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 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 Company’s management, including the chief operating decision maker (defined as the 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, 2023 and 2022 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows:

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. Amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling or other pass-through items are included in net sales in the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations. 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, 2023 and June 30, 2022, 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 Sheets.

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 before it sells glass containers 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, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the Company reported $984 million and $957 million of accounts receivable, respectively, net of allowances of $34 million and $29 million, respectively. Changes in the allowance were not material for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.

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.

9

An unrecognized loss of $11 million, $1 million and $1 million at June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively, related to the commodity forward contracts and collars was included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“Accumulated OCI”), and will be reclassified into earnings over the next 12 months.

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 raw materials 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 currency exchange risk.

An unrecognized gain of $0 million, $1 million and $1 million at June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively, 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 and 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.  The Company uses derivatives to manage these exposures and designates these derivatives as fair value hedges of foreign currency exchange risk. Approximately $10 million, $16 million and $6 million of the components were excluded from the assessment of effectiveness and are included in Accumulated OCI at June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

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.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company terminated interest rate swaps with a notional amount of €725 million as a result of debt refinancing activity. This resulted in cash outflows of approximately $40 million in cash flows from financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Cash Flows.

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, 2023 and 2022, 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

13

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.

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, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico and Peru. The years under examination range from 2004

14

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.

The Company presents debt issuance costs in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets 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 “Original Agreement”), which refinanced in full the previous credit agreement. The Original Agreement provided 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 allowed for a one-time borrowing of up to $600 million, the proceeds of which were used, in addition to other consideration paid by the Company and/or its subsidiaries, to fund an asbestos settlement trust (the “Paddock Trust”) 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). On July 18, 2022, the Company drew down the $600 million delayed draw term loan to fund, together with other consideration, the Paddock Trust.

On August 30, 2022, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries entered into an Amendment No. 1 to its Credit Agreement and Syndicated Facility Agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”), which amends the Original Agreement (as amended by the Credit Agreement Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement Amendment provides for up to $500 million of additional borrowings in the form of term loans. The proceeds of such term loans were used, together with cash, to retire the $600 million delayed draw term loan. The term loans mature, and the revolving credit facilities terminate, in March 2027. The term loans borrowed under the Credit Agreement Amendment are secured by certain collateral of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, the Credit

15

Agreement Amendment makes modifications to certain loan documents, in order to give the Company increased flexibility to incur secured debt in the future.

The Company recorded approximately $1 million of additional interest charges for third-party fees and the write-off of unamortized fees related to the Credit Agreement Amendment in the third quarter of 2022. The Company recorded approximately $2 million of additional interest charges for third-party fees incurred in connection with the execution of the Original Agreement and the write-off of unamortized fees related to the previous credit agreement in the first quarter of 2022.

At June 30, 2023, the Credit Agreement includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $950 million multicurrency revolving credit facility and $1.45 billion in term loan A facilities ($1.43 billion outstanding balance at June 30, 2023, net of debt issuance costs). At June 30, 2023, the Company had unused credit of $1.24 billion available under the Credit Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023 was 6.62%.

The Credit 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 Credit Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit 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 Credit Agreement. In such an event, the Company could not request additional borrowings under the revolving facilities, and all amounts outstanding under the Credit 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 Credit Agreement. If an event of default occurs under the Credit Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Credit 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, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Credit Agreement.  In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow additional funds under the Credit Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

The Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) determines pricing under the Credit Agreement. The interest rate on borrowings under the Credit 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 Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The margins range from 1.00% to 2.25% for Term SOFR loans and Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.00% to 1.25% 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 Credit 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 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, and certain foreign obligations under the Credit 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.

In August 2022, the Company redeemed $300 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023. Following the redemption, $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 remained outstanding. The redemption was funded with cash on hand. The Company recorded approximately $7 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the write-off of unamortized finance fees related to this redemption.

On May 11, 2023, the Company announced the commencement, by two indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, of tender offers to purchase any and all of its outstanding (i) 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, of which $250 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding, and (ii) 3.125% Senior Notes due 2024, of which €725 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding. On May 15, 2023, the Company announced the commencement, by an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of a tender offer to purchase any and all of its outstanding 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025, of which $300 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding.

