NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts

1. Segment Information

The Company has two reportable segments and two operating segments based on its geographic locations: the Americas and Europe. These two segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations. Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the segments or to glass manufacturing are reported with Retained corporate costs and other. These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, certain equity investments and the remaining businesses in the Asia Pacific region that do not meet the criteria of an individually reportable segment after the sale of the Company’s Australia and New Zealand businesses in 2020. Retained corporate costs and other also includes certain headquarters administrative and facilities costs and certain incentive compensation and other benefit plan costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reportable segments.

The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings before interest income, interest expense, and benefit (provision) for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments, as well as certain retained corporate costs. The Company’s management, including the chief operating decision maker (defined as our chief executive officer), uses segment operating profit, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. Segment operating profit is not a recognized term under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and, therefore, does not purport to be an alternative to earnings before income taxes. Further, the Company's measure of segment operating profit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows:

Consolidated totals	$	8,873	$	8,832	$	8,874

2. Revenue

Revenue is recognized at a point in time when obligations under the terms of the Company’s contracts and related purchase orders with its customers are satisfied. This occurs with the transfer of control of glass containers, which primarily takes place when products are shipped from the Company’s manufacturing or warehousing facilities to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods, which includes estimated provisions for rebates, discounts, returns and allowances. Sales, value-added, and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company’s payment terms are based on customary business practices and can vary by customer type. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. Also, the Company elected to account for shipping and handling costs as a fulfillment cost at the time of shipment.

For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company had no material bad debt expense, and there were no material contract assets, contract liabilities or deferred contract costs recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

3. Credit Losses

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through its sales of glass containers to customers. The Company’s trade receivables from customers are due within one year or less. The Company assesses each customer’s ability to pay for the glass containers it sells to them by conducting a credit review. The credit review considers the expected billing exposure and timing for payment and the customer’s established credit rating or the Company’s assessment of the customer’s creditworthiness, based on an analysis of their financial statements when a credit rating is not available. The Company also considers contract terms and conditions, country and political risk, and business strategy in its evaluation. A credit limit is established for each customer based on the outcome of this review. The Company may require collateralized asset support or a prepayment to mitigate credit risk. The Company monitors its ongoing credit exposure through the active review of customer balances against contract terms and due dates, including timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution and payment confirmation. The Company may employ collection agencies and legal counsel to pursue the recovery of defaulted receivables.

At June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company reported $957 million and $855 million of accounts receivable, respectively, net of allowances of $29 million and $32 million, respectively. Changes in the allowance were not material for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021.

4. Inventories

Major classes of inventory at June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 are as follows:


	June 30,		December 31,		June 30,
	2022		2021		2021
Finished goods	$	618	$	659	$	636
Raw materials		115		119		122
Operating supplies		42		38		38
	$	775	$	816	$	796

5. Derivative Instruments

The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities, which consist of natural gas forwards and collars, foreign exchange option and forward contracts, interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps. The valuation of these instruments is determined primarily using the income approach, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. Natural gas prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. Estimates of the fair value of foreign currency and commodity derivative instruments are determined using exchange traded prices and rates. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and, accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Commodity Forward Contracts and Collars Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

The Company has entered into commodity forward contracts and collars related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objective of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in future market prices of natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows.

An unrecognized loss of $1 million at June 30, 2022 related to the commodity forward contracts and collars was included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“Accumulated OCI”), and will be reclassified into earnings in the period when the commodity forward contracts expire.

Cash Flow Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company has variable-interest rate borrowings denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the borrowing subsidiaries. As a result, the Company is exposed to fluctuations in the currency of the borrowing against the subsidiaries’ functional currency. In addition, one of the Company’s non-U.S. dollar-functional-currency subsidiaries purchases a raw material in the normal course of business for use in glass container production that is priced in U.S. dollars. Such purchases expose the Company to exchange rate fluctuations. The Company uses derivatives to manage these exposures and designates these derivatives as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk.

An unrecognized gain of $1 million at June 30, 2022, an unrecognized gain of $6 million at December 31, 2021 and an unrecognized gain of $9 million at June 30, 2021, related to these cross-currency swaps, was included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

Fair Value Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company has fixed interest rate borrowings denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the borrowing subsidiaries. As a result, the Company is exposed to fluctuations in the currency of the borrowing against the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The Company uses derivatives to manage these exposures and designates these derivatives as fair value hedges of foreign exchange risk. Approximately $6 million of the components were excluded from the assessment of effectiveness and are included in Accumulated OCI at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Fair Value Hedges

The Company enters into interest rate swaps in order to maintain a capital structure containing targeted amounts of fixed and floating-rate debt and manage interest rate risk. The Company’s fixed-to-variable interest rate swaps are accounted for as fair value hedges. The relevant terms of the swap agreements match the corresponding terms of the notes, and therefore, there is no hedge ineffectiveness. The Company recorded the net of the fair market values of the swaps as a long-term liability and short-term asset, along with a corresponding net decrease in the carrying value of the hedged debt.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments it holds in non-U.S. subsidiaries and uses cross-currency swaps to partially hedge this exposure.

Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

The Company uses short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The Company also uses foreign exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency exchange rate risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables, payables, and loans, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies.

When a decision is made to take restructuring actions, the Company manages and accounts for them programmatically apart from the ongoing operations of the business. Information related to major programs is presented separately, while minor initiatives are presented on a combined basis. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, no major restructuring programs were in effect.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company implemented several discrete restructuring initiatives and recorded restructuring and other charges of $11 million. These charges consisted of employee costs, such as severance and benefit-related costs and other exit costs (including related consulting costs attributed to restructuring of managed services activities) at a number of the Company’s locations in the Americas and Europe. These restructuring

charges were discrete actions and are expected to approximate the total cumulative costs for those actions as no significant additional costs are expected to be incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, these charges were recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations. The Company expects that the majority of the remaining cash expenditures related to the accrued employee and other exit costs will be paid out over the next several years.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company implemented several discrete restructuring initiatives and recorded restructuring and other charges of $8 million. These charges consisted of employee costs, such as severance and benefit-related costs and other exit costs (including related consulting costs attributed to restructuring of managed services activities) at a number of the Company’s locations in the Americas and Europe. These restructuring charges were discrete actions and are expected to approximate the total cumulative costs for those actions as no significant additional costs are expected to be incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, these charges were recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations. The Company expects that the majority of the remaining cash expenditures related to the accrued employee and other exit costs will be paid out over the next several years.

The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write-downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying value exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell. The Company classified the assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets in the period that the measurement was taken as Level 3 (third-party appraisal) in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements. For the asset impairments recorded through June 30, 2022, the remaining carrying value of the impaired assets was approximately $0.

8. Income Taxes

The Company calculates its interim tax provision using the estimated annual effective tax rate (“EAETR”) methodology in accordance with ASC 740-270. The EAETR is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income, exclusive of discrete items. The tax effects of discrete items are then included to arrive at the total reported interim tax provision. The determination of the EAETR is based upon a number of estimates, including the estimated annual pretax ordinary income or loss in each tax jurisdiction in which the Company operates. The tax effects of discrete items are recognized in the tax provision in the quarter they occur, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Depending on various factors, such as the item’s significance in relation to total income and the rate of tax applicable in the jurisdiction to which it relates, discrete items in any quarter can materially impact the reported effective tax rate. The Company’s annual effective tax rate may be affected by the mix of earnings in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, and factors such as changes in tax laws, tax rates or regulations, changes in business, changing interpretation of existing tax laws or regulations, the finalization of tax audits and reviews, as well as other factors. As such, there can be significant volatility in interim tax provisions. The annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. Federal tax rate of 21% primarily because of varying non-U.S. tax rates and the impact of the U.S. valuation allowance.

The Company is currently under income tax examination in various tax jurisdictions in which it operates, including Brazil, Canada, Colombia, France, Indonesia, Mexico and Peru. The years under examination range from 2004 through 2021. The Company has received tax assessments in excess of established reserves. The Company is contesting these tax assessments, and will continue to do so, including pursuing all available remedies, such as appeals and litigation, if necessary. The Company believes that adequate provisions for all income tax uncertainties have been made. However, if tax assessments are settled against the Company at amounts in excess of established reserves, it could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company settled a tax audit in Mexico equal to reserves previously established of $38 million.

The Company presents debt issuance costs in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as a deduction of the carrying amount of the related debt liability.

