Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Item 7.01.  Regulation FD Disclosure
 
The Corning Incorporated press release furnished earlier today and dated July 25, 2012, regarding its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012, contained a non-material error in one sentence on the first page.  Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K/A inserts corrected wording that was inadvertently left out of the first sentence in the third bullet on the first page of the press release submitted earlier today.

That sentence in today’s earlier press release said:  “Display Technologies wholly owned business LCD glass volume declined by mid-single digits on a sequential and year-over-year basis.”  The corrected sentence in the amended press release attached to this Form 8-K/A says:  “Display Technologies wholly owned business LCD glass volume declined by mid-single digits on a sequential basis and increased by mid-single digits year over year.”

Item 9.01.  Financial Statements and Exhibits

(d)           Exhibit

99           Corrected Press Release dated July 25, 2012, issued by Corning Incorporated.