On May 26, 2023, the Company repurchased $142 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, €666.7 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 3.125% Senior Notes due 2024, and $282.8 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025. Following the repurchase, approximately $108 million, €58 million, and $17 million aggregate principal amounts of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, 3.125% Senior Notes due 2024, and 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025, respectively, remained outstanding. The repurchases were funded with the proceeds from the May 2023 senior notes issuances described below. The Company recorded approximately $39 million of additional interest charges related to the senior note repurchases conducted in the second quarter of 2023 for note repurchase premiums, the write-off of unamortized finance fees and the settlement of a related interest rate swap.

In May 2023, the Company issued €600 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that bear interest at a rate of 6.250% per annum and mature on May 15, 2028. Also, in May 2023, the Company issued $690 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that bear interest at a rate of 7.250% per annum and mature on May 15, 2031.  The senior notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The net proceeds, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately €593 million and $682 million, respectively, were used to redeem the aggregate principal amounts described in the May 2023 tender offers above.

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

17

published market quotations, and are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Fair values at June 30, 2023 of the Company’s significant fixed rate debt obligations are as follows:

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.

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 current and future asbestos-related liabilities 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-related liabilities. O-I Glass and O-I Group were not included in the Chapter 11 filing. During the pendency of the Chapter 11 proceeding, the activities of Paddock became subject to review and oversight by the Bankruptcy Court. As a result, 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 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 required under applicable accounting standards.

On April 26, 2021, the Company announced that (i) Paddock, (ii) the Official Committee of Asbestos Personal Injury Claimants (the “ACC”), appointed in the Paddock Chapter 11 case as the representative of current Paddock asbestos claimants, and (iii) the Legal Representative of Future Asbestos Claimants (the “FCR”), appointed in the Paddock Chapter 11 case as the representative of future Paddock asbestos claimants, had reached an agreement in principle, supported by O-I Glass, by accepting a proposal from Paddock’s court-appointed mediators setting forth total consideration to fund a trust created under section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code upon the effective date of a plan of reorganization for Paddock (the “Effective Date”).

18

On January 12, 2022, Paddock, O-I Glass, the FCR and the ACC 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, as 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 and implements the agreement in principle described herein. 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.

Under the confirmed and effective Plan, 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, the Company, each of its current and former affiliates and certain other related parties (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 current and future asbestos-related personal injury claims to the Paddock Trust and permanently enjoining the assertion of asbestos-related personal injury 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-related personal injury claims against any Company Protected Party after the Effective Date. As a result, the Plan provides for a full and final resolution of current and future asbestos-related personal injury claims, a full and final 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 (which occurred on July 8, 2022), 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.

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, and the Company issued a pledge of the equity interests in reorganized Paddock to the Paddock Trust to secure the Trust Note. On July 18, 2022, the Company funded the Paddock Trust with $601.5 million, comprising $600 million borrowed under the Credit 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, and the pledge of equity interests in reorganized Paddock was cancelled.

As a result of the funding of the Paddock Trust and the cancellation of the pledge of equity interests in reorganized Paddock, on July 20, 2022, 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 totaling $18 million (including $12 million of cash and cash equivalents) and liabilities totaling $30 million were recognized in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.  The funding of the Paddock Trust and certain related expenses resulted in an operating cash outflow of $621 million in the Company’s Consolidated Cash Flows during 2022.

Other Matters

The Company has been identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) or a comparable state or federal agency as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) at a number of sites in the U.S., including certain Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”) (Superfund) sites, as well as sites previously owned or operated by the Company.  As an identified PRP, the Company may have liability for investigation, remediation and monitoring of contamination, as well as associated penalties and natural resource damages, if any.  The Company has not had monetary sanctions imposed nor has the Company been notified of any potential monetary sanctions at any of the sites.

The Company has recorded aggregate accruals of approximately $24 million (undiscounted) as of June 30, 2023 for estimated future remediation costs and associated penalties at these sites. The majority of these accruals arose from the reconsolidation of Paddock in 2022. Although the Company believes its accruals are adequate to cover its portion of future remediation costs, there can be no assurance that the ultimate payments will not exceed the amount of the

19

Company’s accruals and will not have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Any possible loss or range of potential loss that may be incurred in excess of the recorded accruals cannot be estimated.

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.

