MIDLAND, Mich., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dow Corning Corp.
today reported consolidated adjusted net income of $152.9 million
for the third quarter of 2006, an increase of 35 percent from
adjusted net income of $113.2 million reported in the same quarter
of 2005. For the first three quarters of 2006, adjusted net income
was $424.4 million, an increase of 13 percent from adjusted net
income of $375.5 million reported in the same period last year.
Adjusted net income excludes a settlement with the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service in the second quarter of 2006, a gain on issuance
of subsidiary stock in the second quarter of 2005, and certain
items related to Chapter 11 (from which the company emerged on June

reported consolidated net income of $156.0 million for the third
quarter of 2006 and $501.3 million for the first three quarters of
2006. Sales were $1.141 billion in the third quarter of 2006, 21
percent higher than sales of $0.946 billion in the same quarter of
2005. Sales in the first three quarters of 2006 were $3.230
billion, 10 percent higher than sales of $2.936 billion reported in
the first three quarters of 2005. "Strong sales growth was led by
semiconductor and solar silicon, but all segments benefited from
our focus on innovation and solutions thinking," said Dow Corning's
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer J. Donald Sheets. "We
continued to experience the effects of high costs of raw materials
and energy." Dow Corning (http://www.dowcorning.com/ ) provides
