Where can I find the specific financial results for Corning's second quarter of 2013?

The specific financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013, are detailed in the press release dated July 30, 2013, which is attached as Exhibit 99 to this 8-K filing. You should refer to that press release for detailed figures on revenue, earnings, and segment performance.

What is the significance of this 8-K filing for investors?

This 8-K filing is significant because it officially disseminates Corning's second-quarter 2013 financial results to the public and the SEC. It signals the company's performance during the period and provides the basis for investor analysis and decision-making, although the detailed information is in the attached press release.

Are the financial results presented in this 8-K considered 'filed' with the SEC?

No, the information furnished in this 8-K filing, particularly the press release, is generally considered 'furnished' rather than 'filed' under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This means it does not carry the same liabilities as information that is formally filed, unless specifically incorporated by reference into another SEC filing.
