opportunities. Dow's actions to enhance the resiliency of its business position it well to deliver across a variety of economic environments. Dow's disciplined and balanced approach to capital allocation has delivered higher mid-cycle earnings, an improved credit profile, and cash generation above pre-pandemic levels. Dow remains well-positioned to continue advancing its decarbonize and grow strategy while delivering attractive shareholder remuneration.

Research and development ("R&D") expenses totaled $217 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $228 million in the second quarter of 2021. R&D expenses decreased in the second quarter of 2022 primarily due to lower fringe benefit expenses driven by stock market declines. R&D expenses for the first six months of 2022 were $435 million, compared with $422 million in the first six months of 2021. R&D expenses for the first six months of 2022 increased primarily due to higher performance-based compensation costs, which more than offset a decrease in fringe benefit expenses due to stock market declines.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses totaled $435 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $440 million in the second quarter of 2021. SG&A expenses decreased in the second quarter of 2022 due to lower fringe benefit expenses driven by stock market declines. For the first six months of 2022, SG&A expenses were $933 million, compared with $806 million in the first six months of 2021. SG&A expenses for the first six months of 2022 increased primarily due to higher performance-based compensation costs and an increase in bad debt reserves, which more than offset a decrease in fringe benefit expenses due to stock market declines.
Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization of intangibles was $85 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $100 million in the first quarter of 2021. In the first six months of 2022, amortization of intangibles was $173 million, compared with $201 million in the first six months of 2021. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on intangible assets.
Restructuring and Asset Related Charges - Net
Asset Related Charges
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded pretax asset related charges of $186 million due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict and the expectation that certain assets will not be recoverable.

Sundry Income (Expense) – Net
Sundry income (expense) – net includes a variety of income and expense items such as foreign currency exchange gains and losses, dividends from investments, gains and losses on sales of investments and assets, non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit plan credits or costs, losses on early extinguishment of debt and certain litigation matters.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, Sundry income (expense) - net was income of $75 million and $78 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with expense of $3 million and income of $6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The second quarter of 2022 included non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and gains on the sales of assets and investments. These were partially offset by foreign currency exchange losses and an $8 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (related to Corporate). In addition, Dow Inc. included an $8 million charge associated with agreements entered into with DuPont de Nemours, Inc. ("DuPont") and Corteva, Inc. ("Corteva") as part of the separation and distribution (related to Corporate). The second quarter of 2021 included a $102 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (related to Corporate) and foreign currency exchange losses. These were partially offset by non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and gains on the sales of assets and investments. In addition, Dow Inc. included a $5 million charge associated with agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva as part of the separation and distribution (related to Corporate).
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Sundry income (expense) - net was income of $223 million and $214 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with income of $125 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The first six months of 2022 included non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and gains on the sales of assets and investments. These were partially offset by foreign currency exchange losses and an $8 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (related to Corporate). In addition, Dow Inc. included a $4 million gain associated with agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva as part of the separation and distribution (related to Corporate). The first six months of 2021 included non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and gains on the sales of assets and investments, which were partially offset by a $102 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt (related to Corporate) and foreign currency exchange losses. In addition, Dow Inc. included a $5 million charge associated with agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva as part of the separation and distribution (related to Corporate).
Interest Expense and Amortization of Debt Discount
Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $165 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $187 million in the second quarter of 2021. Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $332 million in the first six months of 2022, compared with $383 million in the first six months of 2021. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to the liability management actions taken in 2021.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most earnings from the Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2022 was 22.5 percent and 22.4 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with 21.3 percent and 21.1 percent for the second quarter of 2021. For the first six months of 2022, the effective tax rate was 23.5 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, compared with 22.3 percent and 22.2 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, for the first six months of 2021. The effective tax rate increased in 2022 primarily due to return to provision adjustments and the recognition of uncertain tax positions in multiple jurisdictions.
Net Income Available for Common Stockholder(s)
Dow Inc.
Net income available for Dow Inc. common stockholders was $1,661 million, or $2.26 per share, in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $1,901 million, or $2.51 per share, in the second quarter of 2021.