On March 25, 2022, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries entered into a Credit Agreement and Syndicated Facility Agreement (the “Agreement”), which refinances in full the previous credit agreement (the “Previous Agreement”). The Agreement provides for up to $2.8 billion of borrowings pursuant to term loans, revolving credit facilities and a delayed draw term loan facility. The delayed draw term loan facility allows for a one-time borrowing of up to $600 million, the proceeds of which were to be used, in addition to other consideration paid by the Company and/or its subsidiaries, to directly or indirectly fund an asbestos settlement trust (the “Paddock Trust”) to be established in connection with the confirmed plan of reorganization of Paddock Enterprises, LLC (“Paddock”) proposed by Paddock, O-I Glass and certain other parties in Paddock’s Chapter 11 case (see Note 10 for more information). Subsequent to quarter end, on July 18, 2022, the Company drew down the $600 million delayed draw term loan to fund, together with other consideration, the Paddock Trust. The term loans mature, and the revolving credit facilities terminate, in March 2027. The delayed draw term loan matures in December 2023. The Company recorded approximately $2 million of additional interest charges for third-party fees and the write-off of unamortized fees related to the Agreement in the first quarter of 2022.

At June 30, 2022, the Agreement includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $950 million multicurrency revolving credit facility and $950 million in term loan A facilities ($946 million outstanding balance at June 30, 2022, net of debt issuance costs). At June 30, 2022, the Company had unused credit of $1.24 billion available under the Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Agreement at June 30, 2022 was 3.13%.

The Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain indebtedness and liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations.

The Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Agreement), that requires the Company not to exceed a ratio of 2.50x calculated by dividing consolidated Net Indebtedness that is then secured by Liens on property or assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries by Consolidated EBITDA, as each term is defined and as described in the Credit Agreement. The Secured Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Secured Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum.

Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Agreement. In such an event, the Company could not request additional borrowings under the revolving facilities, and all amounts outstanding under the Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. Upon the occurrence and for the duration of a payment event of default, an additional default interest rate equal to 2.0% per annum will apply to all overdue obligations under the Agreement. If an event of default occurs under the Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under the indentures governing the Company’s outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Agreement. In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow additional funds under the Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

The Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Agreement) determines pricing under the Agreement. The interest rate on borrowings under the Agreement is, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate, Term SOFR or, for non-U.S. dollar borrowings only, the Eurocurrency Rate (each as defined in the Agreement), plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The margins range from 1.00% to 1.75% for Term SOFR loans and Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.00% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans. In addition, a commitment fee is payable on the unused revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.35% per annum linked to the Total Leverage Ratio.

Obligations under the Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate and certain other excluded assets, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries. Such obligations are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity investments in certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign obligations, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. All obligations under the Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, and certain foreign obligations under the Agreement are guaranteed by certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company.

On February 10, 2022, the Company announced the commencement, by an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of a tender offer to purchase for cash up to $250.0 million aggregate purchase price of its outstanding (i) 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, (ii) 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025, (iii) 6.375% Senior Notes due 2025 and (iv) 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027. On February 28, 2022, the Company repurchased $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 and $88.2 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027. Following the repurchase, $550.0 million and $611.8 million aggregate principal amounts of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 and 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027, respectively, remained outstanding. The repurchases were funded with cash on hand. The Company recorded approximately $16 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the write-off of unamortized finance fees related to the senior note repurchases conducted in the first quarter of 2022.

issuance costs, totaled approximately $395 million and, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem the $310 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 4.00% Senior Notes due 2023 and approximately $128 million of term loan A borrowings under the Previous Agreement. The Company recorded approximately $13 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and write-off of unamortized finance fees related to these redemptions.

In order to maintain a capital structure containing appropriate amounts of fixed and floating-rate debt, the Company has entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements. These interest rate swap agreements were accounted for as fair value hedges (see Note 5 for more information).

The Company assesses its capital raising and refinancing needs on an ongoing basis and may enter into additional credit facilities and seek to issue equity and/or debt securities in the domestic and international capital markets if market conditions are favorable. Also, depending on market conditions, the Company may elect to repurchase portions of its debt securities in the open market.

The carrying amounts reported for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates approximate fair value. Fair values for the Company’s significant fixed rate debt obligations are based on published market quotations, and are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Fair values at June 30, 2022 of the Company’s significant fixed rate debt obligations are as follows:


	Principal		Indicated Market
	Amount		Price		Fair Value
Senior Notes:
5.875%, due 2023	$	550	$	99.12	$	545
3.125%, due 2024 (€725 million)		758		94.66		718
6.375%, due 2025		300		95.50		287
5.375%, due 2025		300		94.57		284
2.875%, due 2025 (€500 million)		523		90.97		476

10. Contingencies

Asbestos

From 1948 to 1958, one of the Company’s former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based pipe and block insulation material containing asbestos. The Company sold its insulation business unit in April 1958. The Company historically received claims from individuals alleging bodily injury and death as a result of exposure to asbestos from this product (“Asbestos Claims”). Some Asbestos Claims were brought as personal injury lawsuits that typically allege various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seek compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages.

Predominantly, however, Asbestos Claims were historically presented to the Company under administrative claims-handling agreements, which the Company had in place with many plaintiffs’ counsel throughout the country (“Administrative Claims”). Administrative Claims required evaluation and negotiation regarding whether particular claimants qualify under the criteria established by the related claims-handling agreements. The criteria for Administrative Claims included verification of a compensable illness and a reasonable probability of exposure to a product manufactured by the Company’s former business unit during its manufacturing period ending in 1958. Plaintiffs’ counsel presented, and the Company negotiated, Administrative Claims under these various agreements in differing quantities, at different times, and under a variety of conditions.

On December 26 and 27, 2019, the Company implemented the Corporate Modernization, whereby O-I Glass became the new parent entity with Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. (“O-I Group”) and Paddock as direct, wholly owned

subsidiaries, with Paddock as the successor-by-merger to O-I (the “Corporate Modernization”). The Company’s legacy asbestos-related liabilities remained within Paddock, with the Company’s glass-making operations remaining under O-I Group. As part of the Corporate Modernization transactions, O-I Glass entered into a support agreement with Paddock that required O-I Glass to provide funding to Paddock for all permitted uses, subject to the terms of the support agreement. The key objectives of the Paddock support agreement were to ensure that Paddock retained the ability to fund the costs and expenses of managing the Chapter 11 process, and ultimately settle Asbestos Claims through the establishment of a trust as described below and fund certain other liabilities.

On January 6, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), Paddock voluntarily filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) to equitably and finally resolve all of its current and future Asbestos Claims. O-I Glass and O-I Group were not included in the Chapter 11 filing. During the course of the Chapter 11 proceeding, Paddock operated in the ordinary course and with court protection from Asbestos Claims by operation of the automatic stay in Paddock’s Chapter 11 filing, which stayed ongoing litigation and submission of claims against Paddock outside the Bankruptcy Court between the Petition Date and the Effective Date (as defined below). Upon the Effective Date, Asbestos Claims were channeled to the Paddock Trust as more fully described herein.

The bankruptcy process provided a centralized forum to fully resolve presently pending and anticipated future lawsuits and claims associated with asbestos. Paddock’s goals in its Chapter 11 case were to (i) confirm and achieve the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of a plan of reorganization under section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, hereby utilizing this specialized provision to establish the Paddock Trust, to address all current and future Asbestos Claims, and (ii) obtain permanent injunctive relief, protecting the Company, each of its current and former affiliates and certain other related parties (the “Company Protected Parties”) from any Asbestos Claims based on products manufactured, sold, used, and/or distributed by Owens-Illinois, Inc in exchange for funding of the Paddock Trust.

Following the Petition Date, the activities of Paddock became subject to review and oversight by the Bankruptcy Court until the Effective Date. As a result, during that period, the Company no longer had exclusive control over Paddock’s activities. Therefore, Paddock was deconsolidated as of the Petition Date, and its assets and liabilities, which primarily included $47 million of cash, the legacy asbestos-related liabilities, as well as certain other assets and liabilities as of the Petition Date, were derecognized from the Company’s consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis. Simultaneously, the Company recognized a liability related to the Paddock support agreement, as described above, of $471 million as required under applicable accounting standards. The deconsolidation and Paddock support agreement resulted in a loss of approximately $14 million, which was reflected as a charge in the Company’s first quarter 2020 operating results. Additionally, the deconsolidation resulted in an investing outflow of $47 million in the Company’s first quarter 2020 consolidated cash flows.

