OF PRESENTATION
|
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Eastman Chemical Company (the "Company" or "Eastman") in accordance and consistent with the accounting policies stated in the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and, of necessity, include some amounts that are based upon management estimates and judgments. Future actual results could differ from such current estimates. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of all majority-owned subsidiaries and joint ventures. Eastman accounts for other joint ventures and investments where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, on the equity basis. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period data has been reclassified in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes to conform to current period presentation.
Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted amended accounting guidance on transfers of financial assets. The impact of this guidance was prospective with changes in full year 2010 Statements of Consolidated Financial Position and first six months 2010 Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For additional information, refer to Notes 7, "
Borrowings
", and 10, "
Commitments
".
The Company held $200 million of short-term time deposits as of June 30, 2011. These investments had staggered maturities between three and ten months at the investment date, which exceeded the 90 day threshold for classification as cash or cash equivalents.

DISCONT
IN
UED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
|
On January 31, 2011, the Company completed the sale of the polyethylene terephthalate ("PET") business, related assets at the Columbia, South Carolina site, and technology of its Performance Polymers segment for $615 million, subject to post-closing adjustments for working capital, and recognized a gain of approximately $30 million, net of tax. The Company contracted with the buyer for transition services to supply certain raw materials and services for a period of less than one year. Transition supply agreement revenues of approximately $175 million, relating to raw materials, were more than offset by costs and reported net in cost of sales. The PET business, assets, and technology sold were substantially all of the Performance Polymers segment and therefore the segment operating results are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented and are not included in results from continuing operations. The assets and liabilities of this business were reclassified as assets held for sale as of December 31, 2010.
Operating results of the discontinued operations which were formerly included in the Performance Polymers segment are summarized below:

Sterling Chemicals Inc.
On June 22, 2011, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Sterling Chemicals, Inc., a single site North American petrochemical producer, for $100 million in cash, subject to modest deductions at closing as provided in the merger agreement. The transaction, which is subject to customary conditions to closing, is expected to be completed in third quarter 2011.
Genovique Specialties Corporation
On April 30, 2010, Eastman completed the stock purchase of Genovique Specialties Corporation ("Genovique"), which was accounted for as a business combination. The acquired business is a global producer of specialty plasticizers, benzoic acid, and sodium benzoate. This acquisition included Genovique's manufacturing operations in Kohtla-Järve, Estonia and Chestertown, Maryland and a joint venture in Wuhan, China. Genovique's benzoate ester plasticizers were a strategic addition to Eastman's existing general-purpose and specialty non-phthalate plasticizers. The acquisition added differentiated, sustainably-advantaged products to Eastman's Performance Chemicals and Intermediates ("PCI") segment and enhances the Company's diversification into emerging geographic regions.
8
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The total purchase price was approximately $160 million, including assumed debt of $5 million. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition were expensed as incurred. The table below shows the final fair value purchase price allocation for the Genovique acquisition:

Acquired intangible assets consisted of $44 million in established customer relationships, $14 million in trademarks, and $1 million in developed technology. The customer relationships and developed technology intangible assets have remaining useful lives of 16 and 7 years, respectively. Trademarks have been determined to have an indefinite life. Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, was attributed to the synergies between the acquired company and Eastman.
Korean Acetate Tow Facility
On March 22, 2010, Eastman Fibers Korea Limited ("EFKL") completed the purchase of the acetate tow facility in Ulsan, Korea from SK Chemicals Co., Ltd. ("SK"), which has been accounted for as a business combination. EFKL is a venture between the Company and SK, in which the Company has controlling ownership and operates the facility. This acquisition established acetate tow manufacturing capacity for the Company in Asia and supports projected long term sales growth for acetate tow in the region.
The fair value of total consideration was $111 million, which was paid in installments beginning first quarter 2009 and completed second quarter 2010. The Company has determined the final fair value of the acquired assets to be as follows: property, plant, and equipment of $101 million, inventory of $5 million, and technology of $5 million.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
At June 30, 2011, the Company had a $700 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") in two tranches, with $125 million expiring in April 2012 and $575 million expiring in April 2013. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to interest at varying spreads above quoted market rates and a facility fee is paid on the total commitment. In addition, the Credit Facility contains a number of customary covenants and events of default including the requirement to maintain compliance with certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants for all periods presented. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility provides liquidity support for general corporate purposes.
At June 30, 2011, the Company also had a $200 million line of credit under its annually renewable accounts receivable securitization agreement ("A/R Facility"). The A/R Facility was renewed in July 2011. Borrowings under the A/R Facility are subject to interest rates based on a spread over the lender's borrowing costs, and the Company pays a fee to maintain availability of the A/R Facility. In addition, the A/R Facility contains a number of customary covenants and events of default, as well as the requirement to maintain compliance with certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants for all periods presented. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the A/R Facility.
Fair Value of Borrowings
The fair value for fixed-rate borrowings is based on current interest rates for comparable securities. The Company's floating-rate borrowings approximate fair value.

