Arconic and subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(dollars in millions, exceptper-share amounts)

A. Basis of Presentation

The interim Consolidated Financial Statements of Arconic Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Arconic” or the “Company”) are unaudited. These Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. The results reported in these Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. The 20162017 year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This Form10-Q report should be read in conjunction with Arconic’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2017, which includes all disclosures required by GAAP. Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

The separation of Alcoa Inc. into two standalone, publicly-traded companies,presentation (see below and Note D).

On January 1, 2018, Arconic Inc. (theadopted new name for Alcoa Inc.) and Alcoa Corporation, became effective on November 1, 2016 (the “Separation Transaction”). The financial results of Alcoa Corporation for all periods priorguidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) related to the Separation Transaction have been retrospectively reflected infollowing: presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost that required a reclassification of costs within the Statement of Consolidated Operations as discontinued operationsOperations; presentation of certain cash receipts and as such, have been excluded from continuing operations and segment results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016. The cash flows, equity and comprehensive income related to Alcoa Corporation have not been segregated and are included inpayments within the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows Statementthat required a reclassification of Changesamounts between operating and either financing or investing activities; and the classification of restricted cash within the statement of cash flows. See Note B for further details.
In January 2018, management changed the organizational structure of the businesses in Consolidated Equityits Engineered Products and Statement of Consolidated Comprehensive Income, respectively, for the second quarterSolutions (EP&S) segment, from four business units to three business units, with a focus on aligning its internal structure to core markets and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Pursuant to the authorization provided at a special meeting of Arconic common shareholders held on October 5, 2016, shareholders approved a1-for-3 reverse stock split of Arconic’s outstandingcustomers and authorized shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).reducing cost. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every three shares of issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, without anythis change in the parEP&S segment organizational structure, management assessed and concluded that each of the three business units represent reporting units for goodwill impairment evaluation purposes.  Also, as a result of the reorganization, goodwill was reallocated to the three new reporting units and evaluated for impairment during the first quarter of 2018.  The estimated fair value per share. The Reverse Stock Split reducedof each reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying value; thus, there was no goodwill impairment. More than 92% of Arconic’s total goodwill at March 31, 2018 was allocated to the numberfollowing three EP&S reporting units: Arconic Engines ($2,095), Arconic Fastening Systems ($1,623) and Arconic Engineered Structures ($517). See Note M for further details of sharesan interim goodwill impairment evaluation that was performed for the Arconic Engines reporting unit during the second quarter of common stock outstanding from approximately 1.3 billion shares to approximately 0.4 billion shares. The Company’s common stock began trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange on October 6, 2016.

2018.

B. Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued changes to employee share-based payment accounting. Previously, an entity determined for each share-based payment award whether the difference between the deduction for tax purposes and the compensation cost recognized for financial reporting purposes resulted in either an excess tax benefit or a tax deficiency. Excess tax benefits were recognized in additionalpaid-in capital; tax deficiencies were recognized either as an offset to accumulated excess tax benefits, if any, or in the income statement. Excess tax benefits were not recognized until the deduction reduced taxes payable. The changes require all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share-based payment awards to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity also should recognize excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. Additionally, the presentation of excess tax benefits related to share-based payment awards in the statement of cash flows changed. Previously, excess tax benefits were separated from other income tax cash flows and classified as a financing activity. The changes require excess tax benefits to be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity. Also, the changes require cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares fortax-withholding purposes to be classified as a financing activity. Additionally, for a share-based award to qualify for equity classification it previously could not be partially settled in cash in excess of the employer’s minimum statutory withholding requirements. The changes permit equity classification of share-based awards for withholdings up to the maximum statutory tax rates in applicable jurisdictions. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2017. Management has concluded that the adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued changes eliminating the requirement for an investor to adjust an equity method investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on astep-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. Additionally, an entity that has anavailable-for-sale equity security that

becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting must recognize through earnings the unrealized holding gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive income at the date the investment becomes qualified for use of the equity method. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2017. Management has concluded that the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued changes to derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments. These changes clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2017. Management has determined that the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued changes to the accounting for Intra-Entity transactions, other than inventory. Previously, no immediate tax impact was recognized in the consolidated financial statements as a result of intra-entity transfers of assets. The previous standard precluded an entity from reflecting a tax benefit or expense from an intra-entity transfer between entities that file separate tax returns, whether or not such entities were in different tax jurisdictions, until the asset was sold to a third party or otherwise recovered. The previous standard also prohibited recognition by the buyer of a deferred tax asset for the temporary difference arising from the excess of the buyer’s tax basis over the cost to the seller. The changes require the current and deferred income tax consequences of the intra-entity transfer to be recorded when the transaction occurs. The exception to defer the tax consequences of inventory transactions is maintained. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2017. Management has determined that the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued changes to the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, which previously required measurement of any goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. An entity will perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value without exceeding the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Arconic has elected to early adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2017, and will apply it on a prospective basis. Management does not anticipate that the adoption of these changes will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued changes which narrow the definition of a business and require an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, which would not constitute the acquisition of a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs. Arconic has elected to early adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2017, and will apply it on a prospective basis. Management does not anticipate that the adoption of these changes will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Issued

In May 2014, the FASB issued changes to the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. These changes created a comprehensive framework for all entities in all industries to apply in the determination of when to recognize revenue and, therefore, supersede virtually all existing revenue recognition requirements and guidance. This framework is expected to result in less complex guidance in application while providing a consistent and comparable methodology for revenue recognition. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract(s), (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s), and (v) recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the new guidance by one year, making theseThese changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018.