Interest paid, including note repurchase premiums, in cash for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $160 million and $112 million, respectively. Cash interest for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 included $3 million and $12 million, respectively, of note repurchase premiums.

The Company uses various factoring programs to sell certain trade receivables to financial institutions as part of managing its cash flows. At June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, the total amount of trade receivables sold by the Company was $556 million, $535 million, and $453 million, respectively. These amounts included $271 million, $158 million and $158 million at June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022, respectively, for trade receivable amounts factored under supply chain financing programs linked to commercial arrangements with key customers. The Company’s use of its factoring programs resulted in an increase in cash provided by operating activities of approximately $21 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and a decrease in cash provided by operating activities of approximately $28 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded expenses related to these factoring programs of approximately $11 million and $3 million, respectively.

In accordance with ASU 2022-04, “Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” the Company has agreements with third-party administrators that allow participating vendors to track the Company’s payments, and if voluntarily elected by the vendor, to sell payment obligations from the Company to financial institutions as part of a Supply Chain Financing (“SCF”) Program.  The Company's payment terms to the financial institutions, including the timing and amount of payments, are based on the original supplier invoices. When participating vendors elect to sell one or more of the Company’s payment obligations, the Company’s rights and obligations to settle the payables on their contractual due date are not impacted. The Company has no economic or commercial interest in a vendor’s decision to enter into these agreements, and the financial institutions do not provide the Company with incentives, such as rebates or profit sharing under the SCF Program. The Company agrees on commercial terms with vendors for the goods and services procured, which are consistent with payment terms observed at other peer companies in the industry, and the terms are not impacted by the SCF Program. Such obligations are classified as accounts payable in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company does not provide asset pledges, or other forms of guarantees, as security for the committed payment to the financial institutions. As of June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $123 million, $110 million, and $95 million, respectively, of outstanding payment obligations to the financial institutions as part of the SCF Program.

16. 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.

25

In March 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Cristar TableTop S.A.S. 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.

26

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.

Financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows (dollars in millions):

Executive Overview — Quarters ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Net sales in the second quarter of 2023 increased $112 million, or 6%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year, due to higher prices and the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower shipments.

Earnings before income taxes were $174 million lower in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. This decrease was due to higher interest expense and the non-recurrence of 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 in the second quarter of 2022, partially offset by higher segment operating profit compared to the same period in the prior year.

Segment operating profit for reportable segments in the second quarter of 2023 was $69 million higher compared to the same period of 2022, primarily due to higher net prices, the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, strong operating performance and benefits from margin expansion initiatives. These favorable effects were partially offset by lower shipments, higher costs due to temporary curtailments of production to balance with lower demand, elevated planned asset project activity and the unfavorable impacts from divestitures in 2022.

Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2023 increased $72 million compared to the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to higher interest rates, higher note repurchase premiums, the write-off of deferred finance fees and related charges.

For the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $110 million, or $0.69 per share (diluted), compared to $252 million, or $1.59 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2022. 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 decreased net earnings attributable to the Company by $30 million, or $0.19 per share, in the second quarter of 2023 and increased net earnings attributable to the Company by $137 million, or $0.86 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.

Results of Operations — Second Quarter of 2023 Compared with Second Quarter of 2022

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales in the second quarter of 2023 were $1,890 million compared with $1,778 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $112 million, or 6%. Higher selling prices increased net sales by $241 million in the second quarter of 2023, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments, in tons, declined approximately 9% in the second quarter of 2023, which decreased net sales by approximately $165 million compared to the same period in 2022. This decline was mostly attributed to softer consumer consumption activity, inventory destocking across the value chain and internal capacity and inventory constraints. Favorable foreign currency exchange rates increased net sales by $47 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by the strengthening of the Euro and the Mexican Peso compared to the U.S. dollar. Other sales were approximately $11 million lower in the second quarter of 2023 than the same period in the prior year driven by lower 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 2023 were $996 million compared to $971 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $25 million, or 3%. Higher selling prices in the region increased net sales by $75 million in the second quarter of 2023, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments

28

in the region were down approximately 9% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, which decreased net sales by approximately $75 million. This decline was mostly attributed to softer consumer consumption activity, especially related to wine and beer retail sales in the United States and beer and spirits demand in Mexico, and inventory destocking across the value chain. The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes increased net sales by $25 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, primarily driven by the strengthening of the Mexican Peso compared to the U.S. dollar.

