Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.     Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ball Corporation and its controlled affiliates, including its consolidated variable interest entities (collectively Ball, the company, we or our), and have been prepared by the company. Certain information and footnote disclosures, including critical and significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted for this quarterly presentation.

Results of operations for the periods shown are not necessarily indicative of results for the year, particularly in view of the seasonality in the packaging segments and the variability of contract sales in the company’s aerospace segment. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2019, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (annual report).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires Ball’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates are based on historical experience and various assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Ball’s management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis and adjusts or revises the estimates as circumstances change. As future events and their impacts cannot be determined with precision, actual results may differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to fairly state the results of the periods presented.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.

2.     Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

New Lease Accounting Guidance

In February 2016, lease accounting guidance was issued which, for operating leases, requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability. The guidance also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight line basis. On January 1, 2019, Ball adopted the new guidance and all related amendments (the new lease standard), applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2019. As such, comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those prior periods.

As part of adopting the new lease standard, Ball has made the following elections:

To carry forward the historical lease determination and classification conclusions as established under the old standard, and not reassess initial direct costs for existing leases;
To carry forward its historical accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements;
Not to apply the balance sheet recognition requirements of the new lease standard to leases with a term of one year or less (short-term leases); and
For all classes of underlying assets, to account for non-lease components of a contract as part of the single lease component to which they are related.

(b) Current and noncurrent operating lease liabilities are recognized within other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, in Ball’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Ball’s adoption of the new lease standard had an immaterial impact on Ball’s results of operations in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of earnings; an immaterial impact on Ball’s cash flows from operating, financing, and investing activities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and no impact on Ball’s opening retained earnings balance. Ball’s accounting for finance leases remains substantially unchanged as a result of the adoption. See Note 14 for further details regarding Ball’s leases.

Stranded Tax Effects

In February 2018, accounting guidance was issued to permit the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings of stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law in December 2017. Ball adopted this guidance on January 1, 2019, and an election was made to reclassify on the first day of the period of adoption. The total tax amount reclassified was $79 million. Remaining stranded tax amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income, which are not related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, are not significant and will be reclassified to the income statement when the activity leading to the deferral of gains and losses has ceased in full.

New Accounting Guidance

Cloud Computing Arrangements

In August 2018, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to clarify the accounting for implementation costs related to cloud computing arrangements. The amendments specify that existing guidance for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software also applies to capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. The guidance is effective for Ball on January 1, 2020, and the company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Ball Corporation

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Financial Assets

Amendments to existing guidance were issued in June 2016, followed by improvements and transition relief in 2018 and 2019, requiring financial assets or a group of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected when finalized. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that will be deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This guidance is expected to primarily affect Ball’s trade receivables; however, the guidance applies to other financial assets as well. The guidance is effective for Ball on January 1, 2020. The company has established a cross-functional team which is assessing the impact that the adoption of this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

3.     Business Segment Information

Ball’s operations are organized and reviewed by management along its product lines and geographical areas and presented in the four reportable segments outlined below:

Beverage packaging, North and Central America: Consists of operations in the U.S., Canada and Mexico that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers throughout those countries.

Beverage packaging, South America: Consists of operations in Brazil, Argentina and Chile that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers throughout most of South America.

Beverage packaging, Europe: Consists of operations in numerous countries in Europe, including Russia, that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers throughout most of Europe.

Aerospace: Consists of operations that manufacture and sell aerospace and other related products and provide services used in the defense, civil space and commercial space industries.

As presented in the table below, Other consists of non-reportable segments located in Africa, Middle East and Asia (beverage packaging, AMEA) and Asia Pacific (beverage packaging, Asia Pacific) that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers; a non-reportable segment that manufactures and sells aerosol containers, extruded aluminum aerosol containers and aluminum slugs (aerosol packaging); undistributed corporate expenses; intercompany eliminations and other business activities.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those in the company’s consolidated financial statements as discussed in Note 1. The company also has investments in operations in Guatemala, Panama, South Korea, the U.S. and Vietnam that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and, accordingly, those results are not included in segment sales or earnings.

4.     Acquisitions and Dispositions

Beverage Packaging China

In December 2018, the company announced an agreement to sell its metal beverage packaging business in China for consideration of approximately $225 million, plus potential additional consideration related to the relocation of an existing facility in China in the coming years. The transaction received all necessary antitrust approvals during the first quarter of 2019 and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the China beverage packaging business are presented as held for sale as of June 30, 2019. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2019.