On February 23, 2021, Paddock and O-I Glass commenced a court-approved non-binding mediation process regarding the terms of a potential consensual plan of reorganization pursuant to section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code with the Official Committee of Asbestos Personal Injury Claimants (the “ACC” or “Asbestos Claimants Committee”) appointed in the Paddock Chapter 11 case as the representative of current Paddock asbestos claimants, and the Legal Representative of Future Asbestos Claimants (the “FCR” or “Future Claimants’ Representative”) appointed in the Paddock Chapter 11 case as the representative of future Paddock asbestos claimants. On April 26, 2021, the Company announced that Paddock, the ACC and the FCR reached an agreement in principle, supported by O-I Glass, by accepting a proposal from the mediators setting forth total consideration to fund a trust created under section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code upon the Effective Date.

This agreement in principle, which was subject to definitive documentation and satisfaction of certain conditions, was implemented through the Plan (as defined below) and resolved as of the Effective Date, among other things, the potential liability of Paddock and the Company Protected Parties for pending and future personal injury claims related to exposure to asbestos-containing products that were allegedly manufactured, distributed, used and/or sold by Owens-Illinois, Inc. Under the Plan, which implements the agreement in principle, the Paddock Trust was created pursuant to the provisions of section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and was funded with $610 million in total consideration (“Settlement Consideration”). In exchange for the Settlement Consideration, each of the Company Protected Parties received the benefit of a release from Paddock, and Paddock and the Company Protected Parties received the benefit of

an injunction under section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code channeling Asbestos Claims to the Paddock Trust and permanently enjoining the assertion of Asbestos Claims against Paddock and the Company Protected Parties. In addition, the Paddock Trust, Paddock and O-I Glass (on behalf of itself and the Company Protected Parties) entered into an agreement through which the Paddock Trust agreed to indemnify the Company Protected Parties against any attempts to evade the channeling injunction or to otherwise bring Asbestos Claims against any Company Protected Party after the Effective Date.

The agreement in principle was subject to, among other things, finalization of certain documentation necessary to implement the Plan, acceptance of the Plan by at least 75% of Paddock’s current asbestos claimants voting on such Plan, and confirmation of the Plan by the Bankruptcy Court and approval of the injunction in favor of Paddock and the Company Protected Parties by the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (“District Court”). Subsequent to quarter end, on the Effective Date of July 8, 2022, each of the foregoing conditions has been satisfied or waived, the Plan became effective, and Asbestos Claims against Paddock and the Company Protected Parties became permanently enjoined. On July 18, 2022, the Settlement Consideration was provided, and on July 20, 2022, the Trust Note (as defined below) was redeemed.

In connection with the agreement in principle, the Company recorded a charge of $154 million related to its potential liability under the Paddock support agreement as a recognizable subsequent event in the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, primarily related to an increase to Paddock’s asbestos reserve estimate in consideration for the channeling injunction to be included in the Plan protecting Company Protected Parties from Asbestos Claims, as well as certain other adjustments to Paddock’s assets and liabilities, including estimated professional fees and expenses to be incurred in confirming and implementing the Plan. This charge was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Consolidated Results of Operations.

On January 12, 2022, Paddock, O-I Glass, the Future Claimants’ Representative and the Asbestos Claimants’ Committee (collectively, the “Plan Proponents”) jointly filed the Plan of Reorganization for Paddock Enterprises, LLC Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, dated January 12, 2022 (including any supplements and exhibits thereto, either in its present form or as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Plan”). Amended versions of the Plan were subsequently filed on February 14, 2022, April 1, 2022, and May 24, 2022. The Plan incorporates the agreement in principle described herein and thereby provides for a resolution of Asbestos Claims, a resolution of (and a release in favor of the Company and its affiliates for) all claims arising out of the Corporate Modernization and provides that upon the Effective Date, all obligations owed under the support agreement would terminate. Consistent with the Plan, the support agreement was deemed rejected as of the Effective Date, and all obligations between the parties to the support agreement were terminated.

In connection with the Plan, the Plan Proponents also filed the Disclosure Statement for Plan of Reorganization for Paddock Enterprises, LLC Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, dated January 12, 2022 (including any supplements and exhibits thereto, either in its present form or as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Disclosure Statement”). The Disclosure Statement was subsequently amended on February 14, 2022. The Bankruptcy Court held a hearing to consider approval of the Disclosure Statement on February 16, 2022. On February 17, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving, among other things, the Disclosure Statement and the procedures for soliciting votes on the Plan.

On February 23, 2022, consistent with the Bankruptcy Court’s order, Paddock directed Kroll Restructuring Administration, the claims agent in Paddock’s Chapter 11 case, to distribute solicitation packages to holders of Asbestos Claims eligible to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Holders of Asbestos Claims (or their attorneys) entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan were required to submit their ballots on or before April 8, 2022 at 4:00 p.m. (Prevailing Eastern Time) in order for their votes to be counted. On April 25, 2022, Paddock reported the results of the votes on the Plan. As detailed in the report filed with the Bankruptcy Court, more than 99% in number and 99% in amount of asbestos claimants who voted on the Plan voted to accept the Plan, and as such, the Plan was accepted by current asbestos claimants in the requisite percentages required by the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Court held a hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan on May 16, 2022. On May 26, 2022, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan and recommending that the District Court affirm such confirmation. On June 22, 2022, the District Court entered an order affirming the confirmation order previously issued by the Bankruptcy Court. On July 8, 2022, the

Effective Date of the Plan occurred. Pursuant to the Plan, Paddock issued a promissory note (the “Trust Note”) in the principal amount of $8.5 million to the Paddock Trust on the Effective Date. On July 18, 2022, the Company funded the Paddock Trust with $601.5 million, comprising $600 million borrowed under the Agreement and $1.5 million from cash. On July 20, 2022, Paddock redeemed the Trust Note by paying $8.5 million in cash to the Paddock Trust.

Other Matters

In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a $69 million gain based on a favorable court ruling in Brazil, which will allow the Company to recover indirect taxes paid in previous years. This gain was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations, as well as $28 million of income tax expense that was recognized as a discrete item in the second quarter of 2021.

Other litigation is pending against the Company, in some cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based, including additional information, negotiations, settlements and other events.

14. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:


	Three months ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Numerator:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	252	$	118
Denominator (in thousands):
Denominator for basic earnings per share-weighted average shares outstanding		155,683		157,902
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options and other		3,268		2,889
Denominator for diluted earnings per share-adjusted weighted average shares outstanding		158,951		160,791
Basic earnings per share:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	1.62	$	0.75
Diluted earnings per share:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	1.59	$	0.73

The diluted earnings per share computation for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 excludes 804,953 and 772,521 weighted average shares of common stock, respectively, due to their antidilutive effect, which includes options to purchase, unvested restricted stock units and performance vested restricted share units. Options to purchase shares were excluded because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the average market price of the shares of common stock.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Numerator:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	340	$	21
Denominator (in thousands):
Denominator for basic earnings per share-weighted average shares outstanding		155,765		157,737
Effect of dilutive securities:

Basic earnings per share:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	2.18	$	0.13
Diluted earnings per share:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	2.14	$	0.13

The diluted earnings per share computation for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 excludes 1,190,747 and 1,331,298 weighted average shares of common stock, respectively, due to their antidilutive effect, which includes options to purchase, unvested restricted stock units and performance vested restricted share units. Options to purchase shares were excluded because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the average market price of the shares of common stock.

15. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Income taxes paid in cash were as follows:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2022		2021
U.S.	$	6	$	4
Non-U.S.		93		38
Total income taxes paid in cash	$	99	$	42

Interest paid, including note repurchase premiums, in cash for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $112 million and $97 million, respectively. Cash interest for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included $12 million of note repurchase premiums.

The Company uses various factoring programs to sell certain receivables to financial institutions as part of managing its cash flows. At June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the amount of receivables sold by the Company was $453 million, $481 million and $440 million, respectively. These amounts included $158 million, $180 million and $206 million at June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021, and June 30, 2021, respectively, for trade receivable amounts factored under supply chain financing programs linked to commercial arrangements with key customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s use of its factoring programs resulted in a decrease in cash provided by operating activities of $28 million compared to an increase to cash provided by operating activities of $4 million for the same period in 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded expenses related to these factoring programs of approximately $3 million and $3 million, respectively, as interest expense.

16. COVID-19 Impacts

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures. The Company is actively monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which negatively impacted its business in 2020 and, to a lesser extent, in 2021 and the first six months of 2022 and may negatively impact its business and results of operations in the future.