Hedging Programs
The Company is exposed to market risk, such as changes in currency exchange rates, raw material and energy costs, and interest rates. The Company uses various derivative financial instruments when appropriate pursuant to the Company's hedging policies to mitigate these market risk factors and their effect on the cash flows of the underlying transactions. Designation is performed on a specific exposure basis to support hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. For further information, see Note 12, "Derivatives", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Fair Value Hedges
Fair value hedges are defined as derivative or non-derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no fair value hedges. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had fair value hedges in the form of interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $146 million.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Cash Flow Hedges
Cash flow hedges are derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income, net of income taxes and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivatives representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings.
As of June 30, 2011, the total notional amounts of the Company's foreign exchange forward and option contracts were €617 million (approximately $885 million equivalent) and ¥13.4 billion (approximately $170 million equivalent), the total notional volume hedged for energy was approximately 2 million mmbtu (million british thermal units), and the total notional volume hedged for feedstock was approximately 1 million barrels. Additionally, at June 30, 2011, the total notional value of the interest rate swaps for the future issuance of debt ("forward starting interest rate swaps") was $300 million.
As of December 31, 2010, the total notional amounts of the Company's foreign exchange forward and option contracts were €354 million (approximately $475 million equivalent) and ¥12.8 billion (approximately $160 million equivalent), the total notional volume hedged for energy was approximately 4 million mmbtu, and the total notional volume hedged for feedstock was approximately 1 million barrels. Additionally, at December 31, 2010, the total notional value of the forward starting interest rate swaps was $300 million.
Fair Value Measurements
For additional information on fair value measurement,
see Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company has determined that its derivative assets and liabilities are level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following chart shows the financial assets and liabilities valued on a recurring basis and their location in the Statement of Financial Position. The Company currently has no nonqualifying derivatives or derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The fair value of the Company's derivative assets is based on estimates using standard pricing models. These standard pricing models use inputs which are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves and currency spot and forward rates. The fair value of commodity contracts is derived using forward curves supplied by an industry recognized and unrelated third party. In addition, on an ongoing basis, the Company tests a subset of its valuations against valuations received from the transaction's counterparty to validate the accuracy of its standard pricing models. Counterparties to these derivative contracts are highly rated financial institutions which the Company believes carry only a minimal risk of nonperformance.

For six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, there was no material ineffectiveness with regard to the Company's qualifying hedges.
Hedging Summary
At June 30, 2011 and 2010, monetized positions and mark-to-market gains and losses from raw materials and energy, currency, and certain interest rate hedges that were included in accumulated other comprehensive income before taxes totaled approximately $25 million in losses and $57 million in gains, respectively. If realized, approximately $11 million in losses in second quarter 2011 will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months. Ineffective portions of hedges are immediately recognized in cost of sales or other charges (income), net. There were no material gains or losses related to the ineffective portion of hedges recognized in 2011 or 2010.
The gains or losses on nonqualifying derivatives or derivatives that are not designated as hedges are marked to market in the line item "Other charges (income), net" of the Statements of Earnings, and, in all periods presented, represent foreign exchange derivatives denominated in multiple currencies. The Company recognized approximately $1 million net loss and $12 million net gain on nonqualifying derivatives during second quarter 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company recognized approximately $5 million net loss and $15 million net gain on nonqualifying derivatives during first six months 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Eastman offers various postretirement benefits to its employees.
DEFINED BENFIT PENSION PLANS AND POSTRETIREMENT WELFARE PLANS
Pension Plans:
Eastman maintains defined benefit pension plans that provide eligible employees with retirement benefits. Costs recognized for these benefits are recorded using estimated amounts, which may change as actual costs derived for the year are determined.
Postretirement Welfare Plans:
Eastman provides a subsidy toward life insurance, health care, and dental benefits for eligible retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007, and a subsidy toward health care and dental benefits for retirees' eligible survivors. In general, Eastman provides those benefits to retirees eligible under the Company's U.S. plans.
Eligible employees hired on or after January 1, 2007 have access to postretirement health care benefits, but Eastman does not provide a subsidy toward the premium cost of postretirement benefits for those employees. A few of the Company's non-U.S. operations have supplemental health benefit plans for certain retirees, the cost of which is not significant to the Company.
Costs recognized for benefits for eligible retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007 are recorded using estimated amounts, which may change as actual costs derived for the year are determined.

Purchasing Obligations and Lease Commitments
At June 30, 2011, the Company had various purchase obligations totaling approximately $1.5 billion over a period of approximately 15 years for materials, supplies, and energy incident to the ordinary conduct of business. The Company also had various lease commitments for property and equipment under cancelable, noncancelable, and month-to-month operating leases totaling $95 million over a period of several years. Of the total lease commitments, approximately 20 percent relates to machinery and equipment, including computer and communications equipment and production equipment; approximately 50 percent relates to real property, including office space, storage facilities and land; and approximately 30 percent relates to railcars.
Accounts Receivable Securitization Program
Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets which impacts the financial statement presentation for activity under the Company's $200 million accounts receivable securitization program. Beginning for periods after December 31, 2009, transfers of receivables interests that were previously treated as sold and removed from the balance sheet will be included in trade receivables, net and reflected as secured borrowings on the balance sheet. The Company's Statement of Financial Position at December 30, 2010 reflects an increase in trade receivables, $200 million of which was transferred at December 31, 2009 under the securitization program and reduced cash flows from operating activities by that amount for first six months 2010. As a result of the adoption of this accounting guidance, any amounts drawn on this accounts receivable securitization program would now be reflected as secured borrowings and disclosed in Note 7, "
Borrowings
".
Guarantees
The Company has operating leases with terms that require the Company to guarantee a portion of the residual value of the leased assets upon termination of the lease. These residual value guarantees at June 30, 2011
totaled $160 million and consisted primarily of leases for railcars and company aircraft. Leases with guarantee amounts totaling $11 million, $139 million, and $10 million will expire in the second half of 2011, 2012, and 2014 and beyond, respectively. The Company believes, based on current facts and circumstances, that the likelihood of material residual guarantee payments is remote.
Variable Interest Entities
The accounting guidance on the consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") is effective for all VIEs or potential VIEs with which the Company is involved on or after January 1, 2010. This guidance amends the evaluation criteria to identify which entity has a controlling financial interest of a variable interest entity and requires ongoing reassessments. The Company has evaluated its material contractual relationships under the new guidance and concluded that the entities involved in these relationships are not VIEs or, in the case of Primester, a joint venture that manufactures cellulose acetate at the Company's Kingsport, Tennessee plant, the Company has shared control of the VIE. As such, the Company is not required to consolidate these entities.