Europe: Net sales in Europe in the second quarter of 2023 were $863 million compared to $765 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $98 million, or 13%. Higher selling prices in Europe increased net sales by $166 million in the second quarter of 2023, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments declined by approximately 11% in the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to softer consumer consumption activity, especially in beer in Northern Europe, inventory destocking across the value chain and internal capacity and inventory constraints, which resulted in lower wine shipments in southern Europe. Lower shipments in the second quarter of 2023 decreased net sales by approximately $90 million compared to the second quarter of 2022. Favorable foreign currency exchange rates increased the region’s net sales by approximately $22 million in the second quarter of 2023 as the Euro strengthened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Earnings before Income Taxes and Segment Operating Profit

Earnings before income taxes were $154 million in second quarter of 2023 compared to $328 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $174 million. This decrease was due to higher interest expense and the non-recurrence of 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 in the second quarter of 2022, partially offset by higher segment operating profit 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 2023 was $326 million, compared to $257 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $69 million, or approximately 27%. This increase was primarily due to higher net prices, the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, strong operating performance and benefits from margin expansion initiatives, partially offset by lower shipments, higher costs due to temporary curtailments of production to balance with lower demand, elevated planned project activity and the unfavorable impacts from divestitures in 2022.

Americas: Segment operating profit in the Americas in the second quarter of 2023 was $126 million, compared to $130 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $4 million, or 3%. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation resulting in a net $75 million increase to segment operating profit in the second quarter of 2023. The impact of lower shipments discussed above resulted in a $22 million decrease to segment operating profit in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Operating costs in the second quarter of 2023 were $56

29

million higher than in the prior year quarter and were impacted by lower production volumes due to temporary curtailments of production to balance with lower demand and elevated planned asset project activity, partially offset by approximately $13 million of lower operating costs as a result of the region’s restructuring actions in 2022 (in line with management’s expectations) and margin expansion initiatives. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates increased segment operating profit by $3 million in the current year period.

In order to better match production to customer demand, the region has implemented temporary production curtailments. This initiative will result in higher operating costs for the remainder of 2023 due to unabsorbed fixed costs.  The Company will continue to monitor business trends and will consider whether any permanent capacity closures will be necessary in the future to align its business with demand trends.  Any permanent capacity closures could result in material restructuring and impairment charges, as well as cash expenditures, in future periods.

In 2022, the Company completed the sale of its land and buildings for two plants in the Americas and simultaneously entered into leaseback transactions for these properties. These transactions were part of the Company’s portfolio optimization program to redeploy proceeds from asset sales 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 additional lease expense associated with the sale leaseback transactions reduced segment operating profit by approximately $4 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Europe: Segment operating profit in Europe in the second quarter of 2023 was $200 million compared to $127 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $73 million, or 57%. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation and increased segment operating profit by $95 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of the prior year. The impact of lower shipments discussed above decreased segment operating profit by approximately $22 million. Operating costs in the second quarter of 2023 were $4 million higher than in the prior year second quarter, primarily due to temporary production curtailments to balance supply with demand, partially offset by solid operating performance and benefits from the region’s margin expansion initiatives. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates increased segment operating profit by $4 million in the second quarter of the current 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 with terms that range from one to five years and through these agreements, typically agree on price with the relevant supplier in advance of the period in which the natural gas will be delivered, which shields the Company from the full impact of increased natural gas prices, while such agreements remain in effect. The Company’s energy risk management approach is to have long-term arrangements covering at least 40% of its expected total energy use over a medium-term horizon (generally at least three years), where possible. In most energy markets, the Company currently has more than 50% coverage over such medium-term horizon. Coverage varies by geography with higher coverage in Europe. However, the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the resulting sanctions, potential sanctions or other adverse repercussions on 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 2023 was $118 million compared to $46 million for the second quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates, as well as $39 million related to note repurchase premiums, the write-off of deferred financing fees and related charges.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 26.6% compared to 22.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2022.  The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 differed from

30

the second quarter of 2022 due to the favorable capital gains tax rate on the sale of the land and building related to the Brampton, Canada plant in the second quarter of 2022, as well as a change in the mix of geographic earnings.