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates particularly as it relates to estimates reliant on forecasts and other assumptions reasonably available to the Company and the uncertain future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions impact the Company’s business and financial results will depend on future developments including, but not limited to, the continued spread, duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic; the occurrence, spread, duration and severity of any subsequent wave or waves of outbreaks after the initial outbreak has subsided; the actions taken by the U.S. and foreign governments to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, address its impact or respond to the reduction in global and local economic activity; the occurrence, duration and severity of a global, regional or national recession, depression or other sustained adverse market event; the impact of the developments described above on its customers and suppliers; and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to:

●

allowance for doubtful accounts and credit losses;

●

carrying value of inventory; and

●

the carrying value of goodwill and other long-lived assets.

There was not a material impact to the above estimates in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2021. The Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors, could result in material changes to the estimates and material impacts to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in future reporting periods.

17. Divestitures and Sale Leaseback of Land and Building

In May 2022, the Company completed the sale of the land and building related to its Brampton, Ontario, Canada plant to an affiliate of Crestpoint Real Estate Investments Ltd. (“Crestpoint”). Net proceeds were approximately $190 million and the Company recorded a pretax gain of approximately $182 million (approximately $158 million after tax) on the sale, which is reflected in Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations.

In connection with this transaction, the Company entered into a lease for the land and building with Crestpoint for the Brampton, Ontario plant for an initial term of 10 years. The lease requires the Company to make rent payments of approximately $7.3 million in the first year, gradually increasing to approximately $9.1 million in the tenth year. The lease is classified as operating and was recorded as a right-of-use asset (included in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet) with a balance of approximately $59 million, a current operating lease liability (included in Other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet) with a balance of approximately $4 million and a noncurrent operating lease liability (included in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet) with a balance of approximately $55 million as of June 30, 2022.

In March 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Cristar TableTop S.A.S. (“Cristar”) business to Vidros Colombia S.A.S, an affiliate of Nadir Figueiredo S.A., a glass tableware producer based in Brazil. Gross proceeds received were approximately $96 million and the related pretax gain recorded was approximately $55 million (approximately $16 million after tax and non-controlling interest) in the first quarter of 2022. The pretax gain was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations.

In January 2021, the Company completed the sale of its plant in Argentina. Gross proceeds were approximately $10 million, and the gain on the sale was not material.

18. Subsequent Events

Paddock Support Agreement Liability

Subsequent to the second quarter of 2022, on July 8, 2022, the Effective Date of the Plan occurred, the Paddock support agreement was terminated, and the channeling injunction went into effect. Pursuant to the Plan, Paddock issued the Trust Note in the principal amount of $8.5 million to the Paddock Trust on the Effective Date. On July 18, 2022, the Company drew down the $600 million delayed draw term loan and funded the Paddock Trust with $601.5 million, comprising $600 million borrowed under the Agreement and $1.5 million from cash. On July 20, 2022, Paddock redeemed the Trust Note by paying $8.5 million in cash to the Paddock Trust.

Having funded the entire $610 million required by the Plan to the Paddock Trust, on July 20, 2022, the Pledge Agreement made by the Company was terminated, the pledge of the shares of Paddock to the Paddock Trust was released and the Company regained exclusive control over Reorganized Paddock’s activities. Therefore, at that date in the third quarter of 2022, Reorganized Paddock was reconsolidated, and its remaining assets and liabilities were recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis. The funding of the Paddock Trust and certain related expenses will result in an estimated operating cash outflow of $620 million in the Company’s third quarter 2022 consolidated cash flows.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings before interest income, interest expense, and provision (benefit) for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments, as well as certain retained corporate costs. The segment data presented below is prepared in accordance with general accounting principles for segment reporting. The lines titled “reportable segment totals” in both net sales and segment operating profit represent non-GAAP measures. Management has included reportable segment totals below to facilitate the discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and believes this information allows the Board of Directors, management, investors and analysts to better understand the Company’s financial performance. The Company’s management, including the chief operating decision maker (defined as its chief executive officer) uses segment operating profit, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating profit is not, however, intended as an alternative measure of operating results as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and it continues to impact the United States and other countries across the world. To limit the spread of COVID-19, governments have taken various actions, including the issuance of stay-at-home orders and social distancing guidelines. As a result, many businesses have adjusted, reduced or suspended operating activities, either due to requirements under government orders or as a result of a reduction in demand for many products from direct or ultimate customers. Fortunately, the manufacture of glass containers has been largely viewed as essential to the important food and beverage value chain in the countries in which the Company operates. However, the Company is still impacted by broader supply chain issues and, in some cases, certain end use categories that it serves are not deemed essential. While the Company’s plants continued to operate as essential businesses, some plants suspended operations or cut back on shifts for a portion of 2020 due to government actions to address COVID-19. Additional suspensions and cutbacks may occur as the impacts from COVID-19 and related responses continue to develop.

The following discussion describes the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the Company’s shipment and production levels in 2020 and, to a lesser extent, in 2021 and the first six months of 2022. The Company is actively monitoring the continued impact of the pandemic, which could negatively impact its business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position beyond the second quarter of 2022.

Financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows (dollars in millions):

Executive Overview — Quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

Net sales in the second quarter of 2022 were $118 million, or approximately 7%, higher than in the same quarter in 2021 primarily due to higher prices. Net sales were negatively impacted by the unfavorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the sale of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia on March 1, 2022.

Earnings before income taxes were $130 million higher in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was due to higher segment operating profit, a gain on a sale leaseback transaction entered into by the Company for its land and building related to its plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada and lower net interest expense, partially offset by the non-recurrence of a gain recorded on a Brazilian indirect tax credit in the second quarter of 2021 and higher retained corporate and other costs in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Segment operating profit for reportable segments in the second quarter of 2022 was $25 million higher compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher sales and production levels, strong operating performance, benefits from margin expansion initiatives and higher net prices, slightly offset by higher logistics costs and elevated engineering project activity.

On April 26, 2021, the Company announced that its subsidiary, Paddock Enterprises, LLC (“Paddock”), had reached an agreement in principle to accept the terms of a mediator’s proposal regarding a consensual plan of reorganization in Paddock’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy case. The agreement in principle provided for total consideration of $610 million to fund the Paddock Trust (as defined in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company recorded a charge of $154 million related to its potential liability under the Paddock support agreement during the first fiscal quarter of 2021 primarily related to an increase to Paddock’s asbestos reserve estimate in consideration for the channeling injunction to be included in the Plan (as defined in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) protecting the Company and its affiliates from Asbestos Claims (as defined in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Subsequent to quarter end, in July 2022, the Plan became effective, and the Paddock Trust was funded by the Company and Paddock with consideration totaling $610 million.

Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2022 decreased $6 million compared to the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to lower debt levels, partially offset by higher interest rates than in the second quarter of 2021.

For the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $252 million, or $1.59 per share (diluted), compared to net earnings attributable to the Company of $118 million, or $0.73 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2021. As discussed below, net earnings attributable to the Company in both periods included items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments. These items increased net earnings attributable to the Company by $137 million, or $0.86 per share, in the second quarter of 2022 and increased net earnings attributable to the Company by $32 million, or $0.19 per share, in the second quarter of 2021.

Results of Operations — Second Quarter of 2022 Compared with Second Quarter of 2021

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales in the second quarter of 2022 were $1,778 million compared with $1,660 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $118 million, or approximately 7%. Glass container shipments, in tons, were up nearly 1% in the second quarter of 2022, but a slightly less favorable mix resulted in a $1 million decrease to net sales compared to the same period in 2021. Higher selling prices increased net sales by $208 million in the second quarter of 2022, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates decreased net sales by $95 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by the weakening of the Euro and the Colombian peso compared to the U.S. dollar. The non-recurrence of the shipments related to the divestiture of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia on March 1, 2022 reduced net sales by approximately $11 million in the second quarter of 2022. Other sales were approximately $17 million higher in the second quarter of 2022 than the same period in the prior year driven by higher machine parts sales to third parties.

