Libbey Inc. (NYSE: LBY) announced today that sales for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $208.1 million, compared to $186.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Libbey reported a net loss of $7.1 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009, compared to a net loss of $68.9 million, or $4.68 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter.
Fourth Quarter Results
For the quarter-ended December 31, 2009, sales were $208.1 million, compared to $186.6 million in the year-ago quarter. Sales of the North American Glass segment were $147.8 million, an increase of 15.4 percent, compared to $128.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 (see Table 5). Primary contributors to the increased sales included a 17.8 percent increase in sales to U.S. and Canadian retail customers, compared to the prior-year quarter, which represents an all-time record for sales to these customers in any quarter in the Company's history. Sales to U.S. and Canadian foodservice customers increased approximately 6.0 percent, sales to Crisa customers increased 15.2 percent and International sales increased 24.0 percent. North American Other sales were $20.9 million, compared to $26.0 million in the prior-year quarter, as shipments of Syracuse China products were off 48.5 percent, primarily due to the closure of the Syracuse China facility in April 2009 and the decision to reduce the Syracuse China product offering. Sales of Traex products were off 20.1 percent versus the prior year. Sales to World Tableware customers increased 0.5 percent during the quarter. International segment sales were $41.4 million, compared to $33.4 million in the year-ago quarter, as a result of 41.5 percent sales growth at Crisal in Portugal, 30.7 percent increase in sales at Libbey China and an 18.6 percent increase in sales to Royal Leerdam customers.
The Company reported income from operations of $19.3 million during the quarter, compared to a loss from operations of $48.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Income from operations, excluding special charges (see Table 1), was $20.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, compared to a loss from operations of $3.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2008. Factors contributing to the income from operations improvement 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 $18.0 million, compared to a loss before interest and taxes of $47.5 million in the year-ago quarter. The improved EBIT was mostly a result of the increase in income from operations discussed above and the $45.5 million of special charges (see Table 1) incurred in 2008. Normalized EBIT (see Table 5) was $14.2 million for North American Glass, compared to a loss of $0.9 million in the year-ago quarter. North American Other reported normalized EBIT for the fourth quarter of 2009 of $5.3 million, compared to $1.0 million in the year-ago quarter. The International segment reported a normalized loss before interest and taxes of $0.6 million, compared to a normalized loss before interest and taxes of $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Libbey reported that normalized EBITDA (see Table 3) was $29.1 million for the fourth quarter, compared to $8.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Interest expense decreased by $2.9 million to $14.5 million, compared to $17.4 million in the year-ago period, as the result of lower variable interest rates and the impact of the debt exchange completed in October 2009.
The effective tax rate was 307.7 percent for the quarter, compared to a negative 6.1 percent in the year-ago quarter. The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter was impacted by a reversal of a $5.3 million benefit from required intra-period tax allocations between loss from continuing operations and other comprehensive income in the U.S. The effective tax rate was also influenced by valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory rates, changes in tax laws and tax planning structures.
Libbey reported a net loss of $7.1 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009, compared to a net loss of $68.9 million, or $4.68 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. Excluding the special charges of $3.6 million, the net loss was $3.5 million (see Table 1) and diluted loss per share was $0.22 for the fourth quarter.
Twelve-Month Results
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, sales decreased 7.6 percent to $748.6 million from $810.2 million in 2008. John F. Meier, chairman and chief executive officer, commenting on 2009 said, "Our U.S. and Canadian retail shipments again led the way in 2009, as sales in this channel increased over seven percent compared to 2008. As a result of overall increases in demand in the second half of the year, primarily in North America, we also benefited from increased capacity utilization in all three North American glass factories during the second half of 2009. These factors, along with the continued success of our cost reduction program, allowed us to generate $90.1 million in normalized EBITDA for the full year."
