Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. At March 31, 2019, TDCCJune 30, 2020, the Company had accrued obligations of $813$1,118 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $159$205 million for the remediation of Superfund sites. These obligations are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets. This is management’s currentbest estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which TDCCthe Company has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to approximately two times that amount. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on TDCC’sthe Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. It is the opinion of TDCC’sthe Company’s management, however, that the possibility is remote that costs in excess of the range disclosed will have a material impact on TDCC’sthe Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. As new or additional information becomes available and/or certain spending trends become known, management will evaluate such information in determination of the current estimate of environmental liability. In the second quarter of 2019, as a result of the business separations, and change in ownership of certain sites where there are remediation activities, additional costs may be incurred to effectively manage the ongoing activities. In addition, as a result of the potential culmination of long standing negotiations with regulators and/or agencies, additional charges for environmental matters may be recorded. Management believes that it is reasonably possible that the accrued obligation for environmental matters may be increased up to $400 million as a result of this review. At December 31, 2018, TDCC2019, the Company had accrued obligations of $820$1,155 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $156$207 million for the remediation of Superfund sites.
A summary of Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation can be found in Note 1617 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in TDCC'sthe combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past four decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable
to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products.
Union Carbide expects more asbestos-related suits to be filed against Union Carbide and Amchem in the future, and will aggressively defend or reasonably resolve, as appropriate, both pending and future claims.
Since 2003, Union Carbide has engaged Ankura Consulting Group, LLC ("Ankura"), a third party actuarial specialist, to review Union Carbide's historical asbestos-related claim and resolution activity in order to assist Union Carbide's management in estimating the asbestos-related liability. Each year, Union Carbide requests Ankura has reviewed theto review its claim and resolution activity, including asbestos-related defense and processing costs, to determine the appropriateness of updating the most recent Ankura study.
Each quarter, Union Carbide reviews claims filed, settled and dismissed, as well as average settlement and resolution costs by disease category. Union Carbide also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as the nature of pending claims, trial experience of Union Carbide and other asbestos defendants, current spending for defense and processing costs, significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, trends in the tort system, and their respective effects on expected future resolution costs. Union Carbide's management considers all these factors in conjunction with the most recent Ankura study and determines whether a change in the estimate is warranted. Based on Union Carbide's review of 20192020 activity, it was determined that no adjustment to the accrual was required at March 31, 2019.June 30, 2020.
Because of the uncertainties described above, Union Carbide cannot estimate the full range of the cost of resolving pending and future asbestos-related claims facing Union Carbide and Amchem. As a result, it is reasonably possible that an additional cost of disposing of Union Carbide's asbestos-related claims, including future defense and processing costs, could have a material impact on TDCC'sthe Company's results of operations and cash flows for a particular period and on the consolidated financial position.
Under the Plan, a product liability settlement program administered by an independent claims office (the “Settlement Facility”) was created to resolve breast implant and other product liability claims. Product liability claimants rejecting the settlement program in favor of pursuing litigation must bring suit against a litigation facility (the “Litigation Facility”). Dow Silicones has an obligation
Dow Silicones' liability for breast implant and other product liability claims ("Implant Liability") was $263$160 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, of which $157 million at March 31, 2019June 30, 2020 ($111165 million at December 31, 2018)2019), of which 0 ($20 million at December 31, 2019) was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and $106$160 million at March 31, 2019 ($152145 million at December 31, 2018)2019) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
Dow Silicones is not aware of circumstances that would change the factors used in estimating the Implant Liability and believes the recorded liability reflects the best estimate of the remaining funding obligations under the Plan; however, the estimate relies upon a number of significant assumptions, including: future claim filing levels in the Settlement Facility will be similar to those in a prior settlement program, which management uses to estimate future claim filing levels for the Settlement Facility; future acceptance rates, disease mix, and payment values will be materially consistent with historical experience; no material negative outcomes in future controversies or disputes over Plan interpretation will occur; and the Plan will not be modified. If actual outcomes related to any of these assumptions prove to be materially different, the future liability to fund the Plan may be materially different than the amount estimated. If Dow Silicones was ultimately required to fund the full liability up to the maximum capped value, the liability would be $2,148 million at March 31, 2019.
The amounts recorded by Dow Silicones for the Chapter 11 related matters described above were based on current, known facts, which management believes reflect reasonable and probable estimates of the liability. However, future events could cause the actual costs for Dow Silicones to be higher or lower than those projected or those recorded. Any such events could result in an increase or decrease in the recorded liability.
The following table provides a summary of the final expiration, maximum future payments and recorded liability reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for guarantees:
Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, committed accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when TDCCthe Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others (via delivery of cash or other assets) if specified triggering events occur. With guarantees, such as commercial or financial contracts, non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation of TDCCthe Company to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. The majority of TDCC’sthe Company’s guarantees relate to debt of nonconsolidated affiliates, which have expiration dates ranging from less than one year to less than four years, and trade financing transactions in Latin America, which typically expire within one year of inception. TDCC’sthree years. The Company’s current expectation is that future payment or performance related to the non-performance of others is considered remote.