SEGMENT RESULTS
Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT as this is the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT by segment includes all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate.
PACKAGING & SPECIALTY PLASTICS
The Packaging & Specialty Plastics operating segment consists of two highly integrated global businesses: Hydrocarbons & Energy and Packaging and Specialty Plastics. The segment employs the industry’s broadest polyolefin product portfolio, supported by the Company’s proprietary catalyst and manufacturing process technologies. These differentiators, plus collaboration at the customer’s design table, enable the segment to deliver more reliable, durable, higher-performing solutions designed for recyclability and enhanced plastics circularity and sustainability. The segment serves customers, brand owners and ultimately consumers in key markets including food and specialty packaging; industrial and consumer packaging; health and hygiene; caps, closures and pipe applications; consumer durables; mobility and transportation; and infrastructure. Ethylene is transferred to downstream derivative businesses at market-based prices, which are generally equivalent to prevailing market prices for large volume purchases. This segment also includes the results of The Kuwait Styrene Company K.S.C.C. and The SCG-Dow Group, as well as a portion of the results of EQUATE Petrochemical Company K.S.C.C. ("EQUATE"), The Kuwait Olefins Company K.S.C.C. ("TKOC"), Map Ta Phut Olefins Company Limited ("Map Ta Phut") and Sadara, all joint ventures of the Company.
The Company is responsible for marketing a majority of Sadara products outside of the Middle East zone through the Company's established sales channels. As part of this arrangement, the Company purchases and sells Sadara products for a marketing fee. In 2021, Dow and the Saudi Arabian Oil Company agreed to and began transitioning the marketing rights and responsibilities for Sadara’s finished products to levels more consistent with each partner’s equity ownership, which is being implemented through 2026. This transition will not impact equity earnings but is expected to reduce the Company's sales of Sadara products over the five year period.

Local price increased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific. Currency had an unfavorable impact on sales in both businesses and was driven by EMEAI and Asia Pacific. Volume declines in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals were partially offset by gains in Industrial Solutions. Volume increased in Industrial Solutions in all geographic regions, driven by higher supply availability and strong demand for pharmaceutical, agricultural and oil and gas-related applications. Volume in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals decreased in all geographic regions, excluding Latin America, driven by lower demand, particularly for consumer durables, combined with reduced supply from planned maintenance turnaround activity and third-party outages.
Operating EBIT was $426 million in the second quarter of 2022, down $222 million from Operating EBIT of $648 million in the second quarter of 2021. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to rising raw material and energy costs; lower equity earnings at Sadara and the Map Ta Phut joint ventures; and increased planned maintenance turnaround activity, which were partially offset by higher selling prices.
Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $8,894 million in the first six months of 2022, up 14 percent from net sales of $7,822 million in the first six months of 2021, with local price up 21 percent, volume down 3 percent, and an unfavorable currency impact of 4 percent. Local price increased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, primarily driven by strong supply and demand dynamics and rising energy prices. Currency had an unfavorable impact on sales in both businesses, driven by EMEAI. Volume in Industrial Solutions increased in all geographic regions driven by improved supply availability as the year-ago period was impacted by Winter Storm Uri, and by strong demand in agricultural, pharmaceutical and oil and gas-related applications. Volume in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals decreased in all geographic regions, except Latin America, primarily due to lower supply availability from Sadara, slowing demand, particularly for consumer durables, combined with reduced supply from planned maintenance turnaround activity and third-party outages.
Operating EBIT was $1,087 million in the first six months of 2022, up $113 million from Operating EBIT of $974 million in the first six months of 2021. Operating EBIT increased primarily due to local price increases in both businesses and was partially offset by increases in raw material and energy costs and lower equity earnings at Sadara and the Map Ta Phut joint ventures.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,367 million at June 30, 2022 and $2,988 million at December 31, 2021, of which $1,397 million at June 30, 2022 and $1,745 million at December 31, 2021 was held by subsidiaries in foreign countries, including U.S. territories. For each of its foreign subsidiaries, Dow makes an assertion regarding the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the balance available to be repatriated to the United States.
Cash held by foreign subsidiaries for permanent reinvestment is generally used to finance the subsidiaries' operational activities and future foreign investments. Dow has the ability to repatriate additional funds to the U.S., which could result in an adjustment to the tax liability for foreign withholding taxes, foreign and/or U.S. state income taxes and the impact of foreign currency movements. At June 30, 2022, management believed that sufficient liquidity was available in the United States. The Company has and expects to continue repatriating certain funds from its non‑U.S. subsidiaries that are not needed to finance local operations; however, these particular repatriation activities have not and are not expected to result in a significant incremental tax liability to the Company.