ENTAL MATTERS
|
Certain Eastman manufacturing sites generate hazardous and nonhazardous wastes, the treatment, storage, transportation, and disposal of which are regulated by various governmental agencies. In connection with the cleanup of various hazardous waste sites, the Company, along with many other entities, has been designated a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which potentially subjects PRPs to joint and several liability for such cleanup costs. In addition, the Company will be required to incur costs for environmental remediation and closure and postclosure under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. Reserves for environmental contingencies have been established in accordance with Eastman's policies described in Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies", to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Because of expected sharing of costs, the availability of legal defenses, and the Company's preliminary assessment of actions that may be required, management does not believe that the Company's liability for these environmental matters, individually or in the aggregate, will be material to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company's total reserve for environmental contingencies was $34 million and $40 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Estimated future environmental expenditures for remediation costs range from the minimum or best estimate of $9 million to the maximum of $26 million at June 30, 2011, and from the minimum or best estimate of $10 million to the maximum of $27 million at December 31, 2010. The best estimate accrued to date over the facilities' estimated useful lives for asset retirement obligation costs are $25 million and $30 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
The Company completed the sale of the PET business on January 31, 2011. As a result, $3 million in asset retirement obligation costs were divested.

While the Company is unable to predict the outcome of these matters, it does not believe, based upon currently available facts, that the ultimate resolution of any such pending matters will have a material adverse effect on its overall financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, adverse developments could negatively impact earnings or cash flows in a particular future period.

Y ISSUED
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
|
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended accounting guidance related to fair value measurements and disclosures with the purpose of converging the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance issued by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The guidance includes amendments that clarify the intent of the application of existing fair value measurement requirements along with amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for fair value measurements and disclosures. The Company has concluded that the new guidance will not have a material impact on its Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings, Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, or related disclosures.
In June 2011, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance related to presentation of comprehensive income. The standards update is intended to help financial statement users better understand the causes of an entity’s change in financial position and results of operation. It is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The amendments eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments require that all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance also requires that reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income be presented on the face of the financial statement where the components of net income and other comprehensive income are presented. The Company plans on adopting this guidance for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is currently assessing the impact on financial statement presentation of adopting this guidance.

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon the consolidated financial statements for Eastman Chemical Company ("Eastman" or the "Company"), which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, including related notes, and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements, including related notes, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All references to earnings per share ("EPS") contained in this report are diluted earnings per share unless otherwise noted.
On January 31, 2011, the Company completed the sale of the PET business, related assets at the Columbia, South Carolina site, and technology of its Performance Polymers segment for $615 million, subject to post-closing adjustments for working capital, and recognized a gain of approximately $30 million, net of tax. The Company contracted with the buyer for transition services to supply certain raw materials and services for a period of less than one year. The PET business, assets, and technology sold were substantially all of the Performance Polymers segment. Performance Polymers segment operating results are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented and are therefore not included in results from continuing operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The assets and liabilities of this business were reclassified as assets held for sale as of December 31, 2010. The sale is not expected to impact product lines in the Specialty Plastics segment. For additional information, see Note 2, "
Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale
", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
22
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING
ESTIMATES
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, the Company's management must make decisions which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and assumptions on which to base estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to allowances for doubtful accounts, impairment of long-lived assets, environmental costs, U.S. pension and other post-employment benefits, litigation and contingent liabilities, and income taxes. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company's management believes the critical accounting estimates described in Part II, Item 7 of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K are the most important to the fair presentation of the Company's financial condition and results. These estimates require management's most significant judgments in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements.
PRESENTATION
OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This Management's Discussion and Analysis includes the following non-GAAP financial measures and accompanying reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP.
|
·
|
Company and segment operating earnings, Company earnings from continuing operations, and diluted earnings per share excluding the asset impairments and restructuring charges (gains), net, described below; and
|
|
·
|
Cash flows from operating activities excluding the impact of adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets and the impact of tax payment for the gain on the sale of the PET business, described below.
|
In second quarter 2011, there was a $15 million gain from the sale of the previously impaired methanol and ammonia assets related to the terminated Beaumont, Texas industrial gasification project.
In second quarter 2011, cash flows included the use of $55 million of a total anticipated $110 million tax payment for the tax gain on the sale of the PET business completed in first quarter 2011.
In second quarter 2010, there were $3 million in restructuring charges, primarily for severance associated with the acquisition and integration of Genovique Specialties Corporation ("Genovique").
In first quarter 2010, the Company adopted amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets which impacts the financial statement presentation for activity under the Company's $200 million accounts receivable securitization program. For periods beginning after December 31, 2009, transfers of receivables interests that were previously treated as sold and removed from the balance sheet will be included in trade receivables, net and reflected as secured borrowings on the balance sheet. The Company's Statement of Financial Position at December 31, 2010 reflects an increase in trade receivable of $200 million, the amount transferred at December 31, 2009 under the securitization program, which reduced cash flows from operating activities by that amount for first quarter 2010.
23
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For evaluation and analysis of ongoing business results and of the impact on the Company and its segments of strategic decisions and actions to reduce costs and to improve the profitability of the Company, Eastman's management believes that Company and segment earnings should be considered both with and without asset impairments and restructuring charges (gains), net. Management believes that investors can better evaluate and analyze historical and future business trends if they also consider the reported Company and segment results, respectively, without these items. In addition, management believes that cash provided by and used in operating activities should be considered both with and without the impact of adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets and tax payments for the gain on the sale of the PET business. Management utilizes these measures to evaluate its cash flows and cash position and in determining certain performance-based compensation. These measures, excluding the identified items, are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternatives to the GAAP measures of performance.