1.2 million performance stock units with a weighted-average fair value of $57.58 per share.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont Inc. (“DowDuPont” and effective June 3, 2019, n/k/a DuPont de Nemours, Inc. or "DuPont") completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the “Company”), owning all of the outstanding common shares of TDCC. For filings related to the period commencing April 1, 2019 and thereafter, TDCC was deemed the predecessor to Dow Inc., and the historical results of TDCC are deemed the historical results of Dow Inc. for periods prior to and including March 31, 2019. As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted.
OVERVIEW
Merger with DuPont
Effective August 31, 2017, pursuant toThe separation was contemplated by the merger of equals transaction contemplated byeffective August 31, 2017, under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017, The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC”)2017. TDCC and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Historical DuPont”) each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont Inc. (“DowDuPont”) and, as a result, TDCC and Historical DuPont became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the “Merger”). Subsequent to the Merger, TDCC and Historical DuPont engaged in a series of internal reorganization and realignment steps to realign their businesses into three subgroups: agriculture, materials science and specialty products. Dow Inc. (together with TDCC, “Dow”) was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of DowDuPont to serve as the holding company for the materials science business.
As a result of Dow Inc.'s Registration Statement on Form 10 becoming effective on March 12, 2019 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), Dow Inc. is now required to file a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. At March 31, 2019, Dow Inc. and TDCC were separate wholly owned subsidiaries of DowDuPont. At March 31, 2019, Dow Inc. was a holding company that did not have subsidiaries or operations. As a result, financial statements of Dow Inc. have not been included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and, unless otherwise indicated, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, relate to TDCC.
From the Merger date and through March 31, 2019, TDCC’s business activities were components of DowDuPont’s business operations. TDCC’s business activities, including the assessment of performance and allocation of resources, were reviewed and managed by DowDuPont. Information used by the chief operating decision maker of TDCC related to TDCC in its entirety. Accordingly, there were no separate reportable business segments for TDCC under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280 “Segment Reporting” and TDCC's business results have been reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as a single operating segment.
From the Merger date and through March 31, 2019, DowDuPont owned all of the common stock of TDCC. Pursuant to General Instruction H(1)(a) and (b) for Form 10-Q “Omission of Information by Certain Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries,” Dow is filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q including required TDCC disclosures with a reduced disclosure format.
Subsequent Event - Separation from DowDuPont
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont completed the previously announced separation of its materials science business. The separation was effected by way of a pro rata distribution of all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Dow Inc. common stock to DowDuPont stockholders of record as of the close of business, Eastern Time, on March 21, 2019 (the “Record Date”). The shareholders of record of DowDuPont received one share of Dow Inc. common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for every three shares of DowDuPont common stock, par value $0.01 per share, held as of the Record Date. No fractional shares of Dow Inc. common stock were issued. Instead, cash in lieu of any fractional shares was paid to DowDuPont registered shareholders. The number of shares of Dow Inc. common stock issued on April 1, 2019 was 748.8 million shares. Dow Inc. is now an independent, publicly traded company and Dow Inc. common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “DOW.” Dow Inc. common stock began regular-way trading on April 2, 2019, the first day following the distribution.
Effective April 1, 2019, TDCC became a wholly owned subsidiary of Dow Inc.