Net Earnings Attributable to the Company

For the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $110 million, or $0.69 per share (diluted), compared to $252 million, or $1.59 per share (diluted), in the second quarter of 2022. Earnings in the second quarter of 2023 and 2022 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, 2023 and 2022

Net sales for the first six months of 2023 increased $252 million, or 7%, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to higher prices, a favorable change in mix, and favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower shipments than the prior year period. Net sales were also negatively impacted by the sale of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia on March 1, 2022.

Earnings before income taxes were $74 million lower in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This decrease was due to higher interest expense, higher retained corporate and other costs and the non-recurrence of a gain on the sale of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia and 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 in the first six months of 2022, partially offset by higher segment operating profit compared to the same period in the prior year.

Segment operating profit for reportable segments in the first six months of 2023 was $236 million higher compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher net prices, strong operating performance, benefits from margin expansion initiatives, a higher inventory revaluation for cost inflation and the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower shipments, higher costs due to lower production volumes driven by temporary curtailments of production to balance with lower demand, elevated planned asset project activity and the unfavorable impacts from divestitures in 2022.

Net interest expense for the first half of 2023 increased $74 million compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher interest rates and higher note repurchase premiums, refinancing fees and related charges.

For the first six months of 2023, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $316 million, or $1.98 per share (diluted), compared to $340 million, or $2.14 per share (diluted), in the first six months of 2022. As discussed below, net earnings in the first half of 2023 and 2022 included items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other adjustments. These items decreased net earnings attributable to the Company by $30 million, or $0.19 per share, in the first six months of 2023 and increased net earnings attributable to the Company by $135 million, or $0.85 per share, in the first six months of 2022.

Results of Operations — First six months of 2023 compared with first six months of 2022

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales in the first six months of 2023 were $3,721 million compared with $3,469 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of $252 million, or 7%. Higher selling prices increased net sales by $542 million in

31

the first six months of 2023, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments, in tons, declined approximately 9% in the first half of 2023, partially offset by a favorable change in mix, which in total decreased net sales by approximately $288 million compared to the same period in 2022. This decline was mostly attributed to a challenging comparison in the prior year period, as well as disruption from temporary external events and lower demand due to softer consumer demand and inventory destocking across the value chain given macroeconomic uncertainty. Favorable foreign currency exchange rates increased net sales by $26 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by the strengthening of the Mexican 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 $8 million in the first half of 2023. Other sales were approximately $20 million lower in the first half of 2023 than the same period in the prior year driven by lower machine parts sales to third parties.

Americas: Net sales in the Americas in the first six months of 2023 were $1,996 million compared to $1,912 million for the first six months of 2022, an increase of $84 million, or 4%. Higher selling prices in the region increased net sales by $177 million in the first half of 2023, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments in the region were down approximately 7% in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, partially offset by a favorable change in mix, which together decreased net sales by approximately $116 million. Sales volumes (in tons) declined, primarily due to a challenging comparison to the prior year period, softer consumer consumption activity and inventory destocking across the value chain, as well as disruption from civil unrest in Peru and flooding in Northern California in the first quarter of 2023. The favorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes increased net sales by $31 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as the Mexican Peso strengthened compared to the U.S. dollar. The divestiture of the Cristar TableTop S.A.S. (“Cristar”) glass tableware business in March 2022 also reduced net sales by approximately $8 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to the prior year period.

Europe: Net sales in Europe in the first six months of 2023 were $1,662 million compared to $1,474 million for the same period in 2022, an increase of $188 million, or 13%. Higher selling prices in Europe increased net sales by $365 million in the first six months of 2023, driven by the pass through of higher cost inflation. Glass container shipments declined by approximately 11% in the first half of 2023, primarily due to a challenging comparison to the prior year period, softer consumer consumption activity, inventory destocking across the value chain and strikes in France. Lower shipments in the first half of 2023 decreased net sales by approximately $172 million compared to the first half of 2022. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates decreased the region’s net sales by approximately $5 million in the first six months of 2023 as the Euro weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Earnings before Income Taxes and Segment Operating Profit