The Company generated sales revenue of $1.9 billion and $1.5 billion in second quarter 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in sales revenue was due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and were also attributed to strengthened demand, particularly in the U.S., and tight industry supply. The higher sales volume was primarily due to growth in plasticizer product lines, increased demand for acetyl chemicals, the fourth quarter 2010 restart of a previously idled olefin cracking unit at the Longview, Texas facility, and strengthened end-use demand primarily in the packaging, transportation, and durable goods markets.
The Company generated sales revenue of $3.6 billion and $2.9 billion in first six months 2011 and 2010, respectively. Sales revenue increases were due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and were also attributed to strengthened demand, particularly in the U.S., and tight industry supply. The higher sales volume was primarily due to growth in plasticizer product lines, the fourth quarter 2010 restart of a previously idled olefin cracking unit at the Longview, Texas facility, and strengthened end-use demand primarily in the packaging and transportation markets. The increase was also due to growth initiatives including the increased utilization of the Korean acetate tow manufacturing facility and the Eastman Tritan
TM
copolyester resin manufacturing facility, and the acquisition of the Genovique plasticizer product lines.
Operating earnings were $318 million in second quarter 2011 compared with $246 million in second quarter 2010 and $602 million in first six months 2011 compared with $435 million in first six months 2010. Operating earnings included a $15 million gain from the sale of the previously impaired methanol and ammonia assets related to the terminated Beaumont, Texas industrial gasification project in second quarter and first six months 2011 and restructuring charges of $3 million in second quarter and first six months 2010. Excluding these items, the increase in both comparable periods was due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume more than offsetting higher raw material and energy costs. In first six months 2010, operating earnings included the cumulative negative impact of approximately $25 million related to the outage at the Longview, Texas manufacturing facility, net of insurance proceeds from partial settlement primarily reflected in the Performance Chemicals and Intermediates ("PCI") and Coatings, Adhesives, Specialty Polymers, and Inks ("CASPI") segments. First six months 2010 operating earnings also included $12 million from acetyl license revenue.
The Company generated $61 million of cash from operating activities during first six months 2011, after a $100 million contribution to the U.S. defined benefit pension plan and $55 million of a total anticipated $110 million tax payment for the tax gain on the sale of the PET business completed in first quarter 2011. Working capital increased by $263 million primarily due to increased accounts receivable attributed to increased sales revenue and increased inventory resulting from increased raw material prices. The Company used $19 million cash from operating activities during the first six months of 2010 including a $200 million increase in working capital resulting from the adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets which impacted the financial statement presentation for activity under the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program.
24
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In the first half of 2011 the Company has made progress on its growth initiatives by:
|
·
|
entering into a joint venture in China for a 30,000-ton acetate tow manufacturing facility, expected to be operational in 2013;
|
|
·
|
constructing a demonstration facility for market testing of acetylated wood, which is expected to be producing chemically-modified wood in fourth quarter 2011, allowing for a market launch beginning in 2012 to several test markets;
|
|
·
|
commencing commericial introduction of the new Eastman Cerfis
TM
technology;
|
|
·
|
announcing the new Eastman
TM
microfiber technology; and
|
|
·
|
entering into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Sterling Chemicals, Inc. ("Sterling"), a single site North American petrochemical producer, to produce non-phthalate plasticizers, including Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizers, and acetic acid.
|
For additional information on acetylated wood, Eastman Cerfis
TM
technology, and Eastman
TM
microfiber technology, see "Summary by Operating Segment" in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Company expects costs related to shutdowns in the second half of 2011 to be approximately $25 million higher compared with the first half of 2011. These shutdowns include the planned and unplanned shutdowns of two of the three Texas olefin cracking units, and planned shutdowns of the Kingsport coal gasification facility and of Specialty Plastics manufacturing capacity to make new capacity expansions operational.

Sales revenue in second quarter 2011 compared to second quarter 2010 increased $383 million. The increase was primarily due to higher selling prices in all segments and higher sales volume (particularly in the PCI segment). The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and were also attributed to strengthened demand, particularly in the U.S., and tight industry supply. The higher sales volume was primarily due to growth in plasticizer product lines, increased demand for acetyl chemicals, the fourth quarter 2010 restart of a previously idled olefins cracking unit at the Longview, Texas facility, and strengthened end-use demand in the packaging, transportation, and durable goods markets.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in second quarter and first six months 2011 were higher compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 primarily due to increased compensation expense, primarily performance-based compensation, and higher costs of growth and business development initiatives.
Research and development ("R&D") expenses were higher in second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 primarily due to higher R&D expenses for growth initiatives, including acetylated wood.
Asset Impairments and Restructuring Charges (Gains), Net
In second quarter and first six months 2011, there was a $15 million gain from the sale of the previously impaired methanol and ammonia assets related to the terminated Beaumont, Texas industrial gasification project.

Sales revenue increased in second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and were also attributed to strengthened demand, particularly in the U.S., and tight industry supply. The higher sales volume in second quarter 2011 was attributed primarily to strengthened end-use demand in the packaging, transportation, and durable goods markets, particularly in the U.S. The higher sales volume in first six months 2011 was attributed primarily to strengthened end-use demand in the durable goods, packaging, and transportation markets, particularly in the U.S.
Operating earnings increased in second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 primarily due to higher selling prices, higher sales volume, and the increased benefits from cracking propane to produce low-cost propylene, which more than offset higher raw material and energy costs. Operating earnings in first six months 2010 included approximately $10 million in charges from the outage at the Company's Texas manufacturing facility, net of a partial settlement of a related insurance claim.
29
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company is progressing on both organic and inorganic growth initiatives in the CASPI segment. The Company is expanding capacity for its specialty hydrocarbon resins through an additional expansion of the Company's hydrogenated hydrocarbon resins manufacturing capacity in Middelburg, the Netherlands which is expected to be operational in fourth quarter 2011, an additional debottleneck of the hydrogenated hydrocarbon facility in Longview, Texas, which was operational in first quarter 2011, and an expansion of the pure monomer and hydrogenated resins production capacity in Jefferson, Pennsylvania, which is expected to be operational in the first half of 2012. On July 1, 2011, the Company purchased Dynaloy, LLC, a producer of formulated solvents
. While Dynaloy revenues and earnings would not have been material to those of the CASPI segment, Dynaloy adds material science capabilities that are expected to complement growth of the segment’s electronic materials product line.
The Company expects the CASPI segment’s portion of costs related to planned and unplanned shutdowns of two of the three Texas olefin cracking units in the second half of 2011 to be approximately $7 million higher compared with the first half of 2011 .