Dow Inc. Non-GAAP Cash Flow Measures
Free Cash Flow
Dow defines free cash flow as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," less capital expenditures. Under this definition, Free Cash Flow represents the cash generated by Dow from operations after investing in its asset base. Free Cash Flow, combined with cash balances and other sources of liquidity, represents the cash available to fund obligations and provide returns to shareholders. Free Cash Flow is an integral financial measure used in the Company's financial planning process.
Operating EBITDA
Dow defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., "Income before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items.
Cash Flow Conversion (Operating EBITDA to Cash Flow from Operations)
Dow defines Cash Flow Conversion (Operating EBITDA to Cash Flow from Operations) as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," divided by Operating EBITDA. Management believes Cash Flow Conversion is an important financial metric as it helps the Company determine how efficiently it is converting its earnings into cash flow.
55
These financial measures are not recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and should not be viewed as alternatives to U.S. GAAP financial measures of performance. All companies do not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner and, accordingly, Dow's definitions may not be consistent with the methodologies used by other companies.

Liquidity & Financial Flexibility
The Company’s primary source of incremental liquidity is cash flows from operating activities. The generation of cash from operations and the Company's ability to access capital markets is expected to meet the Company’s cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, debt maturities, contributions to pension plans, dividend distributions to stockholders, share repurchases and other needs. In addition to cash from operating activities, the Company’s current liquidity sources also include TDCC's U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs, committed and uncommitted credit facilities, committed accounts receivable facilities, a U.S. retail note program (“InterNotes®”) and other debt markets.
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position with all of its committed credit facilities undrawn and fully available at June 30, 2022. Cash and committed and available forms of liquidity were $12.2 billion at June 30, 2022. The Company also has no substantive long-term debt maturities due until 2027. Additional details on sources of liquidity are as follows:
Commercial Paper
TDCC issues promissory notes under its U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs. TDCC had $200 million of commercial paper outstanding at June 30, 2022. TDCC maintains access to the commercial paper market at competitive rates. Amounts outstanding under TDCC's commercial paper programs during the period may be greater, or less than, the amount reported at the end of the period. Subsequent to June 30, 2022, TDCC issued approximately $600 million of commercial paper.
56
Committed Credit Facilities
The Company also has the ability to access liquidity through TDCC's committed and available credit facilities. At June 30, 2022, TDCC had total committed and available credit facilities of $8.4 billion. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on committed and available credit facilities.
Committed Accounts Receivable Facilities
In addition to the above committed credit facilities, the Company maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in the U.S. where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to $900 million, may be sold at any point in time. The Company also maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in Europe where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to €500 million, may be sold at any point in time. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold $141 million ($391 million in the first six months of 2022) of receivables under the U.S. and Europe committed accounts receivable facilities. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Company-Owned Life Insurance
The Company has investments in company-owned life insurance ("COLI") policies, which are recorded at their cash surrender value as of each balance sheet date. The Company has the ability to monetize its investment in its COLI policies as an additional source of liquidity. The Company had no outstanding monetization of its existing COLI policies' surrender value at June 30, 2022. For additional information, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K.
Uncommitted Credit Facilities
The Company has entered into various uncommitted bilateral credit arrangements as a potential source of excess liquidity. These lines can be used to support short-term liquidity needs and for general purposes, including letters of credit. The Company had no drawdowns outstanding at June 30, 2022.

In the third quarter of 2022, TDCC intends to file a prospectus supplement under this shelf registration to register an undetermined amount of securities for issuance under InterNotes®. Also, in the third quarter of 2022, TDCC intends to file a prospectus supplement under this shelf registration to register an undetermined amount of securities for issuance under a medium-term notes program.
57
Debt
As the Company continues to maintain its strong balance sheet and financial flexibility, management is focused on net debt (a non-GAAP financial measure), as the Company believes this is the best representation of its financial leverage at this point in time. As shown in the following table, net debt is equal to total gross debt minus "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Marketable securities."

