Overview of Fourth Quarter & FY09 Results

Fourth Quarter 2009 Results

Fourth quarter 2009 results reflected positive volume comparisons, strength in certain specialty product lines

and the Company’s comprehensive cost control initiatives

Hexion Specialty Chemicals Q409 results included:

–

Revenues

of

$1.09

billion

versus

$1.18

billion

in

prior

year

due

to

declining

raw

material

costs

offsetting

volume gains and pricing actions

–

Operating

income

of

$36

million

compared

to

an

operating

loss

of

$876

million

in

prior

year

–

Segment

EBITDA

(1)

of

$106

million

compared

to

$46

million

in

prior

year

quarter

The

Company

continued

to

accelerate

the

pace

of

its

productivity

actions

as

Hexion

realized

$51

million

in

productivity savings in the fourth quarter of 2009

–

Throughout 2009, Hexion responded aggressively to the global economic headwinds and achieved

$148 million in productivity savings

Hexion’s ongoing focus on cash management and working capital has yielded significant results:

–

Working capital investment decreased from $679 million at year end 2008 to $376 million at 12/31/09

–

2009 cash generated from operations totaled $355 million

Liquidity remains strong at $367 million at 12/31/09

The Company was in compliance with the senior secured bank leverage ratio under the covenants for its

senior secured bank facility

Fourth Quarter 2009 Results Reflected Improved Volumes and the Cumulative Impact of Productivity Initiatives

(1)

Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. The closest GAAP financial measure is Net Income (Loss). A table that reconciles these two measures is at the end of this presentation. Management 

believes that Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful to investors because the Company is required to have an Adjusted EBITDA to Fixed Charges ratio of greater than 2.0 to 1.0. At December 31, 2009, on a pro forma basis for the 

January 2010 refinancing, the Company was not in compliance with the Adjusted EBITDA to Fixed Charges Ratio incurrence test. Under Hexion’s indenture for the Second Priority Senior Secured Notes, failure of this 

incurrence test does not represent an event of default. However, Hexion may not be able to incur future debt outside of its revolving facility or make acquisitions in certain circumstances. The Company was in compliance with 

the senior secured bank leverage ratio under the covenants for its senior secured bank facility. December 31, 2009 LTM Adjusted EBITDA includes $125  million of in-process productivity program savings.

Summary: Hexion Q409 Results & Outlook

Hexion’s fourth quarter 2009 results reflect positive volume comparisons, strength in

specialty product lines and the Company’s aggressive cost control initiatives

–

Hexion achieved $51 million in productivity savings in Q409

–

Total in process productivity actions of $125 million remained at December 31, 2009

New plant construction in Korea follows recent expansions in Russia, Germany and Brazil as

part of Hexion’s increasing focus on high-growth international markets

A

high

level

of

uncertainty

regarding

customer

demand

remains

in

2010, but Hexion is

guardedly optimistic that the signs of stabilization in several end markets will continue to

drive a gradual improvement in volumes

–

January and February 2010 volume trends were positive compared to prior year

Hexion is focused on creating value from the continued achievement of its productivity

initiatives and growth from specialty product applications in 2010

Recent refinancing improved Hexion’s liquidity and debt profile

–

Focus on cash management continues in 2010
