NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)


1.	GENERAL

Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Owens Corning,” “Company,” “we” and “our” in this report refer to Owens Corning, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries.

The Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report are unaudited, pursuant to certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and include, in the opinion of the Company, adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods indicated, which, however, are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for the full year. The December 31, 2013, balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S.). In connection with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in this report, reference is made to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes contained in the Company’s 2013 annual report on Form 10-K. Certain reclassifications have been made to the periods presented for 2013 to conform to the classifications used in the periods presented for 2014.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded additional net pre-tax income of $7 million ($5 million after tax expense) and net pre-tax expense of $1 million ($1 million after tax income), respectively, for the correction of errors related to prior periods. The effect was not material to the current or any previously issued financial statements and primarily resulted from the improper election of the normal purchases normal sales ("NPNS") derivative scope exception related to a fixed quantity energy contract in Brazil that was entered into on December 18, 2013. The contract contained an annual inflation index price adjustment that was not clearly and closely related to the underlying commodity being purchased and thus disqualified the contract from the NPNS exception. The total net unrealized fair market value gains related to the contract would have been recorded in Other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and the total historical impact was $(1) million, $(8) million, and $2 million for each of the three months ended December 31, 2013, March 31, 2014, and June 30, 2014, respectively.

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company determined that cash flows from operating activities and cash flows used in financing activities were each overstated by $5 million and $11 million for the periods ended September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013, respectively, due to the misclassification of non-cash debt fair value hedge adjustments. The effect of the misclassification was not material to any previously issued financial statements. The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 has been revised to reduce cash flows from operating activities and cash flows used in financing activities by $5 million. Cash flow information for the period ended December 31, 2013 will be revised the next time comparative Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are filed.

2.	SEGMENT INFORMATION (continued)

EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST AND TAXES

Earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) by segment consist of net sales less related costs and expenses and are presented on a basis that is used internally for evaluating segment performance. Certain items, such as general corporate expenses or income and certain other expense or income items, are excluded from the internal evaluation of segment performance. Accordingly, these items are not reflected in EBIT for our reportable segments and are included in the Corporate, Other and Eliminations category.

The following table summarizes EBIT by segment (in millions):

4.	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to, among other risks, the impact of changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates in the normal course of business. The Company’s risk management program is designed to manage the exposure and volatility arising from these risks, and utilizes derivative financial instruments to offset a portion of these risks. The Company uses derivative financial instruments only to the extent necessary to hedge identified business risks, and does not enter into such transactions for trading purposes.

The Company generally does not require collateral or other security with counterparties to these financial instruments and is therefore subject to credit risk in the event of nonperformance; however, the Company monitors credit risk and currently does not anticipate nonperformance by other parties. Contracts with counterparties generally contain right of offset provisions. These provisions effectively reduce the Company’s exposure to credit risk in situations where the Company has gain and loss positions outstanding with a single counterparty. It is the Company’s policy to offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets the amounts recognized for derivative instruments with any cash collateral arising from derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement. As of September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, the Company did not have any amounts on deposit with any of its counterparties, nor did any of its counterparties have any amounts on deposit with the Company.

The following table presents the fair value of derivatives and hedging instruments and the respective location on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):



		Fair Value at

The following table presents the impact and respective location of derivative activities on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings (in millions):



		Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,

Foreign currency exchange contract:
Amount of loss recognized in earnings (a)	Other (income) expenses, net	$	—		$	1	$	1		$	12


(a)	Losses related to foreign currency derivatives were substantially offset by net revaluation impacts on foreign denominated balance sheet exposures, which were also recorded in other (income) expenses, net.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses forward and swap contracts, which qualify as cash flow hedges, to manage forecasted exposure to changes in foreign currency rates and commodity prices. The effective portion of the change in the fair value of cash flow hedges is deferred in accumulated OCI and is subsequently recognized in Cost of Sales on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings for commodity hedges, when the hedged item impacts earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities designated as hedging instruments are shown in Other within operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Any portion of the change in fair value of derivatives designated as hedging instruments that is determined to be ineffective is recorded in Other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

The Company currently has natural gas derivatives designated as hedging instruments that mature within 15 months. The Company’s policy for natural gas exposures is to hedge up to 75% of its total forecasted exposures for the next two months, up to 50% of its total forecasted exposures for the following four months, and lesser amounts for the remaining periods. Based on market conditions, approved variation from the standard policy may occur. The Company performs an analysis for effectiveness of its derivatives designated as hedging instruments at the end of each quarter based on the terms of the contract and the underlying item being hedged.

As of September 30, 2014, $1 million of losses included in accumulated OCI on the Consolidated Balance Sheets relate to contracts that are expected to impact earnings during the next 12 months. Transactions and events that are expected to occur over the next 12 months that will necessitate recognizing these deferred amounts include the recognition of the hedged item through earnings.

4. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

Fair Value Hedges

The Company manages its interest rate exposure by balancing the mixture of its fixed and variable rate instruments through interest rate swaps. The swaps are carried at fair value and recorded as other assets or liabilities, with the offset to long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of these swaps and that of the related debt are recorded in Interest expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Other Derivatives

The Company uses forward currency exchange contracts to manage existing exposures to foreign exchange risk related to assets and liabilities recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses resulting from the changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded in Other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company currently has fixed quantity energy contracts in Brazil that contain an annual inflation index price adjustment that is not clearly and closely related to the underlying commodity being purchased and thus are accounted for as trading derivatives. Gains and losses resulting from the changes in fair value of these contracts are recorded in Other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

5. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)

The changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill by segment are as follows (in millions):



	Composites		Building Materials		Total
Balance as of December 31, 2013	$	57	$	1,109	$	1,166
Acquisitions (see Note 7)	—		2		2
Balance as of September 30, 2014	$	57	$	1,111	$	1,168

Other Intangible Assets

The Company expects the ongoing amortization expense for amortizable intangible assets to be approximately $22 million in each of the next five fiscal years. The Company’s future cash flows are not materially impacted by its ability to extend or renew agreements related to our amortizable intangible assets.