The change in net sales of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

Americas: Net sales in the Americas in the second quarter of 2022 were $971 million compared to $890 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $81 million, or approximately 9%. Higher selling prices in the region increased net sales by $92 million in the second quarter of 2022, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments in the region were up nearly 1% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior year second quarter. Lower shipments to beer customers, primarily in North America due to a combination of factors, were offset by higher shipments in most other end use categories across the remainder of the region. These higher shipment levels increased net sales by approximately $2 million in the second quarter of 2022 and more than offset choppy demand patterns and ongoing supply chain challenges, which are expected to continue in 2022. The divestiture of the glass tableware business in Colombia reduced net sales by approximately $11 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales by $2 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, as the Colombian peso weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Europe: Net sales in Europe in the second quarter of 2022 were $765 million compared to $745 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $20 million, or approximately 3%. Glass container shipments in the second quarter of 2022 were up nearly 1%, but a slightly less favorable mix resulted in a $3 million decrease to net sales compared to the second quarter of 2021. Lower shipments to wine customers were offset by higher shipments in most other end use categories. Higher selling prices in Europe increased net sales by $116 million in the second quarter of

2022, driven by the pass through of cost inflation. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates decreased the region’s net sales by approximately $93 million in the second quarter of 2022 as the Euro weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Earnings before Income Taxes and Segment Operating Profit

Earnings before income taxes were $328 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to earnings before income taxes of $198 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $130 million, or 66%. This increase was due to higher segment operating profit, a gain on a sale leaseback transaction entered into by the Company for its land and building related to its plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada and lower net interest expense, partially offset by the non-recurrence of a gain recorded on a Brazilian indirect tax credit in the second quarter of 2021 and higher retained corporate and other costs in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Segment operating profit of the reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. Unallocated corporate expenses and certain other expenses not directly related to the reportable segments’ operations are included in Retained corporate costs and other. For further information, see Segment Information included in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Segment operating profit of reportable segments in the second quarter of 2022 was $257 million, compared to $232 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $25 million, or approximately 11%. This increase was primarily due to higher net prices, higher sales and production levels, strong operating performance, benefits from the Company’s margin expansion initiatives, partially offset by higher logistics costs, elevated engineering project activity and the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency rates.

The change in segment operating profit of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

Reportable segment operating profit - 2022			$	257

Americas: Segment operating profit in the Americas in the second quarter of 2022 was $130 million compared to $124 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $6 million, or 5%. The impact of higher shipments and an improved mix discussed above increased segment operating profit by $7 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. Cost inflation exceeded higher selling prices resulting in a net $5 million decrease to segment operating profit in the second quarter of 2022. Operating costs in the second quarter of 2022 were $12 million lower than in the prior year quarter and included benefits from the region’s margin expansion initiatives, partially offset by furnace events in North America that resulted in higher repair costs and unplanned production downtime. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates decreased segment operating profit by $4 million in the current year period.

In March 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Cristar TableTop S.A.S. (“Cristar”) glass tableware business in Colombia, and in May 2022, the Company completed the sale of its land and building for its Brampton, Ontario, Canada plant in conjunction with a leaseback of this property. The sale of the tableware business and sale leaseback transaction are part of the Company’s portfolio optimization program to divest non-core assets and decapitalize the business through sale-leaseback transactions and redeploy the proceeds to help fund attractive growth opportunities, which primarily include capital expenditures related to expansion projects and investments in the Company’s MAGMA innovation, as well as to reduce debt. The divestiture of the Cristar glass tableware business and nearly two months of additional lease expense associated with the Brampton, Ontario sale leaseback transaction reduced segment operating profit by approximately $4 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Europe: Segment operating profit in Europe in the second quarter of 2022 was $127 million compared to $108 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $19 million, or 18%. The impact of shipments and mix discussed above decreased segment operating profit by $1 million. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation and increased segment operating profit by $47 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to the second quarter of 2021. Elevated engineering project activity more than exceeded the benefits from margin expansion initiatives and cost control measures and increased the region’s operating costs by approximately $13 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of the prior year. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates decreased segment operating profit by $13 million in the current year period. The divestiture of the Le Parfait brand in December 2021 reduced segment operating profit by approximately $1 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

In addition, the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine has caused a significant increase in the price of natural gas and increased price volatility. The Company’s European operations typically purchase natural gas under long-term supply arrangements and frequently agree on price with the relevant supplier in advance of the period in which the natural gas will be delivered, which is shielding the Company from the full impact of increased natural gas prices. However, the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the resulting sanctions, potential sanctions or other adverse repercussions on Russian-sourced energy supplies could cause the Company’s energy suppliers to be unable or unwilling to deliver natural gas at agreed prices and quantities. If this occurs, it will be necessary for the Company to procure natural gas at then-current market prices and subject to market availability and could cause the Company to experience a significant increase in operating costs or result in the temporary or permanent cessation of delivery of natural gas to several of the Company’s manufacturing plants in Europe. In addition, depending on the duration and ultimate outcome of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, future long-term supply arrangements for natural gas may not be available at reasonable prices or at all.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense in the second quarter of 2022 was $46 million compared to $52 million for the second quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to lower debt levels, partially offset by higher interest rates.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was 22.0% compared to 37.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2022 differed from the second quarter of 2021 due to the favorable capital gains tax rate on the sale of the land and building related to the Brampton, Canada plant, as well as a change in mix of geographic earnings.

Net Earnings Attributable to the Company

For the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $252 million, or $1.59 per share (diluted), compared to a net earnings attributable to the Company of $118 million, or $0.73 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2021. Earnings in the second quarter of 2022 and 2021 included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments as set forth in the following table (dollars in millions):

Executive Overview — Six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

Net sales for the first six months of 2022 were $308 million, or approximately 10%, higher than in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher prices and stronger shipments than the prior year period, which was more significantly impacted by COVID-19 and the impact of severe weather in the Americas. Net sales were negatively impacted by the unfavorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the sale of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia on March 1, 2022.

Earnings before income taxes were $365 million higher in the first six months of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was due to higher segment operating profit, the gains on the sale of the land and building of the Company’s plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada, and the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia in the first six months of 2022, as well as the nonoccurrence of the Paddock-related charge in the first six months of 2021, partially offset by the non-recurrence of the gain recorded on a Brazilian indirect tax credit in 2021, higher retained corporate and other costs and higher net interest expense in the first six months of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Segment operating profit for reportable segments in the first six months of 2022 was $81 million higher compared to the first six months of 2021, primarily due to higher sales and production levels, strong operating performance, benefits from margin expansion initiatives, higher net prices and the non-recurrence of severe weather that impacted the Americas in the first quarter of 2021, slightly offset by higher logistics costs and elevated engineering project activity.

Net interest expense for the first half of 2022 increased $9 million compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to higher note repurchase premiums and refinancing fees and charges and higher interest rates, partially offset by lower debt levels.

For the first six months of 2022, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $340 million, or $2.14 per share (diluted), compared to net earnings attributable to the Company of $21 million, or $0.13 per share (diluted), in the first six months of 2021. As discussed below, net earnings in both periods included items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments. These items increased net earnings attributable to the Company by $135 million, or $0.85 per share, in the first six months of 2022 and decreased net earnings attributable to the Company by $122 million, or $0.76 per share, in the first six months of 2021.

Results of Operations — First six months of 2022 compared with first six months of 2021

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales in the first six months of 2022 were $3,469 million compared with $3,161 million for the first six months of 2021, an increase of $308 million, or approximately 10%. Glass container shipments, in tons, were up approximately 3% in the first half of 2022, increasing net sales by approximately $72 million compared to the same period in 2021, which was more significantly impacted by COVID-19 and the impact of severe weather in the Americas. Higher selling prices increased net sales by $348 million in the first six months of 2022, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates decreased net sales by $130 million in the first half of 2022 compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by the weakening of the Euro compared to the U.S. dollar.

The non-recurrence of the shipments related to the divestiture of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia on March 1, 2022 reduced net sales by approximately $15 million in the first six months of 2022. Other sales were approximately $33 million higher in the first half of 2022 than the same period in the prior year driven by higher machine parts sales to third parties.