1.Included in "Other current assets" in the consolidated balance sheets.
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company redeemed $750 million aggregate principal amount of 3.625 percent notes due May 2026.
The Company may at any time repurchase certain debt securities in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions subject to: the applicable terms under which any such debt securities were issued, certain internal approvals of the Company, and applicable laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdiction in which any such potential transactions might take place. This in no way obligates the Company to make any such repurchases nor should it be considered an offer to do so.
TDCC's public debt instruments and primary, private credit agreements contain, among other provisions, certain customary restrictive covenant and default provisions. TDCC's most significant debt covenant with regard to its financial position is the obligation to maintain the ratio of its consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization at no greater than 0.70 to 1.00 at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of loans under the Five Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Revolving Credit Agreement") equals or exceeds $500 million. The ratio of TDCC's consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement was 0.38 to 1.00 at June 30, 2022. Management believes TDCC was in compliance with all of its covenants and default provisions at June 30, 2022. For information on TDCC's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K. There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to TDCC’s outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first six months of 2022.
While taking into consideration the current economic environment, management expects that the Company will continue to have sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility to meet all of its business obligations.
58
Credit Ratings
At June 30, 2022, TDCC's credit ratings were as follows:
Credit Ratings | Long-Term Rating | Short-Term Rating | Outlook | ||||||||
Fitch Ratings | BBB+ | F2 | Positive | ||||||||
Moody’s Investors Service | Baa1 | P-2 | Stable | ||||||||
Standard & Poor’s | BBB | A-2 | Positive |

Dividends
Dow Inc.
Dow Inc. has paid dividends on a quarterly basis since the separation from DowDuPont and expects to continue to do so, subject to approval by the Board. The dividends declared by the Board align to the Company's strategy announced in 2018 of returning approximately 45 percent of operating net income1 to the shareholders through the dividend and total shareholder remuneration of approximately 65 percent, when including share repurchases, over the economic cycle. The following table summarizes cash dividends declared by the Board and paid to common stockholders of record by Dow Inc. in 2022:

TDCC
TDCC has committed to fund Dow Inc.'s dividends paid to common stockholders and share repurchases, as approved by Dow Inc.'s Board from time to time, as well as certain governance expenses. Funding is accomplished through intercompany loans. TDCC's Board reviews and determines a dividend distribution to Dow Inc. to settle the intercompany loans. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, TDCC declared and paid a dividend to Dow Inc. of $1,333 million ($2,454 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022). At June 30, 2022, TDCC's intercompany loan balance with Dow Inc. was insignificant. See Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Share Repurchase Program
On April 1, 2019, Dow Inc.'s Board ratified the share repurchase program originally approved on March 15, 2019, authorizing up to $3 billion to be spent on the repurchase of the Company's common stock, with no expiration date. The Company completed the April 1, 2019 share repurchase program in the second quarter of 2022. On April 13, 2022, Dow Inc.'s Board approved a new share repurchase program authorizing up to $3 billion for the repurchase of the Company's common stock, with no expiration date. The Company repurchased $800 million of its common stock in the second quarter of 2022 ($1,400 million in the first six months of 2022). At June 30, 2022, approximately $2,975 million of the new share repurchase program authorization remained available for repurchases. As previously announced, the Company intends to, at a minimum, repurchase shares to cover dilution. With the announcement of the new share repurchase program, the Company may from time to time expand its share repurchases beyond dilution, based on a number of factors including macroeconomic conditions, free cash flow generation, and the Dow share price. Any share repurchases, when coupled with the Company's dividends, is intended to implement the long-term strategy of ensuring shareholder remuneration is approximately 65 percent over the economic cycle.

59
Pension Plans
The Company has both funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans that cover employees in the United States and a number of other countries.

See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K for additional information related to the Company's pension plans.
Restructuring
The actions related to the 2020 Restructuring Program are expected to result in additional cash expenditures of $98 million, primarily through the end of 2022 and into 2023, consisting of severance and related benefit costs and costs associated with exit and disposal activities, including contract cancellation penalties and environmental remediation. Restructuring implementation costs, primarily decommissioning and demolition activities related to asset actions, are expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $20 million, primarily through the end of 2022. Restructuring implementation costs totaled $10 million in the second quarter of 2022 ($20 million in the first six months of 2022).