Goodwill

The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment during the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently should circumstances change or events occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. No testing was deemed necessary in the third quarter of 2014.


6.	PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment consist of the following (in millions):



	September 30, 2014			December 31, 2013

	4,588			4,547
Accumulated depreciation	(1,696		)	(1,615		)
Property, plant and equipment, net	$	2,892		$	2,932

Machinery and equipment includes certain precious metals used in our production tooling, which comprise approximately 17 percent of total machinery and equipment as of September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013. Precious metals used in our production tooling are depleted as they are consumed during the production process, which typically represents an annual expense of less than 3 percent of the outstanding carrying value.

11.	COST REDUCTION ACTIONS

2014 Cost Reduction Actions

We took actions in 2014 to reduce costs in our Composites segment. In the third quarter of 2014, these actions related to our decision to not rebuild two sub-scale high cost furnaces that will result in closing a facility in Japan and optimizing a facility in Canada. As a result of these actions, we recognized $16 million in severance charges, $3 million in contract termination charges, and $2 million in other related charges.

In the first quarter of 2014, these actions related to global workforce reductions and the termination of a contract with a utility services provider. In conjunction with these actions, the Company recorded $14 million in charges related to cost reduction actions for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, of which $11 million is related to severance and $3 million is related to contract termination charges. Both items were recorded in the first quarter of 2014 and have been reported in charges related to cost reduction actions on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

The following table summarizes the status of the unpaid accrued liabilities from the Company’s 2014 cost reduction actions (in millions):

Senior Notes

The Company issued $600 million of 2022 senior notes on October 17, 2012. The proceeds of these notes were used to refinance $250 million of our 2016 senior notes, $100 million of our 2019 senior notes and pay down our Senior Revolving Credit Facility. Interest on the notes is payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 each year, beginning on June 15, 2013.

The Company issued $350 million of 2019 senior notes on June 3, 2009. On October 31, 2006, we issued $650 million of 2016 senior notes and $540 million of 2036 senior notes. The proceeds of these notes were used to pay certain unsecured and administrative claims, finance general working capital needs and for general corporate purposes.

Collectively, the notes above are referred to as the “Senior Notes." The Senior Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and rank pari passu with all existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company.

The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Company’s current and future domestic subsidiaries that are a borrower or guarantor under the Company’s Credit Agreement (as defined below). The guarantees are unsecured and rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of the guarantors. The guarantees are effectively subordinated to existing and future secured debt of the guarantors to the extent of the assets securing that indebtedness.

The Company has the option to redeem all or part of the Senior Notes at any time at a “make whole” redemption price. The Company is subject to certain covenants in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes that it believes are usual and customary. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2014.

In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company terminated interest rate swaps designated to hedge a portion of the 6.5 percent senior notes due 2016. The swaps were carried at fair value and recorded as other assets or liabilities, with a fair value adjustment to long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value adjustment to debt will be amortized through 2016 as a reduction to interest expense in conjunction with the maturity date of the notes.

On June 28, 2013, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements effective July 1, 2013 to manage its interest rate exposure by swapping $100 million of fixed rate to variable rate exposure designated against our 4.2 percent senior notes due 2022. The swaps are carried at fair value and recorded as other assets or liabilities, with a fair value adjustment to long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

12.	DEBT (continued)

Senior Credit Facility

In November 2013, the Company amended the credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) for the $800 million multi-currency senior revolving credit facility (the “Senior Revolving Credit Facility”) to extend the maturity to November 2018 and reduce the letters of credit sublimit to $100 million. The Senior Revolving Credit Facility includes both borrowings and letters of credit. Borrowings under the Senior Revolving Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes and working capital. The Company has the discretion to borrow under multiple options, which provide for varying terms and interest rates including the United States prime rate or LIBOR plus a spread.

The Senior Revolving Credit Facility contains various covenants, including a maximum allowed leverage ratio and a minimum required interest expense coverage ratio that the Company believes are usual and customary for a senior unsecured credit agreement. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2014.

The Company had $4 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Senior Revolving Credit Facility at September 30, 2014.

Receivables Securitization Facility

Included in long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are amounts outstanding under a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the “RPA”) that are accounted for as secured borrowings in accordance with ASC 860, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing." Owens Corning Sales, LLC and Owens Corning Receivables LLC, each a subsidiary of the Company, have a $250 million RPA with certain financial institutions. The RPA was amended in the third quarter of 2013 to extend maturity to July 2016 and reduce the size of the facility to $200 million during the months of November, December, and January each year. At September 30, 2014 the Company utilized the full amount permitted under the terms of the RPA. The Company had $37 million of letters of credit outstanding under the RPA at September 30, 2014.

The RPA contains various covenants, including a maximum allowed leverage ratio and a minimum required interest expense coverage ratio that the Company believes are usual and customary for a securitization facility. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2014.

Owens Corning Receivables LLC’s sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital contributions of trade receivables and related rights from Owens Corning Sales, LLC and the subsequent retransfer of or granting of a security interest in such trade receivables and related rights to certain purchasers who are party to the RPA. Owens Corning Receivables LLC is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled, upon its liquidation, to be satisfied out of Owens Corning Receivables LLC’s assets prior to any assets or value in Owens Corning Receivables LLC becoming available to Owens Corning Receivables LLC’s equity holders. The assets of Owens Corning Receivables LLC are not available to pay creditors of the Company or any other affiliates of the Company or Owens Corning Sales, LLC.

Short-Term Debt

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, short-term borrowings were $22 million and $1 million, respectively. The short-term borrowings for both periods consisted of various operating lines of credit and working capital facilities. The weighted average interest rate on short-term borrowings was approximately 3.7 percent for September 30, 2014, and 2.2 percent for December 31, 2013.