The change in net sales of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions):


Reportable segment net sales - 2021			$	3,111
Price	$	348
Sales volume and mix		72
Effects of changing foreign currency rates		(130)
Divestitures		(15)

Americas: Net sales in the Americas in the first six months of 2022 were $1,912 million compared to $1,727 million for the first six months of 2021, an increase of $185 million, or approximately 11%. Higher selling prices in the region increased net sales by $172 million in the first half of 2022, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments in the region were up nearly 2% in the first six months of 2022 compared to the prior year period, which was more significantly impacted by COVID-19 and the impact of severe weather that affected the southern United States and Mexico. These higher shipment levels increased net sales by approximately $24 million in the first six months of 2022 and more than offset choppy demand patterns and ongoing supply chain challenges, which are expected to continue in 2022. This was partially offset by the divestiture of the Cristar glass tableware business in March 2022, which reduced net sales by approximately $15 million in the first half of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes increased net sales by $4 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

Europe: Net sales in Europe in the first six months of 2022 were $1,474 million compared to $1,384 million for the first six months of 2021, an increase of $90 million, or approximately 7%. Glass container shipments in the first half of 2022 were up nearly 5%, increasing net sales by approximately $48 million, compared to the same period in 2021, driven by stronger shipments to wine, spirits and non-alcoholic beverage customers. Higher selling prices in Europe increased net sales by $176 million in the first half of 2022, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates decreased the region’s net sales by approximately $134 million in the first six months of 2022 as the Euro weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Earnings before Income Taxes and Segment Operating Profit

Earnings before income taxes were $498 million in the first half of 2022 compared to $133 million in the first half of 2021, an increase of $365 million. This increase was due to higher segment operating profit, the gains on the sale of land and building of the Company’s plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada and the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia in the first six months of 2022 and the non-recurrence of the Paddock-related charge in the first six months of 2021, partially offset by the non-recurrence of the gain recorded on a Brazilian indirect tax credit, higher retained corporate and other costs and higher net interest expense in the first six months of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Segment operating profit of reportable segments in the first half of 2022 was $488 million, compared to $407 million for the first half of 2021, an increase of $81 million, or approximately 20%. This increase was primarily due to higher sales and production levels, strong operating performance, benefits from the Company’s margin expansion

initiatives, higher net prices and the non-recurrence of severe weather that impacted the Americas in the first quarter of 2021, slightly offset by higher logistics costs and elevated engineering project activity.

The change in segment operating profit of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions):


Reportable segment operating profit - 2021			$	407
Net price (net of cost inflation)	$	57
Sales volume and mix		23
Operating costs		25
Effects of changing foreign currency rates		(16)
Divestitures		(8)
Total net effect on reportable segment operating profit				81
Reportable segment operating profit - 2022			$	488

Americas: Segment operating profit in the Americas in the first six months of 2022 was $258 million compared to $224 million in the first six months of 2021, an increase of $34 million, or 15%. The impact of higher shipments discussed above increased segment operating profit by $10 million. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation resulting in a net $7 million increase to segment operating profit in the first half of 2022. Operating costs in the first six months of 2022 were $23 million lower than in the same period of the prior year and included benefits from the region’s margin expansion initiatives, partially offset by furnace events in North America that resulted in higher repair costs and unplanned production downtime. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates decreased segment operating profit by $1 million in the current year period.

Included in the above discussion of the factors impacting results, the region’s results for the first six months of 2022 benefited from the non-recurrence of severe weather that occurred in February of 2021, which negatively impacted first quarter 2021 results by approximately $40 million, primarily due to surcharges for usage or excess usage of electricity and natural gas, lost production downtime, lost sales and the cost of incremental repairs.

In March 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Cristar glass tableware business in Colombia, and in May 2022, the Company completed the sale of the land and building of the Company’s plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada in conjunction with a leaseback of this property. The divestiture and sale leaseback are part of the Company’s portfolio optimization program to divest non-core assets and decapitalize the business through sale-leaseback transactions and redeploy the proceeds to help fund attractive growth opportunities, which primarily include capital expenditures related to expansion projects and investments in the Company’s MAGMA innovation, as well as to reduce debt. The divestiture of the Cristar glass tableware business and nearly two months of additional lease expense associated with the Brampton, Ontario sale leaseback transaction reduced segment operating profit by approximately $5 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Europe: Segment operating profit in Europe in the first six months of 2022 was $230 million compared to $183 million in the same period of 2021, an increase of $47 million, or 26%. The impact of higher shipments discussed above increased segment operating profit by $13 million. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation and increased segment operating profit by $50 million in the first six months of 2022 compared to the first six months of 2021. Operating costs in the first six months of 2022 were $2 million lower than in the same period of the prior year and included benefits from the region’s margin expansion initiatives. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates decreased segment operating profit by $15 million in the current year period. The divestiture of the Le Parfait brand in December 2021 reduced segment operating profit by approximately $3 million in the first half of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

unable or unwilling to deliver natural gas at agreed prices and quantities. If this occurs, it will be necessary for the Company to procure natural gas at then-current market prices and subject to market availability and could cause the Company to experience a significant increase in operating costs or result in the temporary or permanent cessation of delivery of natural gas to several of the Company’s manufacturing plants in Europe. In addition, depending on the duration and ultimate outcome of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, future long-term supply arrangements for natural gas may not be available at reasonable prices or at all.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the first six months of 2022 was $112 million compared to $103 million for the same period of 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher note repurchase premiums and refinancing fees and charges and higher interest rates, partially offset by lower debt levels. Net interest expense for the first six months of 2022 included $18 million for note repurchase premiums, third-party fees and the write-off of deferred finance fees that related to debt that was repaid prior to its maturity and the Company’s new bank credit agreement.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 24.1% compared to 75.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2022 differed from the first six months of 2021 due to the favorable capital gains tax rate on the sales of the tableware business and the land and building of its Brampton, Canada plant in the first six months of 2022 and the charge related to the Paddock support agreement liability recorded without a tax benefit in the first six months of 2021, as well as a change in the mix of geographic earnings.

Net Earnings Attributable to Non-Controlling Interests

Net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests for the first six months of 2022 was $38 million compared to $12 million for the first six months of 2021. This increase was primarily due to approximately $29 million of non-controlling interest recorded in the first quarter of 2022 associated with the gain on the sale of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia.

Net Earnings Attributable to the Company

For the first six months of 2022, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $340 million, or $2.14 per share (diluted), compared to net earnings attributable to the Company of $21 million, or $0.13 per share (diluted), in the first half of 2021. Earnings in the first six months of 2022 and 2021 included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments as set forth in the following table (dollars in millions):

Forward Looking Operational and Financial Impacts

●

The Company expects full year 2022 sales shipment growth (in tons) to increase around 1% compared to 2021. Likewise, the Company expects continued benefits from its initiatives to expand margins and higher selling prices that are expected to more than offset cost inflation. Operating costs will also reflect incremental cost for expansion project activity.

●

The Company will continue to focus on long-term value creation, including advancing the MAGMA deployment.

●

Including the $620 million funding of the Paddock trust and related expenses, cash provided by operating activities is expected to be approximately $155 million for 2022. Excluding the one-time funding of the Paddock trust and related expenses, cash provided by operating activities is expected to be approximately $775 million for 2022. Capital expenditures in 2022 are expected to be approximately $600 million.

●

The European Union is preparing for potential Russian natural gas curtailments through this next winter and has established a plan to reduce natural gas usage by 15 percent to mitigate the brunt of these potential curtailments. Early in 2022, the Company started to install energy switching capabilities and establish agile network optimization plans. Today, approximately 20% of the Company’s production capacity in Europe is capable of running with oil and the Company expects to have approximately 50% covered by year-end 2022. At this time, it is unclear if meaningful issues will emerge. If natural gas curtailments impact its operations, the Company believes it is well positioned to manage the situation and believes it would represent only a slight potential risk to its 2022 business outlook.

●

The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the Company’s operations will be impacted by the pandemic will depend largely on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the outbreak and actions by government authorities to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among other things.

●

The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The extent to which the Company’s operations will be impacted by this conflict will depend largely on future developments, including potential sanctions or other adverse repercussions on Russian-sourced energy supplies, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted.

Items Excluded from Reportable Segment Totals

Retained Corporate Costs and Other

Retained corporate costs and other for the second quarter of 2022 were $53 million compared to $42 million in the second quarter of 2021 and were $103 million for the first six months of 2022 compared to $77 million for the first six months of 2021. These costs were higher in the 2022 periods primarily due to inflation, additional research and development expenses related to MAGMA and higher management incentive expense.

Gain on Sale of Divested Business and Sale Leaseback of Land and Building

In May 2022, the Company completed the sale of the land and building of the Company’s Brampton, Ontario, Canada plant to an affiliate of Crestpoint Real Estate Investments Ltd. The Company recorded a pretax gain of approximately $182 million (approximately $158 million after tax) on the sale, which is reflected to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations in the second quarter of 2022.

In March 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Cristar glass tableware business in Colombia to Vidros Colombia S.A.S, an affiliate of Nadir Figueiredo S.A., a glass tableware producer based in Brazil. The related pretax gain was approximately $55 million (approximately $16 million after tax and non-controlling interest). The pretax gain was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations in the first quarter of 2022.