Sales revenue increased in second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 primarily due to a favorable shift in product mix, higher sales volume, and higher selling prices. The favorable shift in product mix was mainly due to higher acetate tow sales volume resulting from increased utilization of the recently completed acetate tow manufacturing facility in Korea. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for wood pulp.
Operating earnings increased in second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 primarily due to higher acetate tow sales volume in Asia Pacific and higher selling prices, partially offset by higher raw material and energy costs.
The Company has entered into a joint venture for a 30,000-ton acetate tow manufacturing facility in China. The facility is expected to be operational in 2013. Eastman will have 45 percent ownership of the joint venture and will provide 100 percent of the acetate flake raw material to the joint venture from the Company's manufacturing facility in Kingsport.

Sales revenue increased in second quarter 2011 compared to second quarter 2010 due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume. The higher selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and were also attributed to strengthened demand in the U.S. and tight industry supply. The higher sales volume was primarily due to growth in plasticizer product lines and was also attributed to customer buying patterns for acetyl chemicals. In addition, sales volume increased due to the fourth quarter 2010 restart of a previously idled olefin cracking unit at the Company’s Longview, Texas facility.
Sales revenue increased in first six months 2011 compared to first six months 2010 due to higher sales volume and higher selling prices. The higher sales volume was primarily due to the restart of the previously idled Texas olefin cracking unit and growth in plasticizer product lines, which included the acquired Genovique plasticizer product lines, particularly in the U.S. and Europe. The increased selling prices were in response to higher raw material and energy costs and also attributed to strengthened demand in the U.S. and tight industry supply, particularly for olefin-derivative product lines.
Increased operating earnings in both second quarter and first six months 2011 was primarily due to higher selling prices, higher sales volume, and the increased benefits from cracking propane to produce low-cost propylene, which more than offset higher raw material and energy costs. Operating earnings in second quarter and first six months 2010 included $3 million in restructuring charges, primarily for severance associated with the acquisition and integration of Genovique. Operating earnings in first six months 2010 also included the cumulative negative impact of approximately $12 million from the outage at the Company's Texas manufacturing facility, net of a partial settlement of a related insurance claim, and $12 million from acetyl license revenue.
The Company expects the PCI segment’s portion of costs related to planned and unplanned shutdowns in the second half of 2011 to be approximately $10 million higher compared with the first half of 2011.
31
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In second quarter, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Sterling Chemicals, Inc., a single site North American petrochemical producer, for $100 million in cash, subject to modest deductions at closing as provided in the merger agreement. The transaction, which includes Sterling’s acetic acid and plasticizer manufacturing assets in Texas City, Texas, is subject to customary conditions to closing and is expected to be completed in third quarter. Excluding costs and charges related to the acquisition, the Company expects the acquired business will be slightly accretive to 2011 earnings per share. Eastman plans to modify and restart Sterling’s currently idled plasticizer manufacturing facility to produce non-phthalate plasticizers, including Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizers.
The Company is increasing capacity to produce its largest oxo aldehyde chemical, 2-ethyl hexanol ("2-EH"), which is expected to be operational in 2012. The Company both sells 2-EH to external markets and uses it internally in its plasticizers production. End markets for 2-EH include building and construction, transportation, medical, and consumer and industrial.

Sales revenue increased in second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to second quarter and first six months 2010 primarily due to higher selling prices. Selling prices increased in response to higher raw material and energy costs, particularly for paraxylene.
Operating earnings increased in second quarter 2011 compared to second quarter 2010 in the Asia Pacific region due to higher selling prices and in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa region due to both higher sales volume and higher selling prices.
Operating earnings increased in first six months 2011 compared to first six months 2010 due to higher sales volume and increased capacity utilization, particularly for the new Eastman Tritan™ copolyester resin manufacturing facility, which led to lower unit costs, and increased selling prices which more than offset higher raw material and energy costs.
The monomer manufacturing facility and the first Eastman Tritan
TM
copolyester resin manufacturing facility in Kingsport, Tennessee commenced production in first quarter 2010. The Company is adding another 30,000 metric tons of resin capacity for Tritan
TM
, which is expected to be operational in early 2012. The Company is also expanding its capacity for cyclohexane dimethanol, a monomer used in the manufacture of copolyester, by approximately 25 percent and expects the capacity to be operational in two phases in mid-2011 and in 2012, and is expanding its cellulose triacetate
capacity by approximately 70 percent, with the new capacity expected to be operational in second quarter 2012.
32
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company expects the Specialty Plastics segment’s portion of costs in the second half of 2011 to be approximately $6 million higher compared with the first half of 2011, related to planned shutdowns of manufacturing capacity to make new capacity expansions operational.

Sales revenue in Asia Pacific increased in first six months 2011 compared to first six months 2010 primarily due to higher selling prices in all segments and higher sales volume primarily in the Fibers and CASPI segments.
Sales revenue in Europe, Middle East, and Africa increased in first six months 2011 compared to first six months 2010 due to higher sales volume, particularly in the PCI segment, and higher selling prices in all segments,
predominantly in
the CASPI segment
.
Sales revenue in Latin America increased in first six months 2011 compared to first six months 2010 primarily due to higher selling prices, particularly in the PCI and CASPI segments, and higher sales volume in the CASPI segment.
With a substantial portion of sales to customers outside the United States, Eastman is subject to the risks associated with operating in international markets. To mitigate its exchange rate risks, the Company frequently seeks to negotiate payment terms in U.S. dollars or euros. In addition, where it deems such actions advisable, the Company engages in foreign currency hedging transactions and requires letters of credit and prepayment for shipments where its assessment of individual customer and country risks indicates their use is appropriate.