13.	PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

Pension Plans

The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans. Under the plans, pension benefits are based on an employee’s years of service and, for certain categories of employees, qualifying compensation. Company contributions to these pension plans are determined by an independent actuary to meet or exceed minimum funding requirements. In our Non-U.S. plans, the unrecognized cost of any retroactive amendments and actuarial gains and losses are amortized over the average future service period of plan participants expected to receive benefits. In our U.S. plans, the unrecognized cost of any retroactive amendments and actuarial gains and losses are amortized over the average remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants as substantially all of the plan participants are inactive.

14. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to employment, product liability and other matters (collectively, “Proceedings”). The Company regularly reviews the status of such Proceedings with legal counsel. Liabilities for such Proceedings are recorded when it is probable that the liability has been incurred and when the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities are adjusted when additional information becomes available. Management believes that the amount of any reasonably possible losses in excess of any amounts accrued, if any, with respect to such Proceedings or any other known claim, including the matters described below under the caption Environmental Matters (the “Environmental Matters”) will not be material to the Company’s financial statements. Management believes that the ultimate disposition of the Proceedings and the Environmental Matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial condition taken as a whole.

Environmental Matters

We have been deemed by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to be a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) with respect to certain sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act. We have also been deemed a PRP under similar state or local laws and in other instances other PRPs have brought suits against us as a PRP for contribution under such federal, state, or local laws. At September 30, 2014, we had environmental remediation liabilities as a PRP at 21 sites where we have a continuing legal obligation to either complete remedial actions or contribute to the completion of remedial actions as part of a group of PRPs. For these sites we estimate a reserve to reflect environmental liabilities that have been asserted or are probable of assertion, in which liabilities are probable and reasonably estimable. At September 30, 2014, our reserve for such liabilities was $4 million.

Kearny, New Jersey Manufacturing Facility

During the week of October 29, 2012, the Company experienced a flood at its Kearny, New Jersey manufacturing facility as a result of Hurricane Sandy. Our Roofing facility returned to full operating capacity in the third quarter of 2013 and we settled our insurance claims in December of 2013. For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, the Company incurred an additional $0 million and $6 million, respectively, in losses related to clean-up activities. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, $5 million has been reported in Other (income) expenses, net and $1 million has been reported in Cost of Sales on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The Company does not anticipate any additional charges to be incurred.

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred $2 million (net of insurance proceeds) in losses related to clean up activities and business interruption, of which $4 million of losses have been reported in Cost of Sales, partially offset by $2 million net gain reported in Other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred $16 million (net of insurance proceeds) in losses related to clean up activities and business interruption, of which $26 million of losses have been reported in Cost of Sales, partially offset by a $10 million net gain reported in Other (income) expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

15. STOCK COMPENSATION

2013 Stock Plan

On April 18, 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved the Owens Corning 2013 Stock Plan (the “2013 Stock Plan”) which replaced the 2010 Stock Plan. The 2013 Stock Plan authorizes grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, bonus stock awards and performance stock awards. Under the 2013 Stock Plan, 1.5 million shares of common stock may be granted in addition to the shares of Company common stock that rolled over from the 2010 Stock Plan as of April 18, 2013. Such shares of common stock include shares that were available but not granted, or which were granted but were not issued or delivered due to expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such awards. There will be no future grants made under the 2010 Stock Plan. At September 30, 2014, the number of shares remaining available under the 2013 Stock Plan for all stock awards was 2.4 million.

Stock Options

The Company has granted stock options under its stockholder approved stock plans. The Company calculates a weighted-average grant-date fair value using a Black-Scholes valuation model for options granted. Compensation expense for options is measured based on the fair market value of the option on the date of grant, and is recognized on a straight-line basis over a four year vesting period. In general, the exercise price of each option awarded was equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and an option’s maximum term is 10 years. The volatility assumption was based on a benchmark study of our peers prior to 2014. Starting with the options granted in 2014 the volatility was based on the company’s historic volatility.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, 374,500 stock options were granted with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $19.05. Assumptions used in the Company’s Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the grant date fair value were expected volatility of 50.85%, expected dividends of $0, expected term of 6.25 years and a risk-free interest rate of 1.9%.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized expense of $1 million and $4 million respectively, related to the Company’s stock options. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized expense of $1 million and $4 million respectively, related to the Company’s stock options. As of September 30, 2014, there was $10 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.71 years. The total aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $10 million and $25 million.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014:



	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014
	Number of Options		Weighted- Average Exercise Price
Beginning Balance	2,748,720		$	29.55

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units

The Company has granted restricted stock awards and restricted stock units (collectively referred to as “restricted stock”) under its stockholder approved stock plans. Compensation expense for restricted stock is measured based on the market price of the stock at date of grant and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the four-year vesting period. Stock restrictions are subject to alternate vesting plans for death, disability, approved early retirement and involuntary termination, over various periods ending in 2019.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized expense of $4 million and $13 million respectively, related to the Company’s restricted stock. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized expense of $4 million and $12 million respectively, related to the Company’s restricted stock. As of September 30, 2014, there was $28 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.65 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $14 million and $16 million, respectively.

A summary of the status of the Company’s plans that had restricted stock issued as of September 30, 2014, and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, are presented below:

Forfeited	(50,515	)	37.04
Ending Balance	1,741,608		$	33.79

Performance Stock Awards and Performance Stock Units

The Company has granted performance stock awards and performance stock units (collectively referred to as “PSUs”) as a part of its long-term incentive plan. Outstanding grants issued in 2013 forward will be fully settled in stock and outstanding grants issued in 2012 will be settled 50 percent in stock and 50 percent in cash. The amount of the stock and/or cash ultimately distributed is contingent on meeting various company or stockholder return goals.

Compensation expense for PSUs settled in stock is measured based on the grant date fair value and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Compensation expense for PSUs settled in cash is measured based on the fair value at the end of each quarter and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Vesting will be accelerated in the case of death or disability, and awards earned will be paid at the end of the three-year period.