North American Glass sales decreased 5.7 percent to $522.6 million from $554.1 million in 2008 (see Table 5). The decrease in sales was primarily attributable to a decline in sales to foodservice customers and to Crisa customers. Partially offsetting the decrease in sales was an increase of more than 7.0 percent in shipments to U.S. and Canadian retail glassware customers. North American Other sales decreased 21.6 percent to $87.0 million from $111.0 million in 2008, as shipments of Syracuse China products declined 37.2 percent, shipments of World Tableware products were off 11.3 percent and Traex sales were 24.2 percent lower than the prior year. International sales decreased 5.5 percent to $145.0 million as the result of increased sales at Libbey China of 15.6 percent, which was more than offset by approximately 6.0 percent lower sales at both Crisal and Royal Leerdam.
Libbey reported income from operations of $36.6 million during 2009, compared to a loss from operations of $5.5 million for 2008. Normalized income from operations, excluding special charges (see Table 2), was $43.4 million for the full year 2009, compared to $39.6 million in 2008. Primary contributors to the improvement in normalized income from operations were lower labor costs, lower natural gas and electricity costs and lower distribution expenses partially offset by lower sales.
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $40.7 million for 2009, compared to a loss before interest and taxes of $4.4 million in 2008. The improved EBIT was mostly the result of the increased income from operations. Normalized EBIT (see Table 2) for 2009 was $47.7 million, compared to $41.1 million for the full year 2008. Normalized EBIT (see Table 5) was $36.9 million for North American Glass, compared to $30.9 million in 2008. The North American Other segment had normalized EBIT for 2009 of $13.6 million, compared to $10.6 million in 2008. The International segment reported a normalized loss before interest and taxes of $2.9 million, compared to a normalized loss before interest and taxes of $0.3 million in 2008.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, normalized EBITDA (see Table 3) was $90.1 million, compared to $85.2 million during 2008.
Interest expense decreased $3.0 million compared to the year-ago period. Contributing to the decrease in interest expense were lower variable interest rates and the impact of the debt exchange completed in October 2009.
The effective tax rate was a negative 10.6 percent for 2009, compared to a negative 8.5 percent in 2008. The rate was influenced by valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings with differing statutory rates, changes in tax laws and tax planning structures and changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company recorded a net loss of $28.8 million, or $1.90 per diluted share for 2009, compared to a net loss of $80.5 million, or $5.48 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. The Company reported that its normalized net loss per diluted share for the full year 2009, as detailed in the attached Table 2, was $1.26 per diluted share. This compares to the normalized diluted loss per share of $2.40 in 2008.
Working Capital and Liquidity
As of December 31, 2009, working capital, defined as inventories and accounts receivable less accounts payable, declined by $39.3 million to $167.6 million from $206.9 million at December 31, 2008, as the Company made substantial progress in its efforts to reduce working capital. Working capital as a percentage of net sales was 22.4 percent in 2009, which compares to working capital as a percentage of 2008 net sales of 25.5 percent.
Free cash flow, as detailed in the attached Table 4, was a source of $31.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, compared to a use of $7.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. The primary contributors were lower capital expenditures, increased accounts payable and lower pension and postretirement medical payments. For the full year 2009, free cash flow as detailed in Table 4, was a source of $85.4 million, compared to a use of $46.6 million during 2008. Lower inventories, lower capital expenditures and improved operating performance all contributed.
Libbey reported that it had available capacity of $79.2 million under its Asset Backed Loan (ABL) credit facility as of December 31, 2009, and cash on hand of $55.1 million. This compares to availability of $44.6 million and cash on hand of $13.3 million at December 31, 2008.
Retail Market Share Continues to Increase
John F. Meier, chairman and chief executive officer said, "We were encouraged by the improvements we saw in the foodservice channel and by the record setting sales in the retail channel in the fourth quarter. We were also pleased that our retail sales in the U.S. and Canada increased over 7.0 percent for the full year 2009, as we increased our market share in the U.S. from 40.6 percent in 2008 to 42.1 percent in 2009."

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.

Restructuring charges are related to the closure of our Syracuse, New
York, manufacturing facility and our Mira Loma, California, distribution
center.
The pension settlement charges were triggered by excess lump sum
distributions taken by employees, which required us to record unrecognized
gains and losses in our pension plan accounts.
Impairment charges are related to goodwill and intangible assets at our
Crisal and Royal Leerdam locations and unutilized fixed assets at our
North American Glass segment.
Interest expense includes finance fees related to the PIK Note exchange
transaction.
