CREATING MOMENTUM STRATEGY
37. Create Profitable Growth through new product and
market development
• Products that are consumer driven and
supported by the market are a requirement
for all channels to be successful
1. De-commoditize our offerings,
allowing us to realize higher margins
2. Give us access to new markets that
enable profitable growth
37
NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
38. In 2016 we implemented efforts to build a new product
pipeline to drive profitable growth
U.S. and Canada launched 647
products in 2017
U.S. and Canada region has a
strong pipeline for next 3 years
• $175M pipeline through 2020
• 26 projects underway
• 456 products launched in
2018
Sales from new products are offsetting losses from
declining markets and providing growth

NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
GROWTH IDEATION & EVALUATION STAGE GATE PROCESS LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT
41. To drive transparency on financial benefits we launched an impact
metric to measure the progress of our new products
Each quarter, we report what percentage of our sales within the period
are driven by products launched in the previous 36 months
– It takes between 12 and 18 months to achieve placement and see growth
– E-commerce accelerates the curve
– Provides an opportunity to improve gross margins
– This revenue is not 100% incremental; however, it is necessary to maintain the
health of our revenue stream, enter new markets, and offset traffic declines
– Incorporated into executive compensation metrics
A steady pipeline of new products sustains the health of our portfolio

• Today’s Baby Boomers have sophisticated palates,

The New York Times’ top pick
After blind-tasting wine in more than
80 different glasses with a
professional winemaker, a sommelier,
and a wine critic, we think the best
everyday wine glass is the Libbey
Signature Kentfield Estate All-
Purpose Wine Glass. We considered
over 250 glasses, and we found that
the inexpensive tulip-shaped Libbey
glass enhanced the aromas of both
red and white wines better than most
of the competition.

OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
Over time, Libbey has neither adapted to changes in market demand nor
aligned our assets to be advantaged vs. our competition
• In U.S., processes were labor intensive with a relatively higher labor cost… pressuring
margins lower and limiting our ability to compete
• Local demand in Asia slowed, while Libbey China greatly improved productivity… leaving
plant underutilized, driving up inventory and resulting in down-time charges
• Mexico capacity was allocated to low-margin, LATAM business, while we were poorly serving
USC Region, where higher margins could be achieved
• Competitors were acting irrationally… driving pricing lower to fill capacity and drive cash
flows
91. Our Journey

OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
• Redesign our manufacturing platform… meet market needs
– Fix, move or exit processes that are high in costs relative to market price
– Improve global manufacturing planning & coordination
• Maximize global asset utilization, flexing with sourced supply
– More consistently utilize Libbey factories while partnering with suppliers to achieve
volume flexibility
• Leverage Continuous Improvement to improve capabilities, lower costs and stay
competitive with market needs
• Network Optimization is now a continuous process to match capacity and technology to
changing market needs

147. Libbey is far overdue for a new ERP system
147
• Multiple “green screen”; non-
integrated; legacy ERP systems
• Limits the company’s ability to:
‒ Serve Customers
‒ Reduce working capital
‒ Deliver back office productivity
‒ Support E-commerce growth
• Not capable of supporting
Libbey’s future business needs
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
• Single, modern, integrated ERP
platform:
• Enables capabilities to
‒ Increase customer satisfaction
‒ Standardize; optimize; centralize and
automate processes… productivity
‒ Improve planning to increase service
and lower working capital
• Supports profitable growth for
Libbey’s future
Current State Future State
148. ERP Approach
148
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
• “Out of the Box”
– Buy the best practice and change how Libbey does things
– Customization = time and cost
• Build capabilities and momentum early…go slow to
go faster and more efficiently overall
– Starting in 2018 with building blocks and pilots
– Master Data; Plumbing to expand E-commerce
– Planning to drive larger phases and productivity
149. ERP Roadmap

Definition and reconciliation of non-GAAP measures
Definitions – Other Non-GAAP Measures
Trade Working Capital is defined as net accounts receivable plus net inventory less
accounts payable.
Return On Invested Capital (ROIC) is defined as after tax income from operations
(using a 35% tax rate), adjusted for special items, over ending Trade Working
Capital plus net book value of property, plant and equipment
Constant currency references regarding net sales reflect a simple mathematical
translation of local currency results using the comparable prior period’s currency
conversion rate. Constant currency references regarding Segment EBIT, Adjusted
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin comprise a simple mathematical translation
of local currency results using the comparable prior period’s currency conversion
rate plus the transactional impact of changes in exchange rates from revenues,
expenses and assets and liabilities that are denominated in a currency other than
the functional currency. Our currency market risks include currency fluctuations
relative to the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, euro and RMB.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities plus net
cash provided by (used in) investing activities.

accounting or other advice. This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation (Reform Act of 1995, that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These statements relate to future events, the Company’s
future financial performance with respect to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, business plans and strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive
positions, growth opportunities for existing products, plans and objectives of the Company’s management, capital expenditures and other matters. These statements involve known
and unknown risks, significant uncertainties and other factors (many of which are beyond the control of the Company) that may cause the Company or the Company’s industry’s
actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can
identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,”
“potential,” “pro forma,” “seek” or “continue” or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and actual results may differ

we undertake no obligation to update such statements. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of
future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
Although we base these forward-looking statements on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, position in the market and the development
of the industry in which we operate may differ materially from those described in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation. In addition, even if
our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, position in the market and the development of the industry in which we operate are consistent
with the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. Given
these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
The Company advises you that in the normal course of its business it evaluates potential strategic opportunities that may be available from time to time, including acquisitions,
dispositions, mergers, private equity financings and other corporate transactions. The Company’s evaluation of such opportunities may involve discussions and negotiations with
interested parties concerning the proposed terms and conditions of a potential transaction. As a matter of policy, the Company does not comment on such matters unless
negotiations with interested parties have advanced to the point where they would be material to a reasonable investor and the Company is legally obligated to disclose such
negotiations.
This presentation and today’s prepared remarks contain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the Adjusted Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization,
or Adjusted EBITDA; Adjusted EBITDA margin; Trade Working Capital; Debt, net of cash to Adjusted EBITDA; and references to sales in constant currency are meaningful measures for
investors to compare our results from period to period. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP to GAAP measures may be found in the Appendix of this presentation as well as in the
earnings press release and the supplemental financials.
This presentation also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by the Company relating to market size and growth and other industry data.
These data involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. The Company has not independently verified the
statistical and other industry data generated by independent parties and contained in this presentation and, accordingly, it cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness. In
addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of its future performance and the future performance of the industries in which it operates are necessarily subject to a high degree
of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors.
