Item
      2.02.        Results of Operations and
      Financial Condition
On
      October 23, 2007, Lexmark International, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press
      release announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended September
      30, 2007. The text of the press release announcing financial results is
      furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by
      reference.
Item
      2.05.       Costs Associated with Exit or
      Disposal Activities
As
      part
      of its ongoing optimization of its cost and expense structure, the Company
      continually reviews its resources in light of a variety of factors. On October
      22, 2007, the Company determined that it would restructure its workforce and
      consolidate some of its manufacturing capacity. On October 23, 2007, the Company
      announced a plan (the "2007 Restructuring Plan") which includes:
•
Closure
                of one of the Company's inkjet supplies manufacturing facilities in
                Mexico, and additional optimization measures at the remaining inkjet
                facilities in Mexico.
•
Reduction
                of the Company's business support cost and expense structure by further
                consolidating activity globally and expanding the use of shared service
                centers in lower- cost regions. The areas impacted are supply chain,
                service delivery, general and administrative expense, as well as
                marketing
                and sales support functions.
•
Focusing
                consumer segment marketing and sales efforts into countries or geographic
                regions that have the highest supplies
                usage.
The
      2007
      Restructuring Plan is expected to impact approximately 1,650 positions by the
      end of 2008. Most of the impacted positions are being moved to lower-cost
      countries. The Company expects the 2007 Restructuring Plan will result in
      pre-tax charges of approximately $90 million, of which $75 million
      will require cash. The Company expects the 2007 Restructuring Plan to be
      substantially completed by the end of 2008. The text of the press release
      announcing the workforce reduction and additional optimization measures is
      furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by
      reference.