STATEMENT ON COVID-19, OIL PRICE VOLATILITY AND THIRD QUARTER OUTLOOK
Overview of Dow’s Response to COVID-19
The pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has impacted all geographic regions where Dow products are produced and sold. Financial markets were volatile towards the end of the first quarter and early in the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to uncertainty with respect to the severity and duration of the pandemic, coupled with fluctuations in crude oil prices due in part to the global spread of COVID-19. As the second quarter progressed, crude oil prices increased, driven by improved supply/demand fundamentals. Financial markets have also improved as economies in the U.S. and Western Europe have started to reopen.
The global, regional and local spread of COVID-19 resulted in significant global mitigation measures, including government-directed quarantines, social distancing and shelter-in-place mandates, travel restrictions and/or bans, and restricted access to certain corporate facilities and manufacturing sites. Most of the Company’s manufacturing facilities have been designated essential operations by local governments. As a result, nearly all of the Company’s manufacturing sites and facilities continue to operate and are doing so safely, having implemented social distancing and enhanced health, safety and sanitization measures as directed by Dow's regional Crisis Management Teams (“CMTs”). The CMTs continue to work closely with site leadership and are adjusting alert levels as warranted on a site by site basis. At the time of this filing, approximately half of Dow’s global workforce is working remotely. The CMTs have initiated the implementation of the Company’s comprehensive Return to Workplace plan that is tailored for each site and includes a number of health and safety measures to be followed in a gradual and phased approach. The Company is also encouraging its workforce to follow safety measures when away from work to help prevent community spread of COVID-19.
Dow’s materials science expertise and production capabilities are used to develop some of the most vital hygiene medical products and technologies to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, such as disinfectants, sanitizers, cleansers, plastics used in the production of disposable personal protective equipment for medical professionals, and memory foams for hospital beds. The Company has continued to look for ways to contribute time, talent and materials science expertise to help fight and combat the pandemic while opening some new opportunities for innovation and business. Dow’s contributions to fighting the COVID-19 pandemic include:
•The Company collaborated with nine key partners across a myriad of industries to develop and donate 100,000 isolation gowns to help equip frontline workers in Texas, Louisiana and Mexico.
•Dow, Whirlpool Corporation and Reynolds Consumer Products jointly developed a powered, air-purifying respirator which takes the place of a traditional medical face mask and face shield.
•Dow developed and shared an open source design for a simplified face shield and donated 100,000 face shields to hospitals in Michigan.
•Five Dow sites in the U.S., Europe and Latin America produced more than 200 metric tons of hand sanitizer, equivalent to more than 880,000 eight-ounce bottles, which were primarily donated to local health systems and government agencies.
•The Company committed $3 million to aid COVID-19 relief efforts, with donations going towards global relief organizations, as well as non-profits in communities where Dow operates.
During this public health crisis, the Company is focused on the health and safety of its employees, contractors, customers and suppliers around the world and maintaining safe and reliable operations of its manufacturing sites. Although supply disruptions and related logistical issues have posed challenges across all modes of transportation, the Company’s manufacturing sites have continued to operate during the COVID-19 pandemic, with no significant impact to manufacturing whether through shutdowns or shortages in labor, raw materials or personal protective equipment. Supply chain and logistical challenges are expected to ease through the remainder of 2020, absent significant impacts from COVID-19 infection resurgences.
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position and solid liquidity in the midst of the economic recession triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company started 2020 with significant committed liquidity facilities. As markets became more volatile and uncertain during the first quarter of 2020, the Company took proactive measures to further bolster liquidity by drawing down certain uncommitted credit facilities, which were subsequently repaid in the second quarter of 2020, and partially monetizing investments in company-owned life insurance policies. At June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $12 billion in committed forms of liquidity, including $3.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has no substantive long-term debt maturities until the second half of 2023.
Recognizing the significant impact the COVID-19 pandemic would have on demand in the second quarter of 2020, the Company took proactive actions to electively focus on cash and maintain financial strength with a continued emphasis on safe, reliable operations and disciplined capital allocation. Those actions included: further reducing the 2020 capital expenditure target to $1.25 billion; trimming operating expenses by $350 million; and unlocking another $500 million from working capital. The Company has also temporarily suspended share repurchases and delayed planned maintenance turnaround spending, where appropriate, without compromising safety or its ability to serve customer needs. In addition, the Company announced the temporary idling of select manufacturing facilities to balance production to demand across markets more severely affected by restrained economic activity. This included the idling of three polyethylene production units and two elastomers units; running Dow's polyurethanes assets, including propylene oxide and methylene diphenyl diisocyanate ("MDI"), at reduced operating rates; reducing siloxanes operating rates globally and extending a planned maintenance turnaround at a silicones production unit in Zhangjiagang, China, which has now restarted. Based on current demand, the polyethylene production units have also restarted. The Company continues to monitor demand in automotive and other durable good end-markets and as conditions improve in those end-markets, is bringing units online where needed.
Review of First Half 2020 Financial Impacts from COVID-19 and Third Quarter Outlook
The Company's sales declined 18 percent in the first six months of 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the global economy and supply/demand fundamentals. Demand remained strong in food packaging, health and hygiene, home care and pharma end-markets. Volume declined for products used in consumer durable good end-markets, including construction, furniture and bedding and automotive, with the most notable impacts in the Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure and Performance Materials & Coatings operating segments. Demand for products used in consumer durable goods remained lower through the second quarter largely due to the delayed restart in these industries from May to June.