In the first nine months of 2014, the Company granted PSUs that vest after a three-year period based on the Company’s total stockholder return relative to the performance of the companies in the S&P 500 Index for the respective three-year period. The

amount of stock distributed will vary from 0 percent to 200 percent of PSUs awarded depending on the relative stockholder return performance.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized expense of $1 and $4 million, respectively related to the Company’s PSUs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized a gain of $1 million and an expense of $5 million, respectively, related to PSUs.

2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On April 18, 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved the Owens Corning Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The ESPP is a tax-qualified plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purchase price of shares purchased under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of shares of Owens Corning common stock at the beginning or ending of the offering period, which is a six-month period ending on May 31 and November 30 of each year. There are 2 million shares available for purchase under the ESPP as of its approval date. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company had expense of $0.4 million and $1 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had expense of $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2014, there was less than $1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the ESPP.

16. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table summarizes the number of shares outstanding as well as our basic and diluted earnings per-share (in millions, except per share amounts):



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2014		2013		2014		2013
Net earnings attributable to Owens Corning	$	52	$	51	$	193	$	122
Weighted-average number of shares outstanding used for basic earnings per share	117.4		118.0		117.5		118.4
Non-vested restricted and performance shares	0.4		0.4		0.4		0.4
Options to purchase common stock	0.3		0.4		0.4		0.5
Weighted-average number of shares outstanding and common equivalent shares used for diluted earnings per share	118.1		118.8		118.3		119.3
Earnings per common share attributable to Owens Corning common stockholders:
Basic	$	0.44	$	0.43	$	1.64	$	1.03
Diluted	$	0.44	$	0.43	$	1.63	$	1.02

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing earnings attributable to Owens Corning by the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the period. Outstanding shares consist of issued shares less treasury stock.

On April 25, 2012, the Company announced a new share buy-back program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to 10 million shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock (the “2012 Repurchase Program”). The 2012 Repurchase Program is in addition to the share buy-back program announced August 4, 2010 (the “2010 Repurchase Program” and collectively with the 2012 Repurchase Program, the “Repurchase Programs”). The Repurchase Programs authorize the Company to repurchase shares through the open market, in privately negotiated or other transactions. The actual number of shares repurchased will depend on timing, market conditions and other factors and will be at the Company’s discretion. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, no shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Programs. As of September 30, 2014, 7.7 million shares remain available for repurchase under the authorized programs.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the number of shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share did not include 1.3 million and 1.0 million, respectively, of options to purchase common stock due to their anti-dilutive effect.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the number of shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share did not include 0.2 million non-vested Restricted and Performance shares, 1.0 million and 0.7 million of options to purchase common stock, respectively, 17.5 million common equivalent shares from Series A Warrants or 7.8 million common equivalent shares from Series B Warrants due to their anti-dilutive effect.

17. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Items Measured at Fair Value

The Company classifies and discloses assets and liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

17. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (continued)

The following table summarizes the fair values, and levels within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, for assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2014 (in millions):



	Total Measured at Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Liabilities:
Derivative liabilities	$	4	$	—	$	4	$	—
Total liabilities	$	4	$	—	$	4	$	—

Cash equivalents and term deposits are included in cash and cash equivalents on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company measures the value of its natural gas hedge contracts, electricity contracts and foreign currency forward contracts using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the Company’s natural gas hedges and electricity contracts is determined by a mark to market valuation based on forward curves using observable market prices and the fair value of its foreign currency forward contracts is determined using observable market transactions in over-the-counter markets.

Contingent consideration

In connection with our third quarter 2014 acquisition of Transaco discussed in Note 7, we recorded contingent consideration pertaining to amounts payable to the former owners related to a put/call option that is to be determined based on a multiple of 2016 EBITDA that contains a cap of $7 million and a floor of $4 million. The valuation of contingent consideration uses assumptions we believe would be made by a market participant and has been based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of our contingent consideration includes our internal forecast of business performance.

17. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (continued)

Items Disclosed at Fair Value

Assets held for sale

At September 30, 2014 the Company had nonfinancial assets, principally property, plant and equipment, with a net book value of $11 million which were accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets were tested for impairment and the Company recognized losses of $3 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily in connection with the final closing of our Alcala, Spain facility as announced in our 2012 Composites cost reduction actions. The Company has determined that the fair value measurements of these nonfinancial assets are level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of property, plant and equipment uses assumptions we believe would be made by a market participant and has been based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of property, plant and equipment includes recent market transactions for similar assets.

Long-term notes receivable

The fair value of the Company’s long-term notes receivable has been calculated using the expected future cash flows discounted at market interest rates. The Company believes that the carrying amounts reasonably approximate the fair values of long-term notes receivable. Long-term notes receivable were $1 million and $6 million as of September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Long-term debt

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt has been calculated based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues, or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s 6.50 percent senior notes due 2016 were trading at approximately 109 percent of par value, the 7.00 percent senior notes due 2036 were trading at approximately 121 percent of par value, the 9.00 percent senior notes due 2019 were trading at approximately 123 percent of par value, and the 4.20 percent senior notes due 2022 were trading at approximately 101 percent of par value. The Company determined that the book value of the remaining long-term debt instruments approximates market value. This approach, using Level 1 inputs and utilizing indicative market rates for a new debt issuance, approximated the fair value of the remaining long-term debt at $372 million.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s 6.50 percent senior notes due 2016 were trading at approximately 111 percent of par value, the 7.00 percent senior notes due 2036 were trading at approximately 107 percent of par value, the 9.00 percent senior notes due 2019 were trading at approximately 125 percent of par value, and the 4.20 percent senior notes due 2022 were trading at approximately 96 percent of par value. The Company determined that the book value of the remaining long-term debt instruments approximates market value. This approach, using Level 1 inputs and utilizing indicative market rates for a new debt issuance, approximated the fair value of the remaining long-term debt at $224 million.

