Libbey Inc. (NYSE Amex: LBY) announced today that sales for the second quarter of 2010 were $203.0 million, compared to $195.8 million in the second quarter of 2009, an improvement of 3.7 percent. Libbey reported net income of $9.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Excluding special items of $1.9 million in expense, Libbey had net income of $11.5 million (see Table 1) and diluted earnings per share of $0.56 for the second quarter of 2010. The special items in the second quarter of 2010 included a write-down of certain after-processing equipment within the Company's International segment.

Second Quarter Results

For the quarter-ended June 30, 2010, sales were $203.0 million, compared to $195.8 million in the year-ago quarter. Sales in the North American Glass segment were $146.4 million, an increase of 6.3 percent, compared to $137.7 million in the second quarter of 2009 (see Table 5). Primary contributors to the increased sales included a 29.2 percent increase in sales of Crisa products and a 13.5 percent increase in sales to U.S. and Canadian retail customers, compared to the prior-year quarter. Sales to U.S. and Canadian foodservice glassware customers decreased approximately 3.4 percent, as restaurant traffic continues to fluctuate from week to week. North American Other sales were $23.2 million, compared to $24.3 million in the prior-year quarter, as sales of Syracuse China products were off 22.1 percent, primarily due to the closure of the Syracuse China facility during the second quarter of 2009 and the decision to reduce the Syracuse China product offering. Sales of Traex products were lower by 3.1 percent versus the prior year. These decreases were partially offset by sales to World Tableware customers, which increased 5.2 percent during the quarter. International segment sales increased 6.8 percent (sales growth, excluding the impact of currency, was 13.4 percent during the quarter) to $36.9 million, compared to $34.5 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase in International sales was led by a 13.8 percent increase in sales to Royal Leerdam customers, an increase of 13.6 percent in sales at Libbey China and a 3.3 percent sales growth at Crisal in Portugal.

The Company reported income from operations of $23.2 million during the quarter, compared to income from operations of $11.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Income from operations, excluding special items (see Table 1), was $25.1 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $12.0 million during the second quarter of 2009. Factors contributing to the income from operations improvement (both including and excluding special items) were higher sales and higher capacity utilization, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Libbey reported earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $24.8 million, compared to income before interest and taxes of $14.2 million in the year-ago quarter. The improved EBIT was primarily a result of the increase in income from operations discussed above. EBIT, excluding special items (see Table 1), was $26.7 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $14.7 million during the second quarter of 2009. Adjusted EBIT (see Table 5) was $23.5 million for North American Glass, compared to adjusted EBIT of $11.9 million in the year-ago quarter. North American Other reported adjusted EBIT for the second quarter of 2010 of $4.7 million, compared to $3.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The International segment reported an adjusted EBIT loss of $1.5 million, compared to an adjusted EBIT loss of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2009.

Libbey reported that Adjusted EBITDA (see Table 3) was an all-time record for any quarter in Company history at $37.3 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $25.2 million in the second quarter of 2009.

Interest expense decreased by $5.7 million to $11.8 million, compared to $17.5 million in the year-ago period, as a result of lower debt levels and the impact of the debt refinancing completed in February 2010.

The effective tax rate was 26.7 percent for the second quarter of 2010, compared to 181.1 percent in the second quarter of 2009. The effective tax rate was influenced by valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory rates and changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions.

Libbey reported net income of $9.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. Excluding special items of $1.9 million, Libbey had net income of $11.5 million (see Table 1) and diluted earnings per share of $0.56 for the second quarter of 2010. The special items in the second quarter of 2010 included a write-down of certain after-processing equipment within the Company's International segment.

Six-Month Results

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, sales increased 6.6 percent to $376.9 million from $353.7 million in the year-ago period. North American Glass sales increased 8.3 percent to $267.0 million (see Table 5) from $246.5 million in the year-ago period. The increased sales were attributable to an approximate 30.5 percent increase in Crisa's sales and a solid 13.2 percent increase in sales to U.S. and Canadian retail customers. The Company reported an all-time record U.S. and Canadian retail sales performance during the first six months of 2010. Partially offsetting these increases in sales were lower sales to U.S. and Canadian foodservice customers, which decreased by 3.9 percent during the first six months of the year. North American Other sales decreased 6.6 percent as sales of Syracuse China decreased 28.0 percent and Traex sales were 4.3 percent lower than the first six months of 2009. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in World Tableware sales of 6.5 percent. International sales increased 15.4 percent as a result of 30.1 percent higher sales at Libbey China for the first half of 2010, compared to the first six months of 2009. In addition, sales of Royal Leerdam increased 18.4 percent and Crisal sales increased 9.3 percent. Excluding the currency impact, International sales increased approximately 16.3 percent.

The special items in the first six months of 2010 included a gain of $70.2 million, which represented the difference between the carrying value and the face value of the Payment in Kind (PIK) notes which were redeemed in February 2010. This gain was partially offset by the write-off of $13.4 million of unamortized fees and discounts on the refinanced floating rate senior notes and ABL credit facility and call premium payments.

The Company reported income from operations of $34.0 million during the first six months of 2010, compared to a loss from operations of $0.6 million in the year-ago period. Adjusted income from operations was $36.1 million for the first half of 2010 (see Table 2). Factors contributing to the increase in adjusted income from operations were higher sales, increased capacity utilization and the continued success of our cost reduction program. Increased selling, general and administrative expenses partially offset these increases.