Prior to the reclassification of the China beverage packaging business assets and liabilities to held for sale, the company assessed the carrying value of certain working capital balances and then conducted an impairment test of the goodwill and other long-lived assets of the China beverage packaging business. Upon reclassification of the assets and liabilities to held for sale, the carrying value of the disposal group as a whole was compared to the fair value of the business less costs to sell. The approach to establish fair value was consistent with that outlined in the critical accounting policy for “Recoverability of Goodwill and Intangible Assets” in Ball’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. No impairment or other adjustments were required as a result of these impairment assessments.

The company has not provided any deferred tax impact in the financial statements for the income tax consequences that may arise when the sale is completed in a future reporting period.

The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the China beverage packaging business included within held for sale:

U.S. Steel Food and Steel Aerosol Business

On July 31, 2018, Ball sold its U.S. steel food and steel aerosol packaging business and formed a joint venture, Ball Metalpack. In exchange for the sale of this business, Ball received approximately $600 million of cash proceeds, subject to customary closing adjustments completed as of December 31, 2018, as well as a 49 percent ownership interest in Ball Metalpack. This investment is reported in other assets as an equity method investment in Ball’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Ball recorded a loss of $41 million in connection with this sale. This loss was recorded in business consolidation and other activities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of earnings.

The assets of the sold business included nine plants that manufacture and sell steel food and steel aerosol containers. The manufacturing plants were located in Canton and Columbus, Ohio; Milwaukee and Deforest, Wisconsin; Chestnut Hill, Tennessee; Horsham, Pennsylvania; Springdale, Arkansas; and Oakdale, California.

In connection with the sale of the U.S. steel food and steel aerosol business, the company entered into an agreement to supply metal to Ball Metalpack, which expired on December 31, 2018, and agreements to provide transition and other services to Ball Metalpack. At June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, Ball was owed $33 million and $170 million, respectively, and Ball owed $5 million and $34 million, respectively, related to the above agreements, which are reported in receivables, net, and accounts payable, respectively, in Ball’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

5.     Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Disaggregation of Sales

The company disaggregates net sales by reportable segments as disclosed in Note 3, and based on the timing of transfer of control for goods and services as explained below. The transfer of control for goods and services may occur at a point in time or over time. As disclosed in Note 3, the company’s business consists of four reportable segments, which encompass disaggregated product lines and geographical areas: (1) beverage packaging, North and Central America; (2) beverage packaging, South America; (3) beverage packaging, Europe; and (4) aerospace.

The following table disaggregates the company’s net sales based on the timing of transfer of control:

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, contract liabilities increased by $8 million, which is net of cash received of $113 million and amounts recognized as sales of $105 million, all of which related to current contract liabilities. The amount of sales recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2019, which were included in the opening contract liabilities balances, was $45 million, all of which related to current contract liabilities. Current contract liabilities are classified within other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and noncurrent contract liabilities are classified within other liabilities.

The company also recognized sales of $6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, and $1 million and $5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in prior periods. These sales amounts are the result of changes in the transaction price of the company’s contracts with customers.

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

In the context of the revenue recognition standard, enforceable contracts are those that have an enforceable right to payment, which Ball typically has once a binding forecast or purchase order (or similar contract) is in place and Ball produces under the contract. Within Ball’s packaging segments, enforceable contracts as defined all have a duration of less than one year. Contracts that have an original duration of less than one year are excluded from the requirement to disclose remaining performance obligations based on the company’s election to use the practical expedient.

The table below discloses: (1) the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of the end of the reporting period for contracts with an original duration of greater than one year, and (2) when the company expects to record sales on these multi-year contracts.

Ball sold the Chatsworth facility during the fourth quarter of 2018.

Beverage Packaging, South America

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the company recorded a $56 million gain related to indirect tax gain contingencies in Brazil as these amounts are now estimable and realizable. The company’s Brazilian subsidiaries filed lawsuits in 2014 and 2015 to challenge the Brazilian tax authorities regarding the computation of certain indirect taxes, claiming amounts were overpaid to the tax authorities because the tax base included a “tax on tax” component. See Note 21 for further details. The amounts recorded in business consolidation and other activities relate to periods prior to 2019. In the event other comparable cases are resolved and the amounts claimed become estimable and realizable, the company will record gains, which may result in material reimbursements to the company in future periods.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the company recorded charges of $16 million composed of facility shutdown costs, asset impairment, accelerated depreciation and other costs related to restructuring activities.

Charges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, included $3 million and $4 million of expense, respectively, for individually insignificant activities.

Beverage Packaging, Europe

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the company recorded charges of $13 million and $11 million, respectively, for asset impairments, accelerated depreciation and inventory impairments related to previously announced plant closures and restructuring activities.

Other charges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, included $3 million and $4 million of expense, respectively, for individually insignificant activities.