18. INCOME TAXES

Income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, was an expense of $27 million and $9 million, respectively. For the third quarter and year-to-date 2014, the Company’s effective tax rate was 34 percent and 4 percent, respectively. For the third quarter, the difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory rate of 35 percent is primarily attributable to the tax accounting treatment related to various locations which are currently in a loss position. For the year-to-date period, the difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory rate of 35 percent is primarily attributable to the resolution of an uncertain tax position upon receiving final notification from the IRS that it had completed its audit examination for the taxable years 2008 through 2010 and the reversal of a valuation allowance recorded in prior years against certain European net deferred tax assets which cumulatively totaled $78 million. The remaining differences relate to other discrete adjustments in the quarter and the accounting treatment of various locations which are currently in a loss position in the third quarter 2014.

Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $26 million and $71 million, respectively. For the third quarter and year-to-date 2013, the Company’s effective tax rate was 34 percent and 37 percent, respectively. For both periods, the difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory rate of 35 percent is primarily attributable to various tax planning initiatives and the tax accounting treatment related to various locations which are currently in a loss position.

19. CHANGES IN ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The following table summarizes the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 (in millions):

20. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2013-11 Income Taxes (Topic 740): "Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists." The new guidance is effective for fiscal year and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The update does not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and we have prospectively adopted the standard in fiscal year 2014.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." ASU No. 2014-08 changes the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company has early adopted this update in the second quarter of 2014.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, “Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” ASU No. 2013-05 clarifies when companies should release the cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) into net income when a parent either sells a part of or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. ASU No. 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and we have prospectively adopted the standard in fiscal year 2014.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 outlines a new, single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. This new revenue recognition model provides a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized. The new model will require revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Accordingly, the standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017.

21. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements present the financial information required with respect to those entities which guarantee certain of the Company’s debt. The Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements are presented on the equity method. Under this method, the investments in subsidiaries are recorded at cost and adjusted for the Company’s share of the subsidiaries’ cumulative results of operations, capital contributions, distributions and other equity changes. The principal elimination entries eliminate investment in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.

Guarantor and Nonguarantor Financial Statements

The Senior Notes and the Senior Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed, fully, unconditionally and jointly and severally, by each of Owens Corning’s current and future 100% owned material domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower or a guarantor under Owens Corning’s Credit Agreement, which permits changes to the named guarantors in certain situations (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The remaining subsidiaries have not guaranteed the Senior Notes and the Senior Revolving Credit Facility (collectively, the “Nonguarantor Subsidiaries”).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to help investors understand Owens Corning, our operations and our present business environment. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes thereto contained in this report. Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Owens Corning,” “Company,” “we” and “our” in this report refer to Owens Corning and its subsidiaries.

GENERAL

Owens Corning is a leading global producer of glass fiber reinforcements and other materials for composites and of residential and commercial building materials. The Company’s business operations fall within two reportable segments, Composites and Building Materials. Composites includes our Reinforcements and Downstream businesses. Building Materials includes our Insulation and Roofing businesses. Through these lines of business, we manufacture and sell products worldwide. We maintain leading market positions in many of our major product categories.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

We reported net earnings of $52 million and $107 million in earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) for the third quarter 2014. We generated $132 million in adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (“Adjusted EBIT”) for the third quarter 2014. Third quarter 2014 EBIT in our Building Materials segment decreased by $13 million and EBIT in our Composites segment increased by $11 million compared to the same period in 2013. See below for further information regarding EBIT and Adjusted EBIT, including the reconciliation to net earnings attributable to Owens Corning.

In the third quarter 2014, we have adjusted $25 million of losses out of reported EBIT to arrive at adjusted EBIT. The Company recorded $21 million of charges related to cost reduction actions and related items in our Composites business associated with the decision to not rebuild two sub-scale high cost furnaces that will result in closing a facility in Japan and optimizing a facility in Canada. We also have adjusted out $4 million of losses related to the impairment of held for sale assets.

In our Composites segment, EBIT in the third quarter 2014 was $32 million compared to $21 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily driven by higher selling prices.

In our Building Materials segment, EBIT in the third quarter 2014 was $101 million, compared to $114 million in the same period in 2013. In our Roofing business, EBIT decreased $38 million due primarily to lower selling prices. Our Insulation business increased EBIT $25 million compared to the same period in 2013 primarily on improved manufacturing performance and higher selling prices.

We maintain a strong balance sheet with ample liquidity. We have access to an $800 million senior revolving credit facility with a November 2018 maturity date and a $250 million receivables securitization facility with a July 2016 maturity date. We have no significant debt maturities before 2016.

The Consolidated Results discussion below provides a summary of our results and the trends affecting our business, and should be read in conjunction with the more detailed Segment Results discussion that follows.

NET SALES

Third quarter and year-to-date net sales increased $62 million and decreased $2 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2013. For the third quarter, the increase in net sales was mainly due to higher sales volumes and higher selling prices in our Composites and Insulation businesses. For the year-to-date comparison, the decrease was primarily due to higher selling prices and higher sales volumes in our Composites and Insulation businesses being more than offset by lower sales volumes in our Roofing business.

GROSS MARGIN

In the third quarter 2014, gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased one percentage point compared to the third quarter of 2013 primarily due to lower sales volumes and lower selling prices in our Roofing business. For year-to-date 2014, gross margin was flat compared to the same period of 2013 as higher contribution margins in our Composites and Insulation businesses and the favorable impact of lower margin related adjusting items were offset by the impacts of lower sales volumes and lower selling prices in our Roofing business. Year-to-date 2014 gross margin included $1 million of charges for final clean up and repair costs related to Hurricane Sandy. For the third quarter and year-to-date 2013 gross margin included $9 million and $41 million, respectively of charges related to Hurricane Sandy and our 2012 restructuring actions.