The Company expects more than $300 million in incremental annual run rate Operating EBITDA generation by the end of 2025 related to digital acceleration, with an additional one-time $100 million in structural working capital efficiency gains, driven in part by enhanced planning from digital tools. The activities related to digital acceleration are expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $140 million, primarily through the end of 2022. Digital acceleration expenses totaled $51 million in the second quarter of 2022 ($92 million in the first six months of 2022).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Off-balance sheet arrangements are obligations the Company has with nonconsolidated entities related to transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements. The Company holds variable interests in joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of these joint ventures and therefore is not required to consolidate these entities (see Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, committed accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others if specific triggering events occur. Additional information related to guarantees can be found in the "Guarantees" section of Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fair Value Measurements
See Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information concerning fair value measurements.
OTHER MATTERS
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2021 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s critical accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2021 10-K. Since December 31, 2021, there have been no material changes in the Company’s accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates.
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past four decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos‑containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises, and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products.
The table below provides information regarding asbestos-related claims pending against Union Carbide and Amchem based on criteria developed by Union Carbide and its external consultants:
Asbestos-Related Claim Activity | 2022 | 2021 | ||||||
Claims unresolved at Jan 1 | 8,747 | 9,126 | ||||||
Claims filed | 2,388 | 2,081 | ||||||
Claims settled, dismissed or otherwise resolved | (2,275) | (2,184) | ||||||
Claims unresolved at Jun 30 | 8,860 | 9,023 | ||||||
Claimants with claims against both Union Carbide and Amchem | (2,106) | (2,498) | ||||||
Individual claimants at Jun 30 | 6,754 | 6,525 |
Plaintiffs’ lawyers often sue numerous defendants in individual lawsuits or on behalf of numerous claimants. As a result, the damages alleged are not expressly identified as to Union Carbide, Amchem or any other particular defendant, even when specific damages are alleged with respect to a specific disease or injury. In fact, there are no personal injury cases in which only Union Carbide and/or Amchem are the sole named defendants. For these reasons and based upon Union Carbide’s litigation and settlement experience, Union Carbide does not consider the damages alleged against Union Carbide and Amchem to be a meaningful factor in its determination of any potential asbestos-related liability.

Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
No material developments regarding this matter occurred in the first six months of 2022. For a current status of this matter, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Environmental Proceedings
On May 17, 2021, the Company received a civil complaint from the State of Texas ("State") on behalf of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. The complaint, filed in the 250th District Court of Travis County, Texas, alleges environmental violations at the Company's Freeport, Texas, site involving 12 discrete air emissions events. The State is seeking monetary relief of no more than $1 million and injunctive relief to prevent recurrence. On August 31, 2021, the State informed the Company that it would be including additional air emissions events in the complaint, which may impact the monetary relief sought by the State. Discussions between the Company and the Texas Office of the Attorney General are ongoing.
On February 3, 2022, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) proposed a draft administrative order to resolve alleged violations at the Rohm and Haas Chemicals facility in Kankakee, Illinois, relating to a storage tank at the site that does not have certain control equipment specified by EPA Clean Air Act regulations. This issue was self-disclosed by the facility to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency in 2015. Negotiations with the agencies are ongoing.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS |
Since December 31, 2021, there have been no material changes to the Company's Risk Factors, except as noted below:
Global Economic Considerations: The Company operates in a global, competitive environment which gives rise to operating and market risk exposure.
The Company sells its broad range of products and services in a competitive, global environment, and competes worldwide for sales on the basis of product quality, price, technology and customer service. Increased levels of competition could result in lower prices or lower sales volume, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. Sales of the Company's products are also subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations; trade agreements; import and export controls; taxes; and duties and tariffs. The imposition of additional regulations, controls, taxes and duties and tariffs or changes to bilateral and regional trade agreements could result in lower sales volume, which could negatively impact the Company’s results of operations.
Economic conditions around the world, and in certain industries in which the Company does business, also impact sales price and volume. As a result, market uncertainty or an economic downturn driven by inflationary pressures; political tensions; war, including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the related sanctions and export restrictions; terrorism; epidemics; pandemics; or political instability in the geographic regions or industries in which the Company sells its products could reduce demand for these products and result in decreased sales volume, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations.
In February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine resulting in the United States, Canada, the European Union and other countries imposing economic sanctions on Russia. Dow suspended all purchases of feedstocks and energy from Russia and has significantly reduced its operations and product offerings in the country. Dow has also stopped all investments in Russia and is only supplying limited essential goods to Russia. These actions have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. However, the fluidity and continuation of the conflict may result in additional economic sanctions and other impacts which could have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. These include decreased sales; supply chain and logistics disruptions; volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates; inflationary pressures on raw materials and energy; and heightened cybersecurity threats.
63
In addition, volatility and disruption of financial markets could limit customers’ ability to obtain adequate financing to maintain operations, which could result in a decrease in sales volume and have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s global business operations also give rise to market risk exposure related to changes in inflation, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices and other market factors such as equity prices. To manage such risks, the Company enters into hedging transactions, where deemed appropriate, pursuant to established guidelines and policies. If the Company fails to effectively manage such risks, it could have a negative impact on its results of operations.