See Note 17 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Charges

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded charges totaling $12 million for restructuring, asset impairment and other charges consisting of employee costs, such as severance, benefit-related costs and other exit costs (including related consulting costs attributed to restructuring of managed services activities) at a number of the Company’s locations in the Americas and Europe. The Company expects that the majority of the remaining cash expenditures related to the accrued employee and other exit costs will be paid out over the next several years.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded charges totaling $9 million for restructuring, asset impairment and other charges (including related consulting costs attributed to restructuring of managed services activities) consisting of employee costs, such as severance, benefit-related costs and other exit costs at a number of the Company’s locations in the Americas and Europe. The Company expects that the majority of the remaining cash expenditures related to the accrued employee and other exit costs will be paid out over the next several years.

Gain on Brazil Indirect Tax Credit

In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a $69 million gain based on a favorable court ruling in Brazil that will allow the Company to recover indirect taxes paid in previous years. This gain was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations.

Charge for Paddock Support Agreement Liability

On April 26, 2021, the Company announced that its subsidiary, Paddock, had reached an agreement in principle to accept the terms of a mediator’s proposal regarding a consensual plan of reorganization in Paddock’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy case. The agreement in principle provided for total consideration of $610 million to fund the Paddock Trust (as defined in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company recorded a charge of $154 million related to its potential liability under the Paddock support agreement during the first fiscal quarter of 2021, primarily related to an increase to Paddock’s asbestos reserve estimate in consideration for the channeling injunction to be included in the Plan (as defined in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) protecting the Company and its affiliates from Asbestos Claims (as defined in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). This charge was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations in the first quarter of 2021. Subsequent to quarter end, in July 2022, the Plan became effective, and the Paddock Trust was funded by the Company and Paddock with consideration totaling $610 million.

See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

consideration, the Paddock Trust. The term loans mature, and the revolving credit facilities terminate, in March 2027. The delayed draw term loan matures in December 2023. The Company recorded approximately $2 million of additional interest charges for third-party fees and the write-off of unamortized fees related to the Agreement in the first quarter of 2022.

At June 30, 2022, the Agreement includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $950 million multicurrency revolving credit facility and $950 million in term loan A facilities ($946 million outstanding balance at June 30, 2022, net of debt issuance costs). At June 30, 2022, the Company had unused credit of $1.240 billion available under the Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Agreement at June 30, 2022 was 3.13%.

On February 28, 2022, the Company repurchased $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 and $88.2 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027. Following the repurchase, $550.0 million and $611.8 million aggregate principal amounts of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 and 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027, respectively, remained outstanding. The repurchases were funded with cash on hand. The Company recorded approximately $16 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the write-off of unamortized finance fees related to the senior note repurchases conducted in the first quarter of 2022.

In November 2021, the Company issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes. The senior notes bear interest at a rate of 4.75% per annum and mature on February 15, 2030. The senior notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $395 million and, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem the $310 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 4.00% Senior Notes due 2023 and approximately $128 million of term loan A borrowings under the Previous Agreement. The Company recorded approximately $13 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and write-off of unamortized finance fees related to these redemptions.

Material Cash Requirements

There have been no material changes to the Company’s material cash requirements at June 30, 2022 from those described in Part II, Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Capital Resources and Liquidity - Material Cash Requirements” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Cash Flows

Operating activities: Cash provided by operating activities was $120 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $143 million cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2022 was primarily due to a higher use of cash from working capital, lower non-cash charges and a higher use of cash from other operating items, partially offset by higher net earnings than in the same period in 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company has contributed approximately $12 million toward its defined benefit pension plans compared to $24 million in the same period in the prior year. In the first six months of both 2022 and 2021, all asbestos-related payments were stayed as a result of Paddock’s Chapter 11 filing in early January 2020. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on Paddock.

Working capital was a use of cash of $250 million in the first six months of 2022, compared to a use of cash of $229 million in the same period in 2021. The use of cash from working capital was higher in the first six months of 2022 primarily due to higher accounts receivable resulting from higher sales and less factoring. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s use of its accounts receivable factoring programs resulted in a decrease of $28 million and an increase of $4 million, respectively, to cash provided by operating activities. Excluding the impact of accounts receivable factoring, the Company’s days sales outstanding as of June 30, 2022 were comparable to June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, other cash flows from operating activities were a higher use of cash of approximately $42 million compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the Company paying a $38 million tax audit settlement in Mexico.

Investing activities: Cash provided by investing activities was $66 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $109 million of cash utilized in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Capital spending for property, plant and equipment was $199 million during the first six months of 2022, compared to $175 million in the same period in 2021. The Company’s 2022-2024 capital expenditure plan to enable profitable growth has evolved amid ongoing supply chain challenges. The Company now anticipates that it will undertake a broader range of smaller scope capital projects to de-risk project execution. The Company also plans to accelerate the development of its Generation 3 MAGMA solution. Additionally, the company recently announced the first U.S. MAGMA greenfield facility to be constructed at Bowling Green, KY, which is expected to commence production in mid-2024. The Company estimates that its full year 2022 capital expenditures should be approximately $600 million.

In addition, as previously disclosed, the Company entered into an Order with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality to submit a permit application to install pollution control equipment at its Portland, Oregon manufacturing facility or to cease its operations at that facility by June 30, 2022. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company submitted the permit application to install pollution control equipment, allowing it to continue operations at the Portland facility. The current plan for this pollution control equipment is included in the Company’s estimated full year 2022 capital expenditure noted above.

Cash proceeds of approximately $286 million were received in the first six months of 2022, primarily related to the sale of the land and building of the Company’s plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada and its Cristar glass tableware business in Colombia. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company received approximately $58 million related to the sale of its ANZ businesses. Contributions to joint ventures were $11 million and $0 in the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Financing activities: Cash utilized in financing activities was $243 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to cash utilized in financing activities of $68 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash utilized in financing activities was primarily due to a $187 million increase in net repayments of debt in the first six months of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company paid $20 million for finance fees and premiums related to financing activities in the first six months of 2022, whereas no fees or premiums were paid in the same period in 2021.

During each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased $20 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company received approximately $38 million and paid approximately $10 million related to hedge activity for the first six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Distributions to non-controlling interests increased from $10 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $26 million for the same period in 2022 due to the gain on the sale of the Cristar glass tableware business in Colombia.

The Company anticipates that cash flows from its operations and from utilization of credit available under the Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operating and seasonal working capital needs, debt service and other obligations on a short-term (12 months) and long-term basis. However, as the Company cannot predict the duration or scope of the COVID-19 pandemic or the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and their impact on the Company’s customers and suppliers, the negative financial impact to the Company’s results cannot be reasonably estimated, but could be material. The Company is actively managing its business to maintain cash flow, and it has significant liquidity. The Company believes that these factors will allow it to meet its anticipated funding requirements. On April 26, 2021, O-I announced that its subsidiary Paddock had reached an agreement in principle to accept the terms of a mediator’s proposal regarding a consensual plan of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code. The agreement provided for total consideration of $610 million to fund the Paddock Trust (as defined in Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Subsequent to quarter end, in July 2022, the Plan became effective, and the Paddock Trust was funded by the Company and Paddock with consideration totaling $610 million. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Company’s analysis and discussion of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates these estimates and

assumptions on an ongoing basis. Estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time the financial statements are issued. The results of these estimates may form the basis of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities and may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual results, under conditions and circumstances different from those assumed, may differ from estimates.

The impact of, and any associated risks related to, estimates and assumptions are discussed within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, if applicable, where estimates and assumptions affect the Company’s reported and expected financial results.

There have been no other material changes in critical accounting estimates at June 30, 2022 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current expectations and projections about future events at the time, and thus involve uncertainty and risk. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements.