EBIT was $91.7 million in the first six months of 2010, compared to $2.2 million in the first six months of 2009. Adjusted EBIT for the first six months of 2010, as detailed in Table 2, was $37.1 million compared to Adjusted EBIT of $7.5 million in the first six months of 2009. Adjusted EBIT for North American Glass was $31.5 million during the first half of 2010, compared to Adjusted EBIT of $5.8 million in the first six months of 2009. The increase is the result of increased sales and increased operating activity in U.S. and Mexican operations. North American Other reported Adjusted EBIT for the first half of 2010 of $8.3 million, compared to $5.0 million in the year-ago period, the increase being primarily a result of ongoing cost reductions. The International segment reported an Adjusted EBIT loss of $2.7 million, compared to an Adjusted EBIT loss of $3.3 million in the first six months of 2009. This improvement was primarily related to increased sales.

Libbey reported that Adjusted EBITDA, as detailed in Table 3, was $58.1 million in the first six months of 2010, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $29.1 million in the year-ago six-month period.

As a result of lower debt levels and the impact of the debt refinancing completed in February 2010, interest expense decreased $13.3 million compared to the first half of 2009.

The effective tax rate was 7.5 percent for the first six months of 2010, compared to 22.5 percent in the first half of 2009. The effective tax rate was influenced by valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory rates and changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions.

Libbey reported net income of $65.0 million for the first six months of 2010, or earnings of $3.21 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $25.2 million, or $1.70 per diluted share, in the first half of 2009. Excluding special items of $54.5 million, Libbey had net income of $10.4 million (see Table 2) and diluted earnings per share of $0.52 for the first half of 2010, compared to a net loss of $19.8 million, or diluted loss per share of $1.34 in the first half of 2009. The special items in the first six months of 2010 included a gain of $70.2 million, which represented the difference between the carrying value and the face value of the Payment in Kind (PIK) notes which were redeemed in February 2010. This gain was partially offset by the write-off of $13.4 million of unamortized fees and discounts on the refinanced floating rate senior notes and ABL credit facility and call premium payments. Also included was a write-down of certain after-processing equipment within the Company's International segment.

Working Capital and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2010, working capital, defined as inventories and accounts receivable less accounts payable, was $190.2 million, compared to $182.6 million at June 30, 2009. Working capital as a percentage of net sales was 24.6 percent at June 30, 2010, compared to 24.3 percent at June 30, 2009.

Adjusted free cash flow, as detailed in the attached Table 4, was $30.9 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $20.1 million in the second quarter of 2009. Adjusted free cash flow was $10.0 million in the first half of 2010, after adjusting for the payment of interest on the PIK notes, compared to a source of $29.6 million in the first six months of 2009.

Libbey reported that it had available capacity of $55.9 million under its Asset Backed Loan (ABL) credit facility as of June 30, 2010, with no loans currently outstanding. The Company also had cash on hand of $46.2 million at June 30, 2010.

Solid Improvement in North American Glass and International Segments

John F. Meier, chairman and chief executive officer said, "We were pleased with the solid sales improvements we saw in both the North American Glass and International segments in the second quarter. The higher sales, increased capacity utilization and the ongoing benefits of the cost reductions we have put in place resulted in a record Adjusted EBITDA of $37.3 million, which was a $12.1 million improvement in Adjusted EBITDA, when compared to the prior year second quarter."

This press release includes forward-looking statements as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements only reflect the Company's best assessment at this time and are indicated by words or phrases such as "goal," "expects," " believes," "will," "estimates," "anticipates," or similar phrases. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty and that actual results may differ materially from these statements. These forward-looking statements may be affected by the risks and uncertainties in the Company's business. This information is qualified in its entirety by cautionary statements and risk factor disclosures contained in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including the Company's report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 15, 2010. Important factors potentially affecting performance include but are not limited to increased competition from foreign suppliers from such statements, and that investors should not place undue reliance on such endeavoring to sell glass tableware in the United States and Mexico; the impact of lower duties for imported products; global economic conditions and the related impact on consumer spending levels; major slowdowns in the retail, travel or entertainment industries in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Western Europe and Asia, caused by terrorist attacks or otherwise; significant increases in per-unit costs for natural gas, electricity, corrugated packaging, and other purchased materials; higher indebtedness related to the Crisa acquisition; higher interest rates that increase the Company's borrowing costs or volatility in the financial markets that could constrain liquidity and credit availability; protracted work stoppages related to collective bargaining agreements; increases in expense associated with higher medical costs, increased pension expense associated with lower returns on pension investments and increased pension obligations; devaluations and other major currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar and the Euro that could reduce the cost competitiveness of the Company's products compared to foreign competition; the effect of high inflation in Mexico and exchange rate changes to the value of the Mexican peso and the earnings and cash flow of Crisa, expressed under U.S. GAAP; the inability to achieve savings and profit improvements at targeted levels in the Company's operations or within the intended time periods; and whether the Company completes any significant acquisition and whether such acquisitions can operate profitably. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release, and the Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this press release.

In accordance with the SEC’s Regulation G, tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 provide non-GAAP measures used in this earnings release and a reconciliation to the most closely
related Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (GAAP) measure. Libbey believes that providing supplemental non-GAAP financial information is useful to investors in
understanding Libbey's core business and trends. In addition, it is the basis on which Libbey's management assesses performance. Although Libbey believes that the
non-GAAP financial measures presented enhance investors' understanding of Libbey's business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be
considered an alternative to GAAP.