CHARGES RELATED TO COST REDUCTION ACTIONS

In the third quarter of 2014, we took actions to reduce high cost assets in our global Composites network through the decision to close a facility in Japan and optimize a facility in Canada. As a result of these actions, we recognized $16 million in severance charges and $3 million in contract termination charges in the third quarter of 2014. For the year-to-date 2014, in addition to the charges taken in the third quarter, we recognized $11 million in severance charges and $3 million in contract termination charges to reduce costs throughout our global Composites network. These charges were partially offset by a $2 million decrease in severance related to the divestiture of our Hangzhou, China Composites facility.

In the third quarter of 2013, we recognized $6 million in charges related to cost reduction actions as a result of entering into an agreement to sell our Composites glass reinforcements facility in Hangzhou, China that closed in the first quarter of 2014. The year-to-date 2013, also includes $2 million in charges related to cost reduction actions as a result of actions taken to improve the competitive position of our global Composites manufacturing network through the closure or optimization of certain facilities, with our most significant actions taking place in France, Spain and Italy.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST AND TAXES

EBIT increased by $1 million for the third quarter 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. Third quarter EBIT in our Building Materials segment decreased by $13 million and third quarter EBIT in our Composites segment increased by $11 million compared to the same period in 2013. Corporate EBIT losses for the third quarter decreased by $3 million.

For year-to-date 2014, EBIT increased by $7 million compared to the same period in 2013. Year-to-date EBIT in our Building Materials segment decreased by $70 million and year-to-date EBIT in our Composites segment increased by $34 million compared to the same period in 2013. Corporate EBIT losses for year-to-date 2014 decreased by $43 million, due primarily to the gain on sale of our Hangzhou, China Composites glass reinforcements facility.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

Year-to-date 2014 interest expense was in line with the same period in 2013.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

We estimate that the effective tax rate on adjusted earnings for the full year 2014 will be in the range of 28 to 30 percent excluding the resolution of a significant uncertain tax position and the reversal of a valuation allowance recorded in prior years against certain European net deferred tax assets. The difference between the effective tax rate range of 28 to 30 percent and the statutory rate of 35 percent is primarily attributable to lower foreign tax rates and various tax planning initiatives.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (“Adjusted EBIT”)

Adjusted EBIT excludes certain items that management does not allocate to our segment results because it believes they are not a result of the Company’s current operations. Adjusted EBIT is used internally by the Company for various purposes, including reporting results of operations to the Board of Directors of the Company, analysis of performance and related employee compensation measures. Although management believes that these adjustments result in a measure that provides a useful representation of our operational performance, the adjusted measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings attributable to Owens Corning as prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Adjusting items are shown in the table below (in millions):

Segment Results

EBIT by segment consists of net sales less related costs and expenses and are presented on a basis that is used internally for evaluating segment performance. Certain items, such as general corporate expenses or income and certain other expense or income items, are excluded from the internal evaluation of segment performance. Accordingly, these items are not reflected in EBIT for our reportable segments and are included in the Corporate, Other and Eliminations category, which is presented following the discussion of our reportable segments.

The table below provides a summary of net sales, EBIT and depreciation and amortization expense for the Composites segment (in millions)



	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

Net sales	$	489		$	453		$	1,471		$	1,384

EBIT as a % of net sales	7		%	5		%	7		%	4		%
Depreciation and amortization expense	$	31		$	33		$	99		$	99

NET SALES

Third quarter and year-to-date sales in our Composites business increased $36 million and $87 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2013. For the third quarter, approximately 5 percent higher sales volumes was the largest contributor to the increase in net sales. The remaining increase was driven equally by higher selling prices and favorable customer mix. For the first nine months of 2014, approximately 3 percent higher sales volumes were the largest contributor to the increase in net sales. Selling prices were $24 million higher year over year with favorable customer mix driving the remaining increase.

EBIT

In our Composites business, EBIT was $11 million higher in the third quarter 2014 and $34 million higher for year-to-date 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013. For the quarter, the increase in EBIT was driven by higher selling prices and increased sales volumes. Improved operating performance and favorable customer mix were offset by higher furnace-rebuild related costs, labor cost inflation and raw material inflation. For the year-to-date comparison, higher selling prices drove the majority of the improvement. Improved operating performance and favorable customer mix were largely offset by labor cost inflation, raw material inflation and higher furnace-rebuild related costs. The remaining increase in EBIT was primarily driven by higher sales volumes.

OUTLOOK

Global glass reinforcements market demand has historically grown on average with global industrial production and we believe this relationship will continue. For fiscal year 2014, we expect moderate global industrial production growth.

NET SALES

Net sales in our Building Materials segment were $26 million higher in the third quarter 2014 and $98 million lower for year-to-date 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013. For the quarter, net sales increased primarily due to higher sales volumes in our Insulation business. For the year-to-date comparison, net sales decreased due primarily to lower sales volumes in our Roofing business.

In our Roofing business, net sales in the third quarter of 2014 were $3 million higher than the third quarter of 2013 and year-to-date net sales were $178 million lower compared to the same period in 2013. For the quarter, seven percent higher sales volumes and favorable product mix were offset by $37 million in lower selling prices. For the year-to-date comparison, the decline was primarily driven by approximately 9 percent lower sales volumes. Lower selling prices of $51 million were partially offset by favorable product mix.

In our Insulation business, net sales were $23 million higher in the third quarter 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. For the quarter comparison, higher selling prices contributed $9 million with the remaining increase being driven by higher sales volumes. Year-to-date sales were $80 million higher compared to the same period in 2013 due to higher selling prices of $48 million with the remaining increase being driven about equally by higher sales volumes and increased sales related to our acquisition of Thermafiber Inc.

EBIT

EBIT for our Building Materials segment in the third quarter and year-to date 2014 decreased $13 million and $70 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2013.

