Highlight of Business Operations:
Manufacturing cost of sales was $605.4 or 81.8% of sales in the third quarter of 2009, compared with $765.8, or 79.5% of sales in the third quarter of 2008. The 2.3% increase in manufacturing cost as a percent of sales, is primarily due to lower fixed cost absorption, higher restructuring expenses and unfavorable mix, partially offset by raw material price decreases. The lower fixed cost absorption relates to lower production volumes resulting from lower demand and our initiative to lower inventory levels. Manufacturing costs decreased $160.4, which includes $60.9 associated with the lower production volumes, $110.8 related to lower material costs, $21.1 related to reduced spending and cost savings initiatives and $11.2 due to changes in exchange rates partially offset by $27.2 of unfavorable fixed cost absorption as described above. The third quarter of 2009 includes a restructuring charge of $21.0 which is substantially comprised of a manufacturing cost savings initiative mostly related to the announced closure of our Specialty Chemical manufacturing operations in La Llagosta, Spain and Bogota, Colombia as well as an additional restructuring initiative launched in the third quarter of 2009 within our Engineered Materials segment. The third quarter of 2008 included a net restructuring charge of $1.5 primarily related to restructuring our Specialty Chemical segments.