First six months 2010 cash from operating activities reflected the adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets which resulted in $200 million of receivables, which were previously accounted for as sold and removed from the balance sheet when transferred under the accounts receivable securitization program, being included on the first quarter balance sheet as trade receivables, net. This increase in receivables reduced cash from operations by $200 million in first quarter 2010.
|
|
(2)
|
Second quarter 2011 cash flows included the use of $55 million of a total anticipated $110 million tax payment for the tax gain on the sale of the PET business completed in first quarter 2011.
|
Cash provided by operating activities was $61 million during first six months 2011. The Company contributed $100 million to the U.S. defined benefit pension plan, which is reflected as a reduction in "Post-employment obligations" on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Additionally, the Company paid $55 million of a total anticipated $110 million tax payment for the tax gain on the sale of the PET business completed in first quarter 2011. Working capital increased by $263 million primarily due to increased accounts receivable attributed to increased sales revenue and increased inventory resulting mostly from increased raw material prices. Cash provided by operating activities was $181 million during first six months 2010 excluding a $200 million increase in working capital resulting from the adoption of amended accounting guidance for transfers of financial assets which impacted the financial statement presentation for activity under the Company's accounts receivable securitization program.
Cash provided by investing activities was $227 million in first six months 2011 compared to $257 million used in investing activities in first six months 2010. First six months 2011 included the receipt of $615 million from the sale of the PET business. Also, in first six months 2011 the Company invested $200 million in short-term time deposits having staggered maturities between three and ten months at the investment date and had capital expenditures of $206 million.
First six months 2010 included the acquisition of Genovique, payments for the acquisition of the Korean acetate tow facility, and capital expenditures of $76 million.
Cash used in financing activities totaled $170 million in first six months 2011 compared to $83 million used in financing activities in first six months 2010. Share repurchases in first six months 2011 were $177 million.
The payment of dividends and proceeds from stock option exercises are also reflected in financing activities in all periods.
The Company expects free cash flow (cash from operating activities less capital expenditures and dividends, excluding the tax payments on the sale of the PET business) in 2011 of approximately $200 million, assuming capital expenditures of approximately $450 million and the $100 million U.S. defined benefit pension plan funding in first quarter 2011. The priorities for uses of available cash in 2011 are payment of the quarterly cash dividend, funding targeted growth initiatives (including organic initiatives and joint ventures and acquisitions) and defined benefit pension plans, and repurchasing shares.