Earnings before income taxes were $424 million in the first half of 2023 compared to $498 million in the first half of 2022, a decrease of $74 million. This decrease was due to higher interest expense, higher retained corporate and other costs and the non-recurrence of a gain on the sale of the Company’s glass tableware business in Colombia and 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 in the first six months of 2022, partially offset by higher segment operating profit 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

32

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 first half of 2023 was $724 million, compared to $488 million in the first half of 2022, an increase of $236 million, or approximately 48%. This increase was primarily due to higher net prices, strong operating performance, benefits from margin expansion initiatives, inventory revaluation for cost inflation and the favorable effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower shipments, higher costs due to temporary curtailments of production to balance with lower demand, elevated planned project activity and the unfavorable impacts from divestitures in 2022.

Americas: Segment operating profit in the Americas in the first six months of 2023 was $303 million, compared to $258 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of $45 million, or 17%. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation resulting in a net $149 million increase to segment operating profit in the first half of 2023. The impact of lower shipments discussed above resulted in a $36 million decrease to segment operating profit in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Operating costs in the first half of 2023 were $59 million higher than in the prior year period and were impacted by temporary curtailments of production to balance with lower demand, elevated planned asset project activity and lower income from a joint venture, partially offset by approximately $26 million of lower operating costs as a result of the region’s restructuring actions in 2022 (in line with management’s expectations) and benefits from margin expansion initiatives. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates increased segment operating profit by $3 million in the current year period.

In order to better match production to customer demand, the region has implemented temporary production curtailments.

The divestiture of the glass tableware business and the additional lease expense associated with the sale leaseback transactions reduced segment operating profit by approximately $12 million in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Europe: Segment operating profit in Europe in the first six months of 2023 was $421 million compared to $230 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of $191 million, or 83%. The benefit of higher selling prices exceeded cost inflation and increased segment operating profit by $201 million in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of the prior year. The impact of lower shipments discussed above decreased segment operating profit by approximately $44 million. Operating costs in the first half of 2023 were $33 million lower than in the prior year period and reflected benefits from the region’s margin expansion initiatives, favorable operating performance, inventory revaluation for cost inflation, the benefit of a $16 million subsidy received by the Italian government to help mitigate the impact of elevated energy costs and higher earnings from joint ventures, partially offset by temporary production curtailments to balance supply with demand. The effects of foreign currency exchange rates increased segment operating profit by $1 million in the first half of the current 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 with terms that range from one to five years and through these agreements, typically agree on price with the relevant supplier in advance of the period in which the natural gas will be delivered, which shields the Company from the full impact of increased natural gas prices, while such agreements remain in effect.

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 first six months of 2023 was $186 million compared to $112 million for the first six months of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates, as well as $39 million related to note repurchase premiums, the write-off of deferred financing fees and related charges.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 23.8% compared to 24.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2022.  The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2023 was not materially different from the first six months of 2022.

Net Earnings Attributable to Non-controlling Interests

Net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests for the first six months of 2023 was $7 million compared to $38 million for the first six months of 2022. This decrease was primarily due to the nonrecurrence of approximately $29 million of non-controlling interest recorded in the first six months 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 2023, the Company recorded net earnings attributable to the Company of $316 million, or $1.98 per share (diluted), compared to $340 million, or $2.14 per share (diluted), in the first six months of 2022. Earnings in the first half of 2023 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 Information

Full year 2023 sales shipments (in tons) are expected to be down by a mid-single digit to a high-single digit percentage compared to the prior year. In order to better match production to customer demand, the Company has implemented temporary production curtailments. This initiative will result in higher operating costs for the remainder of 2023 due to unabsorbed fixed costs.  The Company will continue to monitor business trends and will consider whether any permanent capacity closures will be necessary in the future to align its business with demand trends.  Any permanent capacity closures could result in material restructuring and impairment charges, as well as cash expenditures, in future periods.
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 be negatively impacted from incremental costs for expansion project activity and due to temporary production curtailments to align supply with demand.  The Company expects higher interest expense on its debt.  
The Company will continue to focus on long-term value creation, including advancing the MAGMA deployment. The Company remains on track with its first MAGMA greenfield plant in Kentucky starting in mid-2024.
Cash provided by operating activities is expected to be approximately $875 million for 2023.  This expectation primarily reflects potential variability in sales volume, mix and working capital trends over the second half of 2023.  Capital expenditures in 2023 are expected to be approximately $700 to $725 million. 
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 2023 were $54 million compared to $53 million in the second quarter of 2022 and were $114 million for the first six months of 2023 compared to $103 million for the first six months of 2022. These costs were higher in the first six months of 2023, primarily due to higher management incentive expense and elevated cost inflation.