Local prices declined in the first quarter and continued to decline in the second quarter of 2020, largely impacted by lower global energy prices. In March and April 2020, crude oil prices declined significantly, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with increased supply from oil producers. Declines in crude oil prices impact the pace of oil drilling in the U.S. & Canada, which makes natural gas, a significant by-product of oil drilling and the primary feedstock used in the U.S. by Dow Inc.and other ethylene producers, less cost advantaged. The Company has feedstock flexibility driven by manufacturing assets that have the ability to produce ethylene from natural gas liquids or crude oil-based feedstocks, significant naphtha-based production capabilities, as well as comprehensive financial and physical hedging programs. The Company’s feedstock flexibility, fully integrated feedstock position and differentiated product portfolio positions enable the Company to respond to the challenges from oil price volatility.
The Company experienced margin compression in the second quarter, largely due to lower global energy prices. In the latter half of the second quarter, crude oil prices increased as supply/demand fundamentals improved, driving higher feedstock costs, which should be beneficial to product prices and margins in the third quarter of 2020. See Results of Operations in this report for additional discussion of results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
The Company expects results of operations to improve sequentially as the gradual and uneven recovery progresses. The Company expects net sales to increase 5 to 10 percent sequentially, with increases in all geographic regions and all operating segments. Volume is expected to increase, driven by continued robust consumer demand for food packaging and health and hygiene applications; the initial indicators of recovery in consumer durable good end-markets such as automotive, construction and furniture and bedding; stable demand for solvents and surfactants used in cleaning products; and solid demand in do-it-yourself architectural coatings applications, partially offset by normal seasonality. Local price is also expected to increase sequentially as global energy prices recover and polyethylene price increases take hold. The Company expects margins to expand in the third quarter, driven by sales growth. This outlook assumes virus containment will continue to progress without significant infection resurgences and with continued reopening of economies, with recovery taking a stronger hold in Europe and U.S. & Canada in the third quarter.
The Company will continue to focus on a disciplined approach to cash generation, capital allocation and structural cost improvements, which will serve as a solid foundation for the Company to weather the downturn and capture value as markets lift. In addition to the actions announced in the second quarter, the Company will also increase its 2020 operating expense reduction from $350 million to $500 million through additional structural cost interventions. The Company will also initiate a restructuring program in the third quarter, targeting more than $300 million in annualized Operating EBITDA1 benefit by the end of 2021. This program includes a 6 percent reduction in Dow’s global workforce as well as actions to exit uncompetitive assets. These actions are necessary to maintain competitiveness while the economic recovery gains traction.
Dow has significant addressable market opportunities that are expected to drive growth as the economy recovers. Global economic indicators and end-markets have begun to show improvement, and Dow will continue to benefit from its unique competitive advantages – including its feedstock flexibility, extensive materials portfolio and geographic end-market diversity.
At the time of this filing, the ultimate severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and oil price volatility cannot be reasonably estimated. The COVID-19 pandemic has had and could continue to have a substantial negative impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first six months of 2020 and the additional risks associated with these conditions are more fully discussed in this report in Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors. The Company is actively monitoring for potential financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and oil price volatility, including, but not limited to: gauging the financial health of its customers; assessing liquidity; evaluating the recoverability of its assets; enhancing cyber security monitoring; and evaluating ongoing appropriateness of its estimates.
1. Operating EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Dow defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the U.S. The Company continues to assess the provisions and potential impacts of this legislation; however, there have been no significant impacts to the Company's results of operations or financial position resulting from the CARES Act in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
OVERVIEW
The following is a summary of the results from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020:
•The Company reported net sales in the second quarter of 2020 of $8.4 billion, down 24 percent from $11.0 billion in the second quarter of 2019, with declines across all geographic regions and operating segments. The sales decline was driven by both local price and volume declines.
•Local price decreased 14 percent compared with the SECsame period last year, primarily in response to lower global energy prices, with double-digit declines in all geographic regions. Local price declined in Packaging & Specialty Plastics (down 22 percent), Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure (down 9 percent) and Performance Materials & Coatings (down 6 percent).
•Volume decreased 9 percent compared with the second quarter of 2019. Packaging & Specialty Plastics volume was flat. Volume decreased in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure (down 18 percent) and Performance Materials & Coatings (down 14 percent). Volume declined in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific (up 3 percent).
•Currency had an unfavorable impact of 1 percent on net sales in all operating segments and geographic regions, except U.S. & Canada.
•Research and development ("R&D") expenses were $182 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $208 million in the second quarter of 2019. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $357 million and $356 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $422 million and $418 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019. R&D and SG&A expenses decreased primarily due to cost reductions.
•Integration and separation costs were $46 million in the second quarter of 2020, down from $348 million and $324 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, in the second quarter of 2019, reflecting the wind-down of business separation activities.
•Equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was $95 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $15 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower equity earnings from the Kuwait joint ventures due to margin compression stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.