It is possible that the Company’s future financial performance may differ from expectations due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to the following: (1) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the various governmental, industry and consumer actions related thereto, (2) the Company’s ability to obtain the benefits it anticipates from the Corporate Modernization, (3) the Company’s ability to manage its cost structure, including its success in implementing restructuring or other plans aimed at improving the Company’s operating efficiency and working capital management, and achieving cost savings, (4) the Company’s ability to acquire or divest businesses, acquire and expand plants, integrate operations of acquired businesses and achieve expected benefits from acquisitions, divestitures or expansions, (5) the Company’s ability to achieve its strategic plan, (6) the Company’s ability to improve its glass melting technology, known as the MAGMA program, and implement it within the timeframe expected, (7) foreign currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, (8) changes in capital availability or cost, including interest rate fluctuations and the ability of the Company to refinance debt on favorable terms, (9) the general political, economic and competitive conditions in markets and countries where the Company has operations, including uncertainties related to economic and social conditions, disruptions in the supply chain, competitive pricing pressures, inflation or deflation, changes in tax rates and laws, war, civil disturbance or acts of terrorism, natural disasters, and weather, (10) the Company’s ability to generate sufficient future cash flows to ensure the Company’s goodwill is not impaired, (11) consumer preferences for alternative forms of packaging, (12) cost and availability of raw materials, labor, energy and transportation (including impacts related to the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine), (13) consolidation among competitors and customers, (14) unanticipated expenditures with respect to data privacy, environmental, safety and health laws, (15) unanticipated operational disruptions, including higher capital spending, (16) the Company’s ability to further develop its sales, marketing and product development capabilities, (17) the failure of the Company’s joint venture partners to meet their obligations or commit additional capital to the joint venture, (18) the ability of the Company and the third parties on which it relies for information technology system support to prevent and detect security breaches related to cybersecurity and data privacy, (19) changes in U.S. trade policies, (20) risks related to recycling and recycled content laws and regulations, (21) risks related to climate-change and air emissions, including related laws or regulations and the other risk factors discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and any subsequently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. Any forward-looking statements in this document are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ

materially from expectations. While the Company continually reviews trends and uncertainties affecting the Company's results of operations and financial condition, the Company does not assume any obligation to update or supplement any particular forward-looking statements contained in this document.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in market risk at June 30, 2022 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Also, the Company has investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As the Company does not control or manage these entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those maintained with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2022.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Although the Company has modified its workplace practices globally due to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in most of its administrative employees working remotely, this has not materially affected its internal control over financial reporting. The Company is continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on its internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

SEC regulations require the Company to disclose certain information about environmental proceedings if the Company reasonably believes that such proceedings may result in monetary sanctions above a stated threshold. The Company uses a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required. No such environmental proceedings were pending or contemplated as of June 30, 2022.

For further information on legal proceedings, see Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, “Contingencies,” that is included in Part I of this Quarterly Report and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As discussed in Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, “Contingencies,” that is included in Part I of this Quarterly Report, in July 2022, Paddock emerged from Chapter 11 protection and the Paddock Trust (as defined in Note 9) was funded, the occurrence of which modifies the risks factors on this topic included in “Risks Related to the Corporate Modernization” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Otherwise, except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in risk factors at June 30, 2022 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Energy Costs or Availability—Higher energy costs worldwide and interrupted power supplies, including as a result of the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated assets or operations.

Electrical power, natural gas, and fuel oil are vital to the Company’s operations as it relies on a continuous energy supply to conduct its business. Depending on the location and mix of energy sources, energy accounts for 10% to 20% of total manufacturing costs. Substantial increases and volatility in energy costs, including those resulting from extreme weather events that affect the Company’s facilities directly or its energy suppliers or the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, could cause the Company to experience a significant increase in operating costs, which may have a material adverse effect on its assets or results of operations.

For example, the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine has caused a significant increase in the price of natural gas and increased price volatility. Natural gas forms the primary energy source for the Company’s European operations, and a significant amount of natural gas in Europe is ultimately sourced from Russia. The Company’s European operations typically purchase natural gas under long-term supply arrangements and frequently agree on price with the relevant supplier in advance of the period in which the natural gas will be delivered, which is shielding the Company from the full impact of increased natural gas prices.

However, the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the resulting sanctions, potential sanctions, government-mandated curtailments or government-imposed allocations, or other adverse repercussions on Russian-sourced energy supplies could cause the Company’s energy suppliers to be unable or unwilling to deliver natural gas at agreed prices and quantities. If this occurs, the Company may need to procure natural gas at then-current market prices, subject to market availability, which could cause the Company to experience a significant increase in operating costs or result in the temporary or permanent cessation of delivery of natural gas to several of the Company’s manufacturing plants in Europe. Alternatively, for certain plants that have energy switching capabilities, the Company may decide to switch to a different energy source, which could also result in a significant increase in operating costs. In addition, depending on the duration and ultimate outcome of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, future long-term supply arrangements for natural gas may not be available at reasonable prices or at all. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated assets or results of operations.

Labor—Some of the Company’s employees are unionized or represented by workers’ councils, and its business could be affected by labor shortages and labor cost increases.

The Company is party to a number of collective bargaining agreements with labor unions, which at June 30, 2022, covered approximately 74% of the Company’s employees directly associated with its operations in the U.S. and Canada. In June 2022, the Company entered into a new collective bargaining agreement for its principal collective bargaining agreement for the U.S., which approximates 73% of all union-affiliated employees in U.S. and Canada. This new collective bargaining agreement will expire in March 2025.

In addition, approximately 81% of employees in South America and Mexico are covered by other collective bargaining agreements. The collective bargaining agreements in South America and Mexico have varying terms and expiration dates. Upon the expiration of any collective bargaining agreement, if the Company is unable to negotiate acceptable contracts with labor unions, it could result in strikes by the affected workers and increased operating costs as a result of higher wages or benefits paid to union members. In Europe, a large number of the Company’s employees are employed in countries in which employment laws provide greater bargaining or other rights to employees than the laws of the U.S. Such employment rights require the Company to work collaboratively with the legal representatives of the employees to effect any changes to labor arrangements. For example, most of the Company’s employees in Europe are represented by workers’ councils that must approve any changes in conditions of employment, including salaries and benefits and staff changes, and may impede efforts to restructure the Company’s workforce.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also caused an overall tightened and increasingly competitive labor market. A number of factors may adversely affect the labor force available to the Company, including unemployment subsidies, the need for enhanced health and safety protocols and government regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Increased competition for qualified labor could result in higher compensation costs for the Company, and a continuation of labor shortages, a lack of qualified labor or increased turnover could result in a significant disruption of its operations and/or higher ongoing labor costs. Any of these occurrences could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated operations.

New Glass Melting Technologies—The Company’s inability to develop or apply new glass melting technology may affect its ability to transition to lower-carbon processes and competitiveness. Supply chain challenges have delayed the development of new melting technologies, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated operations.

The Company’s success depends partially on its ability to improve its glass melting technology and introduce processes that emit less carbon. One of these new technologies, known as the MAGMA program, seeks to reduce the amount of capital required to install, rebuild and operate the Company’s furnaces. It also is focused on the ability of these assets to be more easily turned on and off or adjusted based on seasonality and customer demand, utilize more recycled glass, produce lighter containers and use lower-carbon fuels. The Company is implementing its MAGMA program using a multi-generation development roadmap, which will include various deployment risks and will require the discovery of additional inventions through 2025. Current supply chain challenges have resulted in a delay in development of the Company’s MAGMA program. If the Company is unable to continue to improve this glass melting technology through research and development or licensing of new technology, the Company may not be able to remain competitive with other packaging manufacturers. As a result, its business, financial condition, results of operations or ability to transition to lower carbon operations could be adversely affected.

Global Economic Environment—The global credit, financial and economic environment could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and financial condition.

The global credit, financial and economic environment, and changes in economic conditions or financial markets, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, including the following:

●

Downturns in the business or financial condition of any of the Company’s customers or suppliers could result in a loss of revenues or a disruption in the supply of raw materials;

●

Unfavorable macroeconomic conditions, such as a recession or continued slowed economic growth, could negatively affect consumer demand for the Company’s products;

●

Cost inflation could negatively impact the Company’s costs for energy, labor, materials and services, and impact the Company’s profitability if increased costs are not fully passed on to customers through increased prices of the Company’s products;

●

Tightening of credit in financial markets or increasing interest rates could reduce the Company’s ability, as well as the ability of the Company’s customers and suppliers, to obtain future financing;

●

Volatile market performance could affect the fair value of the Company’s pension assets and liabilities, potentially requiring the Company to make significant additional contributions to its pension plans to maintain prescribed funding levels;

●

The deterioration of any of the lending parties under the Company’s revolving credit facility or the creditworthiness of the counterparties to the Company’s derivative transactions could result in such parties’ failure to satisfy their obligations under their arrangements with the Company;

●

A significant weakening of the Company’s financial position or results of operations could result in noncompliance with the covenants under the Company’s indebtedness; and

●

The current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as well as any further actions by Russia or other countries relating to this conflict, and related economic sanctions imposed on Russia by other countries may further impact the global credit, financial and economic environment.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company purchased 770,710 shares of its common stock for approximately $10 million pursuant to a $150 million anti-dilutive share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors that is intended to offset stock-based compensation provided to the Company’s directors, officers, and employees. Approximately $90 million remained available for purchases under this program as of June 30, 2022.