The Company has initiated a strategic review of the remaining businesses in the former Asia Pacific region. This review is aimed at exploring options to maximize share owner value, focused on aligning the Company’s business with demand trends and improving the Company’s operating efficiency, cost structure and working capital management. The review is ongoing and may result in divestitures, corporate transactions or similar actions, and could cause the Company to incur restructuring, impairment, disposal or other related charges in future periods.

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

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.  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 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

35

was recorded to Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations in the first quarter of 2022.

See Note 16 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.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

On March 25, 2022, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries entered into a Credit Agreement and Syndicated Facility Agreement (the “Original Agreement”), which refinanced in full the previous credit agreement. The Original Agreement provided 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 allowed for a one-time borrowing of up to $600 million, the proceeds of which were used, in addition to other consideration paid by the Company and/or its subsidiaries, to fund an asbestos settlement trust (the “Paddock Trust”) 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 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information). On July 18, 2022, the Company drew down the $600 million delayed draw term loan to fund, together with other consideration, the Paddock Trust.

On August 30, 2022, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries entered into an Amendment No. 1 to its Credit Agreement and Syndicated Facility Agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”), which amends the Original Agreement (as amended by the Credit Agreement Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement Amendment provides for up to $500 million of additional borrowings in the form of term loans. The proceeds of such term loans were used, together with cash, to retire the $600 million delayed draw term loan. The term loans mature, and the revolving credit facilities terminate, in March 2027. The term loans borrowed under the Credit Agreement Amendment are secured by certain collateral of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, the Credit Agreement Amendment makes modifications to certain loan documents, in order to give the Company increased flexibility to incur secured debt in the future.

The Company recorded approximately $1 million of additional interest charges for third-party fees and the write-off of unamortized fees related to the Credit Agreement Amendment in the third quarter of 2022. The Company recorded approximately $2 million of additional interest charges for third-party fees incurred in connection with the execution of the Original Agreement and the write-off of unamortized fees related to the previous credit agreement in the first quarter of 2022.

At June 30, 2023, the Credit Agreement includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $950 million multicurrency revolving credit facility and $1.45 billion in term loan A facilities ($1.43 billion outstanding balance at June 30, 2023, net of debt issuance costs). At June 30, 2023, the Company had unused credit of $1.24 billion available under the Credit Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023 was 6.62%.

The Credit 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

36

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 Credit Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit 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 Credit Agreement. In such an event, the Company could not request additional borrowings under the revolving facilities, and all amounts outstanding under the Credit 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 Credit Agreement. If an event of default occurs under the Credit Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Credit 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, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Credit Agreement.  In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow additional funds under the Credit Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

The Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) determines pricing under the Credit Agreement. The interest rate on borrowings under the Credit 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 Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The margins range from 1.00% to 2.25% for Term SOFR loans and Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.00% to 1.25% 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 Credit 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 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, and certain foreign obligations under the Credit 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.

In August 2022, the Company redeemed $300 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023. Following the redemption, $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 remained outstanding. The redemption was funded with cash on hand. The Company recorded approximately $7 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the write-off of unamortized finance fees related to this redemption.

37

On May 11, 2023, the Company announced the commencement, by two indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, of tender offers to purchase any and all of its outstanding (i) 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, of which $250 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding, and (ii) 3.125% Senior Notes due 2024, of which €725 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding. On May 15, 2023, the Company announced the commencement, by an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of a tender offer to purchase any and all of its outstanding 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025, of which $300 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding.

On May 26, 2023, the Company repurchased $142 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, €666.7 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 3.125% Senior Notes due 2024, and $282.8 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025. Following the repurchase, approximately $108 million, €58 million, and $17 million aggregate principal amounts of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023, 3.125% Senior Notes due 2024, and 5.375% Senior Notes due 2025, respectively, remained outstanding. The repurchases were funded with the proceeds from the May 2023 senior notes issuances described below. The Company recorded approximately $39 million of additional interest charges related to the senior note repurchases conducted in the second quarter of 2023 for note repurchase premiums, the write-off of unamortized finance fees and the settlement of a related interest rate swap.