In addition, at June 30, 2011, the Company had access to the sources of liquidity described below.
The Company had a $700 million revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility") in two tranches, with $125 million expiring in April 2012 and $575 million expiring in April 2013. The Company expects to renew or replace the Credit Facility on similar terms, subject to market conditions, before the end of second quarter 2012. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to interest at varying spreads above quoted market rates and a facility fee is paid on the total commitment. In addition, the Credit Facility contains a number of customary covenants and events of default, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants for all periods presented. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility provides liquidity support for general corporate purposes.
The Company also had a $200 million line of credit under its annually renewable accounts receivable securitization agreement ("A/R Facility"). The A/R Facility was renewed in July 2011. Borrowings under the A/R Facility are subject to interest rates based on a spread over the lender's borrowing costs, and the Company pays a fee to maintain availability of the A/R Facility. In addition, the A/R Facility contains a number of customary covenants and events of default, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants for all periods presented. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the A/R Facility.
For more information regarding interest rates, refer to Note 7, "
Borrowings
", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In first quarter 2011, the Company made a $100 million contribution to its U.S. defined benefit pension plan. In 2010, the Company made $35 million in contributions to its U.S. defined benefit pension plan.
Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, short-term time deposits,
and the other sources of liquidity described above are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash flow requirements. However, the Company's cash flows from operations can be affected by numerous factors including risks associated with global operations, raw material availability and cost, demand for and pricing of Eastman's products, capacity utilization, and other factors described under "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" below. The Company believes maintaining a financial profile consistent with an investment grade company is important to its long term strategic and financial flexibility.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures were $206 million and $76 million in first six months 2011 and 2010, respectively. The higher expenditures in first six months 2011 were primarily due to capital spending on organic growth initiatives, particularly in the Specialty Plastics, CASPI, and PCI segments. The lower expenditures in first six months 2010 were primarily due to the deferral of discretionary spending in response to the global recession. The Company expects that 2011 capital spending will be approximately $450 million for required maintenance, organic growth initiatives, and environmental infrastructure.
Other Commitments
At June 30, 2011, the Company's obligations related to notes and debentures totaled approximately $1.6 billion to be paid over a period of approximately 15 years.
The Company has $150 million principal amount of 7% notes maturing in second quarter 2012. The Company expects to fund this obligation through available cash, other available sources of liquidity, or new borrowings. See Note 7, "
Borrowings
", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
Other borrowings, related primarily to credit facility borrowings, totaled $5 million.
The Company had various purchase obligations at June 30, 2011 totaling approximately $1.5 billion over a period of approximately 15 years for materials, supplies and energy incident to the ordinary conduct of business. For information regarding the Company's lease commitments, refer to Note 10, "
Commitments
", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In addition, the Company had other liabilities at June 30, 2011 totaling approximately $1.3 billion primarily related to pension, retiree medical, and other post-employment obligations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Off Balance Sheet and Other Financing Arrangements
If certain operating leases are terminated by the Company, it has guaranteed a portion of the residual value loss, if any, incurred by the lessors in disposing of the related assets. For information on the Company's residual value guarantees, refer to Note 10, "
Commitments
", to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The accounting guidance on consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") is effective for all VIEs or potential VIEs with which the Company is involved on or after January 1, 2010. This guidance amends the evaluation criteria to identify which entity has a controlling financial interest of a variable interest entity and requires ongoing reassessments. The Company has evaluated its material contractual relationships under this new guidance and has concluded that the entities involved in these relationships are not VIEs or, in the case of Primester, a joint venture that manufactures cellulose acetate at the Company's Kingsport, Tennessee plant, the Company has shared control of the VIE. As such, the Company is not required to consolidate these entities.
Guarantees and claims also arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with suppliers, customers, and other parties when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others, if specified triggering events occur. Non-performance under a contract could trigger an obligation of the Company. These potential claims include actions based upon intellectual property and environmental matters, and other indemnifications. The ultimate effect on future financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists as to the final outcome of these claims. However, while the ultimate liabilities resulting from such claims may be significant to results of operations in the period recognized, management does not anticipate they will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or liquidity.
Treasury Stock
In August 2010, the Company's Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company completed the $300 million repurchase authorization in June 2011, acquiring a total of 3.6 million shares.
In February 2011, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an additional repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company's outstanding common stock at such times, in such amounts, and on such terms, as determined to be in the best interests of the Company. As of June 30, 2011, a total of 599,715 shares of common stock have been repurchased under this authorization for a total amount of approximately $61 million.
During first six months 2011, the Company repurchased 1,849,911 shares of common stock for a cost of approximately $177 million.
Dividends
The Company declared cash dividends of $0.47 per share and $0.44 per share in second quarter 2011 and 2010 and $0.94 per share and $0.88 per share in first six months 2011 and 2010, respectively.
RECENTLY
ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended accounting guidance related to fair value measurements and disclosures with the purpose of converging the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance issued by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The guidance includes amendments that clarify the intent of the application of existing fair value measurement requirements along with amendments that change a particular principle or requirement for fair value measurements and disclosures. The Company has concluded that the new guidance will not have a material impact on its Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings, Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, or related disclosures.
38
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In June 2011, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance related to presentation of comprehensive income. The standards update is intended to help financial statement users better understand the causes of an entity’s change in financial position and results of operation. It is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The amendments eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments require that all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance also requires that reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income be presented on the face of the financial statement where the components of net income and other comprehensive income are presented. The Company plans on adopting this guidance for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is currently assessing the impact on financial statement presentation of adopting this guidance.
2011 OUTLOOK
The Company expects to benefit from a strengthening global economy and from the combination of the restart of an olefin cracking unit, lower interest expense, full year integration of the Genovique acquisition and Korean acetate tow manufacturing facility, strong market adoption of the Tritan
TM
copolyester products, continued substitution of Eastman products for other materials, and new applications for existing products.
The Company expects the volatility of market prices for raw materials and energy to continue and that the Company will continue to use pricing and hedging strategies to offset this volatility, and for raw material and energy costs to be higher than 2010.
The Company expects to continue with growth initiatives in all segments, as well as to continue to explore and invest in R&D initiatives at a corporate level that are aligned with macro trends in sustainability, consumerism, and energy efficiency through high performance materials, advanced cellulosics, and environmentally-friendly chemistry.
The Company expects capital spending to be approximately $450 million for required maintenance, organic growth initiatives, and environmental infrastructure.
The Company expects approximately $200 million of free cash flow (operating cash flow less capital expenditures and dividends, excluding the tax payments on the sale of the PET business).
The Company expects in third quarter to complete the acquisition of Sterling Chemicals, Inc., subject to customary conditions to closing, a single site North American petrochemical producer, which will be used to produce non-phthalate plasticizers, including Eastman 168™ non-phthalate plasticizers, and acetic acid, in the PCI segment. Excluding costs and charges related to the acquisition, the Company expects the acquired business to be slightly accretive to Eastman's full-year 2011 earnings per share.
The Company expects costs related to planned and unplanned shutdowns in the second half of 2011 to be approximately $25 million higher compared with the first half of 2011, which will be primarily reflected in the PCI and CASPI segments.
Based upon the foregoing expectations and expectations for seasonal sales volume declines, and excluding costs and charges related to acquisitions that could be completed in the second half of 2011, the Company expects third quarter 2011 earnings per share to be slightly higher than third quarter 2010 earnings per share of $2.22 and full-year 2011 earnings per share to be slightly higher than $9.25 (excluding asset impairment and restructuring charges (gains), net, in first six months).
See "Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors" below.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD
-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
The expectations under "Outlook" and certain other statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which are not statements of historical fact may be "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. These statements, and other written and oral forward-looking statements made by the Company from time to time may relate to, among other things, such matters as planned and expected capacity increases and utilization; anticipated capital spending; expected depreciation and amortization; environmental matters; legal proceedings; exposure to, and effects of hedging of, raw material and energy costs, foreign currencies and interest rates; global and regional economic, political, and business conditions; competition; growth opportunities; supply and demand, volume, price, cost, margin, and sales; earnings, cash flow, dividends and other expected financial results and conditions; expectations, strategies, and plans for individual assets and products, businesses and segments as well as for the whole of Eastman; cash requirements and uses of available cash; financing plans and activities; pension expenses and funding; credit ratings; anticipated restructuring, acquisition, divestiture, and consolidation activities; cost reduction and control efforts and targets; integration of any acquired businesses; strategic initiatives and development, production, commercialization, and acceptance of new products, services and technologies and related costs; asset, business and product portfolio changes; and expected tax rates and net interest costs.
These plans and expectations are based upon certain underlying assumptions, including those mentioned with the specific statements. Such assumptions are based upon internal estimates and analyses of current market conditions and trends, management plans and strategies, economic conditions and other factors. These plans and expectations and the underlying assumptions are necessarily subject to risks and uncertainties inherent in projecting future conditions and results. Actual results could differ materially from expectations expressed in any forward-looking statement if one or more of the underlying assumptions or expectations proves to be inaccurate or is unrealized. In addition to the factors described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following are the most significant known factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those in any such forward-looking statement. Additional factors not presently known to the Company, or that the Company does not currently believe to be material, may also cause actual results to differ materially from expectations.
Adverse and uncertain conditions in the global economy and the financial markets could negatively impact the Company.
While economic and financial market conditions have improved from those in 2008 and 2009, continued uncertain conditions in the global economy and global capital markets may adversely affect the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. The Company's business and operating results were affected by the impact of the recent
global recession, including the credit market crisis, declining consumer and business confidence, fluctuating commodity prices, volatile exchange rates, and other challenges that affected the global economy. If the global economy or financial markets again deteriorate or experience significant new disruptions, the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected; the Company's ability to access the credit and capital markets under attractive rates and terms could be constrained, which may negatively impact the Company's liquidity or ability to pursue certain growth initiatives.
Volatility in costs for strategic raw material and energy commodities or disruption in the supply of these commodities could adversely affect our financial results.
The Company is reliant on certain strategic raw material and energy commodities for its operations and utilizes risk management tools, including hedging, as appropriate, to mitigate short-term market fluctuations in raw material and energy costs. These risk mitigation measures cannot eliminate all exposure to market fluctuations. In addition, natural disasters, plant interruptions, changes in laws or regulations, war or other outbreak of hostilities or terrorism, and breakdown or degradation of transportation infrastructure used for delivery of strategic raw material and energy commodities, could adversely impact both the cost and availability of these commodities.
40
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company could be materially adversely affected by disruptions to manufacturing operations or related infrastructure.
Significant limitation of the Company's ability to manufacture products due to disruption of manufacturing operations or related infrastructure could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s sales revenue, costs, results of operations, and financial condition. Disruptions could occur due to internal factors such as computer or equipment malfunction, operator error, or process failures; or external factors such as natural disasters, pandemic illness, changes in laws or regulations, war or other outbreak of hostilities or terrorism, or breakdown or degradation of transportation infrastructure used for delivery of supplies to the Company or for delivery of products to customers.
Loss or financial weakness of any of the Company's largest customers could adversely affect our financial results.
The Company has an extensive customer base; however, loss of, or material financial weakness of, certain of our largest customers could adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations until such business is replaced and no assurances can be made that the Company would be able to regain or replace any lost customers.
Growth initiatives may not achieve desired business or financial objectives and may require a significant use of resources in excess of those estimated or budgeted for such initiatives.
The Company continues to identify and pursue growth opportunities through both internal (or "organic") development and acquisitions and joint ventures to diversify and extend the portfolio of our businesses. These growth opportunities include development and commercialization of new products and technologies, expansion into new markets and geographic regions, and alliances, ventures, and acquisitions that complement and extend the Company's portfolio of businesses and capabilities. There can be no assurance that such efforts, investments, or acquisitions and alliances (including integration of acquired businesses) will result in financially successful commercialization of products or acceptance by existing or new customers or new markets or achieve their underlying strategic business objectives or that they will be beneficial to the Company's results of operations. There also can be no assurance that capital projects for such growth efforts can be completed within the time or at the costs projected due, among other things, to demand for and availability of construction materials and labor and obtaining regulatory approvals and operating permits and reaching agreement on terms of key agreements and arrangements with potential suppliers and customers. Any such delays or cost overruns or the inability to obtain such approvals or to reach such agreements on acceptable terms could negatively affect the returns from any proposed investments and projects.
Legislative or regulatory actions could increase the Company's future compliance costs.
The Company's facilities and businesses are subject to complex health, safety and environmental laws and regulations, which require and will continue to require significant expenditures to remain in compliance with such laws and regulations. The Company's accruals for such costs and associated liabilities are subject to changes in estimates on which the accruals are based. The amount accrued reflects the Company's assumptions about remediation requirements at the contaminated site, the nature of the remedy, the outcome of discussions with regulatory agencies and other potentially responsible parties at multi-party sites, and the number and financial viability of other potentially responsible parties. Changes in the estimates on which the accruals are based, unanticipated government enforcement action, or changes in health, safety, environmental, chemical control regulations, and testing requirements could result in higher costs. Pending and proposed U.S. Federal legislation and regulation increase the likelihood that the Company's manufacturing sites will in the future be impacted by regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and energy policy, which legislation and regulation, if enacted, may result in capital expenditures, increases in costs for raw materials and energy, limitations on raw material and energy source and supply choices, and other direct compliance costs.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In addition to the foregoing most significant known risk factors to the Company, there may be other factors, not currently known to the Company, which could, in the future, materially adversely affect the Company, its business, financial condition, or results of operations. The foregoing discussion of the most significant risk factors to the Company does not necessarily present them in order of importance. This disclosure, including that under "

CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2011, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed was accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during second quarter 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

General
From time to time, the Company and its operations are parties to, or targets of, lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including product liability, personal injury, asbestos, patent and intellectual property, commercial, contract, environmental, antitrust, health and safety, and employment matters, which are being handled and defended in the ordinary course of business. While the Company is unable to predict the outcome of these matters, it does not believe, based upon currently available facts, that the ultimate resolution of any such pending matters will have a material adverse effect on its overall financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, adverse developments could negatively impact earnings or cash flows in a particular future period.
Jefferson (Pennsylvania) Environmental Proceeding
In December 2005, Eastman Chemical Resins, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "ECR Subsidiary"), received a Notice of Violation ("NOV") from the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Region III Office ("EPA") alleging that the ECR Subsidiary's West Elizabeth, Jefferson Borough, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania manufacturing operation violated certain federally enforceable local air quality regulations and certain provisions in a number of air quality-related permits. In October 2006, the EPA referred the matter to the United States Department of Justice's Environmental Enforcement Section ("DOJ"). Company representatives have met with the EPA and DOJ on a number of occasions since the NOV's issuance and have determined that it is not reasonably likely that any civil penalty assessed by the EPA and DOJ will be less than $100,000. While the Company intends to vigorously defend against these allegations, this disclosure is made pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K, Item 103, Instruction 5.C., which requires disclosure of administrative proceedings commenced under environmental laws that involve governmental authorities as parties and potential monetary sanctions of at least $100,000. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of this proceeding will not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