TDCC'sThe Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most of the earnings from TDCC'sthe Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level. The effective tax rate for the firstsecond quarter of 20192020 for Dow Inc. and TDCC was 31.7negative 18.6 percent, compared with 20.958.1 percent and 36.5 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, for the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, the effective tax rate for Dow Inc. and TDCC was 80.8 percent, compared with 52.0 percent and 41.6 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, for the first quartersix months of 2018.2019. The tax rate for Dow Inc. and TDCC in the second quarter and first six months of 2020 was unfavorably impacted primarily by equity losses and geographic mix of earnings and, to a lesser extent, non-deductible restructuring costs and an increase in tax reserves. The tax rate for Dow Inc. and TDCC in the second quarter of 2019 was unfavorably impacted by non-deductible restructuring costs and was favorably impacted as a result of a change in deferred taxes related to fixed assets. The tax rate for the first six months of 2019 was unfavorably impacted by tax impacts related to spin preparation activities and favorably impacted by tax benefits related to the issuance of stock-based compensation and deferred tax remeasurement in foreign jurisdictions.

SEGMENT RESULTS
Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and the three months ended June 30, 2019) and pro forma Operating EBIT (for the six months ended June 30, 2019) as this is the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. The Company defines pro forma Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, plus pro forma adjustments, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT and pro forma Operating EBIT by segment include all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate. The Company also presents pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as it is included in management's measure of segment performance and is regularly reviewed by the CODM. Pro forma net sales includes the impact of various manufacturing, supply and service related agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva in connection with the separation from DowDuPont which provide for different pricing than the historical intercompany and intracompany pricing practices of TDCC and Historical DuPont. See Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for reconciliations of these measures and a summary of the pro forma adjustments impacting segment measures for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

1. As reported net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with pro forma net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Packaging & Specialty Plastics net sales were $4,001 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 23 percent from net sales of $5,205 million in the second quarter of 2019, with local price down 22 percent, an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent, primarily in EMEAI, and volume flat. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, driven by lower global energy prices and reduced polyethylene pricing. Price declines were reported in Hydrocarbons & Energy as prices for co-products are generally correlated to Brent crude oil prices, which, on average, declined 51 percent compared with the second quarter of 2019, as well as lower cracker co-product prices due to weak end-market demand. Volume was mixed by geographic region as increases in Asia Pacific and EMEAI were offset by declines in U.S. & Canada and Latin America. Packaging and Specialty Plastics reported volume growth in flexible food and specialty packaging, industrial and consumer packaging and health and hygiene applications, which was offset by reduced demand for functional polymers used in durable good end-markets, notably automotive, infrastructure and construction.
Operating EBIT was $318 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 59 percent from Operating EBIT of $768 million in the second quarter of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression in both businesses, driven by lower demand in durable good end-markets and reduced equity earnings due to lower integrated olefin and aromatics margins at the Kuwait and Sadara joint ventures, which more than offset improvement at the Thai joint ventures. These declines more than offset cost reductions as well as demand growth and margin improvement in packaging applications.
Packaging & Specialty Plastics net sales were $8,610 million in the first six months of 2020, down 17 percent from net sales and pro forma net sales of $10,343 million in the first six months of 2019, with local price down 16 percent, an unfavorable currency impact of 1 percent, primarily in EMEAI, and volume flat. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, driven by reduced polyethylene prices and lower global energy prices. Price declines were reported in Hydrocarbons & Energy as prices for co-products are generally correlated to Brent crude oil prices, which, on average, declined 36 percent compared with the first six months of 2019. Volume decreased in Hydrocarbons & Energy, primarily in U.S. & Canada and Asia Pacific, more than offsetting increases in EMEAI. Volume increased in Packaging and Specialty Plastics in Asia Pacific, Latin America and EMEAI, partially offset by declines in U.S. & Canada primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating EBIT was $898 million in the first six months of 2020, down 38 percent from pro forma Operating EBIT of $1,458 million in the first six months of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression in both businesses and reduced equity earnings due to margin compression at the Kuwait and Sadara joint ventures. These declines more than offset cost reductions.

