ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ORGANIZATION OF INFORMATION Management's Discussion and Analysis provides a historical and prospective narrative on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The discussion includes the following sections: • Overview • Results of Operations • Operating Segments • Liquidity and Capital Resources • Critical Accounting Estimates • New Accounting Standards • Environment • Forward Looking Statements OVERVIEW Corning's results for the third quarter of 2009 reflected the continued effects of the global economic recession and the impact of a disruption at one of our manufacturing facilities offset by the positive impact of movements in foreign exchange rates. Although results for most of our operating segments were down when compared to last year, the rate of decline has slowed. In August, an earthquake halted production at one of the Company's liquid crystal display (LCD) glass manufacturing facilities in Japan. Production capacity in Taiwan and our ability to quickly resume some manufacturing in Japan helped to ease the impact of the disruption. In comparison to the second quarter of 2009, results improved in a number of segments. Continued strength in demand for the Company's LCD glass products contributed to the performance of the Display Technologies segment and government incentives drove improvements in the Environmental Technologies segment. Results in the Telecommunications segment continued to reflect the strength in demand for optical fiber and cable products in China. We also saw an increase in demand at Dow Corning Corporation, our equity affiliate which manufactures silicone products worldwide when compared to the previous quarter. In the third quarter of 2009, Corning acquired Axygen BioScience, Inc. (Axygen) for $410 million, net of $...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