In our Roofing business, EBIT decreased $38 million and $131 million in the third quarter and year-to-date 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013, respectively. For the quarter, the decrease in EBIT was driven by lower selling prices. EBIT from higher sales volumes and favorable product mix were offset by production curtailments and inflation, primarily asphalt. For the year-to-date comparison, lower sales volumes and lower selling prices contributed about equally to the decline in EBIT. The remainder of the decline was primarily driven by inflation, most significantly asphalt, and third quarter production curtailments.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

In our Insulation business, EBIT increased by $25 million and $61 million in the third quarter and year-to-date 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013, respectively. For the third quarter, favorable manufacturing performance contributed $15 million as higher selling prices were offset by energy and raw materials inflation. The remaining increase was driven about equally by higher sales volumes and lower selling, general and administrative expenses. For the year-to-date comparison, the increase in EBIT was driven primarily by higher selling prices. Energy and raw materials inflation was offset by favorable manufacturing performance, with the remaining increase in EBIT being driven about equally by higher sales volumes and lower selling, general and administrative expenses.

OUTLOOK

During the third quarter of 2014, the average Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate (“SAAR”) of United States housing starts was approximately 1 million starts, up from an average of approximately 882 thousand starts in the third quarter of 2013. While the information on United States housing starts has been trending positively over the past couple of years, the timing and pace of recovery of the United States housing market remains uncertain.

In our roofing business, we expect the factors that have driven strong margins in recent years will continue to deliver profitability. Our weaker than expected year-to-date volumes have impacted our financial outlook. Other uncertainties that may impact our Roofing margins include market demand, competitive pricing pressure and the cost and availability of raw materials, particularly asphalt.

The Company expects our Insulation business to continue to benefit from an overall strengthening of the U.S. housing market, improved pricing, and higher capacity utilization. We believe the geographic, product and channel mix of our portfolio may continue to moderate the impact of any demand-driven variability associated with United States new construction.

EBIT

In Corporate, Other and Eliminations, EBIT losses for the third quarter and year-to-date 2014 were $26 million and $70 million, respectively. For the third quarter, we recorded $21 million of charges related to cost reduction actions and related items in our Composites business associated with the decision to not rebuild two sub-scale high cost furnaces that will result in closing a facility in Japan and optimizing a facility in Canada. We also recorded a $3 million impairment charge on our held for sale Composites facility in Alcala, Spain. For the year-to-date period, we have recorded a total of $33 million related to cost reduction actions and related items, $23 million related to impairments on assets held for sale or sold, $6 million related to clean up costs associated with the repair of our Kearny New Jersey manufacturing facility, and a $45 million gain related to the sale of our Hangzhou, China facility.

General corporate expense and other in the third quarter of 2014 was $15 million lower than the third quarter of 2013, and year-to-date general corporate expense and other was $21 million lower compared to the same period in 2013. For the quarter and year-

to-date comparison, lower overall variable compensation expense was the primary driver of the decrease. In addition, for the third quarter 2014, we have recorded a $6 million gain on a fair market value adjustment related to a fixed capacity Brazil energy contract and realized a $3 million gain related to the net settlement of energy purchases and sales on this contract during the Brazil plant's furnace rebuild. The $6 million fair market value adjustment was related to the correction of a prior period error related to the contracts future commitment as discussed in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The $6 million favorable impact from the market value adjustment is expected to reverse in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $2 million for the third quarter and $5 million year-to-date 2014, compared to the same periods in 2013. For the third quarter and year-to date comparisons, the decreases were primarily due to including $2 million and $6 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation related to our European restructuring plan in the 2013 results.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND OTHER RELATED MATTERS

Liquidity

We have an $800 million multi-currency senior revolving credit facility and a $250 million receivables securitization facility, which serve as our primary sources of liquidity. Our senior revolving credit facility matures in November 2018 and our receivables securitization facility matures in July 2016. In November 2013, we amended the $800 million senior revolving credit facility to extend the maturity to November 2018 and reduce the letters of credit sublimit to $100 million. In July 2013, we amended the receivables securitization facility to extend its maturity to July 2016 and to reduce the size of the facility to $200 million during the months of November, December, and January each year. We have no other significant debt maturities before 2016. As of September 30, 2014, the receivables securitization facility was fully utilized and we had $685 million available on the senior revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2014, we had $2.2 billion of total debt and cash-on-hand of $51 million.

Cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries may be subject to U.S. income taxation upon repatriation to the U.S. We do not provide for U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries as earnings are reinvested and, in the opinion of management, will continue to be reinvested indefinitely outside of the U.S. As of September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, we had approximately $39 million and $49 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents in certain of our foreign subsidiaries where we consider undistributed earnings for these foreign subsidiaries to be permanently reinvested.

We expect that our cash on hand, coupled with future cash flows from operations and other available sources of liquidity, including our senior revolving credit facility, will provide ample liquidity to enable us to meet our cash requirements. Our anticipated uses of cash include capital expenditures, working capital needs, pension contributions, meeting financial obligations, payments of quarterly dividends as authorized by our Board of Directors, and reducing outstanding amounts under the senior revolving credit facility and receivables securitization facility.

We have outstanding share repurchase authorizations and will evaluate and consider repurchasing shares of our common stock, as well as strategic acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and other transactions to create stockholder value and enhance financial performance. Such transactions may require cash expenditures beyond current sources of liquidity or generate proceeds.

The credit agreements applicable to our senior revolving credit facility and the receivables securitization facility contain various covenants that we believe are usual and customary for agreements of these types. The senior revolving credit facility and the securitization facility each include a maximum allowed leverage ratio and a minimum required interest expense coverage ratio. We were in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2014.