Volume decreased in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals and Industrial Solutions and in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific, reflecting the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals volume decreased primarily due to weak demand in consumer durable good end-markets, notably construction, furniture and bedding and automotive. Volume decreased in Industrial Solutions as improved demand for pharma and home care applications was more than offset by declines in industrial and oil applications and consumer textiles. Local price decreased in both businesses and in all geographic regions. The decrease in local price was primarily driven by lower global energy costs and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on supply/demand fundamentals.
Operating EBIT was a loss of $220 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with Operating EBIT of $154 million in the second quarter of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to demand destruction, margin compression and lower equity earnings from the Kuwait joint ventures.
Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $5,462 million in the first six months of 2020, down 20 percent from net sales of $6,822 million in the first six months of 2019.

Volume declined in both businesses and in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific, which was flat. Volume decreased in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals in all geographic regions and was attributable to weaker demand for products used in consumer durable good end-markets, including construction, furniture and bedding, and automotive, along with lower demand for aircraft deicing applications. Volume decreased in Industrial Solutions due to weakened demand for consumer durable goods and oil and gas and industrial applications, which was offset by stronger demand in pharma, cleaning and home care applications. Industrial Solutions volume declined in all geographic regions, except Asia Pacific. Local price decreased in both businesses and all geographic regions. The decrease in local price was primarily driven by lower global energy and raw material costs.
Operating EBIT was a loss of $45 million in the first six months of 2020, compared with pro forma Operating EBIT of $431 million in the first six months of 2019. Operating EBIT decreased as a result of margin compression, lower equity earnings from the Kuwait joint ventures and softer demand, which was partially offset by lower planned maintenance turnaround costs.

Dow Inc. Non-GAAP Cash Flow Measures
Free Cash Flow
Dow defines free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities - continuing operations, less capital expenditures. Under this definition, free cash flow represents the cash generated by the Company from operations after investing in its asset base. Free cash flow, combined with cash balances and other sources of liquidity, represents the cash available to fund obligations and provide returns to shareholders. Free cash flow is an integral financial measure used in the Company's financial planning process.
Operating EBITDA and Pro Forma Operating EBITDA
Dow defines Operating EBITDA (for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the six months ended June 30, 2020) as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items. Pro forma Operating EBITDA (for the six months ended June 30, 2019) is defined as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, plus pro forma adjustments, excluding the impact of significant items.
Cash Flow Conversion (Operating EBITDA or Pro Forma Operating EBITDA to Cash Flow From Operations)
Dow defines cash flow conversion (Operating EBITDA or pro forma Operating EBITDA to cash flow from operations) as cash flows from operating activities - continuing operations, divided by Operating EBITDA or pro forma Operating EBITDA. Management believes cash flow conversion is an important financial metric as it helps the Company determine how efficiently it is converting its earnings to cash flow.
These financial measures are not recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as alternatives to U.S. GAAP financial measures of performance. All companies do not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same period last year, primarily duemanner and, accordingly, Dow's definitions may not be consistent with the methodologies used by other companies.

At March 31, 2019,June 30, 2020, TDCC had total committed credit facilities of $12.1$8.7 billion and available credit facilities of $7.6$7.4 billion.

See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Debt
As TDCCthe Company continues to maintain its strong balance sheet and financial flexibility, management is focused on net debt (a non-GAAP financial measure), as TDCCthe Company believes this is the best representation of its financial leverage at this point in time.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
Union Carbide Corporation ("Union Carbide") is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past four decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises, and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products.
The table below provides information regarding asbestos-related claims pending against Union Carbide and Amchem based on criteria developed by Union Carbide and its external consultants.consultants:

Plaintiffs’ lawyers often sue numerous defendants in individual lawsuits or on behalf of numerous claimants. As a result, the damages alleged are not expressly identified as to Union Carbide, Amchem or any other particular defendant, even when specific damages are alleged with respect to a specific disease or injury. In fact, there are no personal injury cases in which only Union Carbide and/or Amchem are the sole named defendants. For these reasons and based upon Union Carbide’s litigation and settlement experience, Union Carbide does not consider the damages alleged against Union Carbide and Amchem to be a meaningful factor in its determination of any potential asbestos-related liability.