In May 2023, the Company issued €600 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that bear interest at a rate of 6.250% per annum and mature on May 15, 2028. Also, in May 2023, the Company issued $690 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that bear interest at a rate of 7.250% per annum and mature on May 15, 2031.  The senior notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The net proceeds, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately €593 million and $682 million, respectively, were used to redeem the aggregate principal amounts described in the May 2023 tender offers above.

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 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 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.

Material Cash Requirements

There have been no material changes to the Company’s material cash requirements at June 30, 2023 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, 2022.

Cash Flows

Operating activities: Cash provided by operating activities was $98 million and $120 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2023 was primarily due to a higher use of cash from working capital, partially offset by the non-recurrence of the gains from the sale of divested business and sale leaseback in the same period in 2022.

Working capital was a use of cash of $541 million in the first six months of 2023, compared to a use of cash of $250 million in the same period in 2022. The use of cash from working capital was higher in the first six months of 2023 primarily due to higher inventories compared to the same period in 2022. The Company’s use of its accounts receivable factoring programs resulted in an increase in cash provided by operating activities of approximately $21 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and a decrease in cash provided by operating activities of approximately $28 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding the impact of accounts receivable factoring, the Company’s days sales outstanding as of June 30, 2023 were comparable to June 30, 2022.

38

Investing activities: Cash utilized in investing activities was $266 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $66 million of cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Capital spending for property, plant and equipment was $268 million during the first six months of 2023, compared to $199 million in the same period in 2022. The Company estimates that its full year 2023 capital expenditures should be approximately $700 to $725 million.

Cash proceeds from the disposal of other businesses, asset sales and sale leasebacks approximated $3 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to $286 million received in the same period in 2022, which included proceeds on the sale of the land and building of the Company’s plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada and its glass tableware business in Colombia.

Financing activities:  Cash provided by financing activities was $132 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $243 million of cash utilized by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2022.  The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to a $429 million increase in net borrowings of debt in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

During each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid approximately $20 million in finance fees related to debt issuances and to debt that was repaid prior to its maturity.  Also, during each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company repurchased $20 million of shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company paid approximately $40 million and received approximately $38 million related to hedge activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.  Distributions to non-controlling interests decreased from $26 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 due to the non-recurrence of the gain on the sale of the Cristar glass tableware business in Colombia in 2022.  

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 (the next 12 months) and long-term basis (beyond the next 12 months). 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.


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, 2023 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities

39

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 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, (2) cost and availability of raw materials, labor, energy and transportation (including impacts related to the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and disruptions in supply of raw materials caused by transportation delays), (3) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the various governmental, industry and consumer actions related thereto, (4) competitive pressures, consumer preferences for alternative forms of packaging or consolidation among competitors and customers, (5) the Company’s ability to improve its glass melting technology, known as the MAGMA program, and implement it within the timeframe expected, (6) unanticipated operational disruptions, including higher capital spending, (7) the failure of the Company’s joint venture partners to meet their obligations or commit additional capital to the joint venture, (8) 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, (9) 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, (10) the Company’s ability to generate sufficient future cash flows to ensure the Company’s goodwill is not impaired, (11) the Company’s ability to achieve its strategic plan, (12) unanticipated expenditures with respect to data privacy, environmental, safety and health laws, (13) 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, (14) changes in capital availability or cost, including interest rate fluctuations and the ability of the Company to refinance debt on favorable terms, (15) foreign currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, (16) changes in tax laws or U.S. trade policies, (17) risks related to recycling and recycled content laws and regulations, (18) risks related to climate-change and air emissions, including related laws or regulations and increased environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) scrutiny and changing expectations from stakeholders and the other risk factors discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 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, 2023 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.


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

40

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, 2023.

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, 2023 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.

41

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, 2023.

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

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

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company purchased 444,752 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 on February 9, 2021 that is intended to offset stock-based compensation provided to the Company’s directors, officers, and employees. The current program has no expiration date. Approximately $50 million remained available for purchases under this program as of June 30, 2023.