Cash Flows

The following table presents a summary of our cash balance and cash flows (in millions):



	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Cash balance	$	51		$	51		$	51		$	51
Net cash flow provided by operating activities	$	179		$	173		$	62		$	158
Net cash flow used for investing activities	$	(97	)	$	(55	)	$	(162	)	$	(217	)
Net cash flow (used for) provided by financing activities	$	(111	)	$	(140	)	$	95		$	57
Unused committed credit available under the senior revolving credit facility	$	685		$	688		$	685		$	688

Operating activities: For year-to-date 2014, we generated $62 million of cash from operating activities compared to $158 million in the same period in 2013. This year over year decrease in operating cash flow was primarily due to an increase in working capital and higher pension fund contributions.

Investing activities: Net cash flow used for investing activities decreased $55 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period of 2013. For the nine months ended 2014, the Company's capital expenditures were $17 million higher compared to the same period of 2013 due to higher furnace rebuild activity in our Composites business. For the nine months ended 2014, the Company received a $44 million final payment related to the 2010 sale of our masonry products business. For the first nine months of 2013, the Company acquired Thermafiber Inc. and Tanaka Kikinzoku (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. for $52 million and also received $26 million of insurance proceeds related to losses on our Kearny New Jersey manufacturing facility in 2013.

Financing activities: Cash provided by financing activities was $38 million higher year-to-date 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to higher net borrowings on our senior revolving credit facilities and short term debt partially offset by the payment of cash dividends.

2014 Investments

Capital Expenditures: The Company will continue a balanced approach to the use of its cash flow. Operational cash flow will be used to fund the Company’s growth and innovation. Capital expenditures in 2014 are expected to be approximately $370 million, including an estimated $65 million for the start of construction of a previously announced non-woven facility. The Company will also continue to evaluate projects and acquisitions that provide opportunities for growth in our businesses, and invest in them when they meet our strategic and financial criteria.

Tax Net Operating Losses

Upon emergence and subsequent to the distribution of contingent stock and cash in January 2007, we generated a significant United States federal tax net operating loss of approximately $3.0 billion. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our federal tax net operating losses remaining were $2.1 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. The federal net operating losses decreased from the prior year based on our estimate of 2014 total year taxable income. Our net operating losses are subject to the limitations imposed under section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. These limits are triggered when a change in control occurs, and are computed based upon several variable factors including the share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the change in control. A change in control is generally defined as a cumulative change of 50 percent or more in the ownership positions of certain stockholders during a rolling three year period. Our initial three year period for measuring an ownership change started on October 31, 2006.

In addition to the United States net operating losses described above, we have net operating losses in various state and foreign jurisdictions which totaled $2.3 billion and $1.0 billion as of September 30, 2014, respectively and $2.5 billion and $0.9 billion as of December 31, 2013, respectively. The state net operating losses decreased and the foreign net operating losses increased from prior year based on our estimate of 2014 taxable income. The evaluation of the amount of net operating losses expected to be realized necessarily involves forecasting the amount of taxable income that will be generated in future years and evaluating all appropriate positive and negative evidence. We have forecasted future results using estimates management believes to be reasonable,

Table of Contents

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

which are based on independent evidence such as expected trends resulting from certain leading economic indicators such as global industrial production and new U.S. residential housing starts. In order to fully utilize our net operating losses, we estimate that the Company will need to generate future federal, state and foreign earnings before taxes of approximately $2.7 billion, $2.7 billion and $0.9 billion, respectively. Management believes the Company will generate sufficient future taxable income within the statutory limitations in order to fully realize the carrying value of its U.S. federal net operating losses. As of September 30, 2014, a valuation allowance exists for certain state and foreign jurisdictions’ net operating loss carryforwards.

The realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent on future events. Actual results inevitably will vary from management’s forecasts. Should we determine that it is likely that our deferred income tax assets are not realizable, we would be required to reduce our deferred tax assets reflected on our Consolidated Financial Statements to the net realizable amount by establishing an accounting valuation allowance and recording a corresponding charge to current earnings. Such adjustments could be material to the financial statements. To date, we have recorded valuation allowances against certain of these deferred tax assets totaling $258 million as of September 30, 2014.

Pension Contributions

The Company has several defined benefit pension plans. The Company made cash contributions of approximately $51 million and $30 million to the plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company expects to contribute $53 million in cash to its global pension plans during 2014. Actual contributions to the plans may change as a result of several factors, including changes in laws that impact funding requirements. The ultimate cash flow impact to the Company, if any, of the pension plan liability and the timing of any such impact will depend on numerous variables, including future changes in actuarial assumptions, legislative changes to pension funding laws, and market conditions.

Derivatives

The Company is exposed to, among other risks, the impact of changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates in the normal course of business. To mitigate some of the near-term volatility in our earnings and cash flows, we use financial and derivative instruments to hedge certain exposures, principally currency and energy-related. The Company does not enter into such transactions for trading purposes. Our current hedging practice is to hedge a variable percentage of certain foreign currency, energy and energy-related exposures. Going forward, the results of our hedging practice could be positive, neutral or negative in any period depending on price changes in the hedged exposures, and will tend to mitigate near-term volatility in the exposures hedged. The practice is neither intended nor expected to mitigate longer term exposures. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Our current practice is to manage our interest rate exposure by balancing the mixture of our fixed and variable rate instruments. We utilize, among other strategies, interest rate swaps to achieve this balance in interest rate exposures.

Fair Value Measurement

Please refer to Note 17 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has entered into limited off balance sheet arrangements, as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission rules, in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe these arrangements will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Contractual Obligations

In the normal course of business, we enter into contractual obligations to make payments to third parties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, there were no material changes to such contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of our business.

SAFETY

Working safely is a condition of employment at Owens Corning. We believe this organization-wide expectation provides for a safer work environment for employees, improves our manufacturing processes, reduces our costs and enhances our reputation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Furthermore, striving to be a world-class leader in safety provides a platform for all employees to understand and apply the resolve necessary to be a high-performing global organization. We measure our progress on safety based on Recordable Incidence Rate (“RIR”) as defined by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, our RIR was 0.56 as compared to 0.47 in the same period a year ago. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, our RIR was 0.53 as compared to 0.48 in the same period a year ago.