Arconic expects to adopt theadopted this new guidance using the modified retrospective transition approach. The Company has formed a project assessment and adoption team and is currently reviewing contract terms and assessingapproach applied to those contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. There was no cumulative effect adjustment to the impactopening balance of adopting the new guidance onretained earnings in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Based onBalance Sheet in the Company’s initial contract assessment, it believes thatfirst quarter of 2018, as the adoption did not result in a change to our timing of revenue under certain contracts will continuerecognition, which continues to be recognized at a point in time, while revenue under other contracts, primarily within the Engineered Products and Solutions segment, may be recognized over time due to no alternative usetime. See Note C for the product as well as an enforceable right of payment from the customer in the event of termination of the contract. The Company is continuing to assess the impact that over-time revenue recognition will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements, therefore an estimate of the impact of adopting this standard is not currently determinable.

further details.

In January 2016, the FASB issued changes to equity investments. These changes require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values atusing the measurement alternative of cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Additionally,Also, the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values has been simplified by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. Also, the new guidance required changes in fair value of equity securities to be recognized immediately as a component of net income instead of being reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss until the gain (loss) is realized. These changes becomebecame effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018.2018 and have been applied on a prospective basis. Arconic elected the measurement alternative for its equity investments that do not have


readily determinable fair values. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued changes to the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments within the statement of cash flows. The guidance identifies eight specific cash flow items and the sections where they must be presented within the statement of cash flows. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018 and have been be applied retrospectively. As of result of the adoption, Arconic reclassified cash received related to beneficial interest in previously transferred trade accounts receivables from operating activities to investing activities in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. This new accounting standard does not reflect a change in our underlying business or activities. The reclassification of cash received related to beneficial interest in previously transferred trade accounts receivables was $285 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. In addition, Arconic reclassified $52 of cash paid for debt prepayments including extinguishment costs from operating activities to financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
In November 2016, the FASB issued changes to the classification of cash and cash equivalents within the statement of cash flow. Restricted cash and cash equivalents will be included within the cash and cash equivalents line on the cash flow statement and a reconciliation must be prepared to the statement of financial position. Transfers between restricted cash and cash equivalents and cash and cash equivalents will no longer be presented as cash flow activities in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows and for material balances of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents Arconic will disclose information regarding the nature of the restrictions. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018 and have been applied retrospectively. Management has determined that the potentialadoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. Restricted cash was $5, $4 and $5 at June 30, 2018, December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
In March 2017, the FASB issued changes to the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The new guidance requires registrants to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item or items as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Also, only the service cost component will be eligible for asset capitalization. Registrants will present the other components of net periodic benefit cost separately from the service cost component; and, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net periodic benefit cost must be disclosed. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018 and were adopted retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic benefit cost in the Statement of Consolidated Operations, and prospectively for the asset capitalization of the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost. The Company recorded the service related net periodic benefit cost within Cost of goods sold, Selling, general administrative, and other expenses and Research and development expenses and recorded the non-service related net periodic benefit cost (except for the curtailment cost which was recorded in Restructuring and other charges) separately from service cost in Other expense (income), net within the Statement of Consolidated Operations. The impact of thesethe retrospective adoption of this guidance was an increase to consolidated Operating income of $39 and $77 while there was no impact to consolidated Net income for the second quarter or six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
In May 2017, the FASB issued clarification to guidance on the modification accounting criteria for share-based payment awards. The new guidance requires registrants to apply modification accounting unless three specific criteria are met. The three criteria are 1) the fair value of the award is the same before and after the modification, 2) the vesting conditions are the same before and after the modification and 3) the classification as a debt or equity award is the same before and after the modification. These changes became effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018 and were applied prospectively to new awards modified after adoption. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements will not be material.

Statements.

Issued
In February 2016, the FASB issued changes to the accounting and presentation of leases. These changes require lessees to recognize a right of use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize a right of use asset and lease liability. Additionally,Also, when measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease, optional payments should be included only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease, exercise a purchase option, or not exercise an option to terminate the lease. As originally released, the standards update required application at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented at the time of adoption. However, in July 2018, the FASB provided entities the option to instead apply the provisions of the new leases guidance at the effective date, without adjusting the comparative periods presented. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 2019. Arconic’s current operating lease portfolio is primarily comprised of land and buildings, plant equipment, vehicles, and computer equipment.  A cross-functional implementation team is in the process of determining the scope of arrangements that will be subject to this standard as well as assessing the impact to the Company’s systems, processes and internal controls.  Arconic has contracted with a third-party vendor to implement a software solution. Concurrently, Arconic is compiling lease data to be uploaded into


the software solution to account for leases under the new standard. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes on the Consolidated Financial Statements. AnBalance Sheet, which will require right of use assets and lease liabilities be recorded for operating leases; therefore, an estimate of the impact of this standard is not currently determinable.

 However, the adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Statement of Consolidated Operations or Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.

In June 2016, the FASB added a new impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses. The CECL model applies to most debt instruments, trade receivables, lease receivables, financial guarantee contracts, and other loan commitments. The CECL model does not have a minimum threshold for recognition of impairment losses and entities will need to measure expected credit losses on assets that have a low risk of loss. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 2020. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2016,2017, the FASB issued guidance that will make more financial and nonfinancial hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. It is intended to more closely align hedge accounting with companies’ risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and increase transparency as to the classificationscope and results of certain cash receipts and cash payments within the statement of cash flows. The guidance identifies eight specific cash flow items and the sections where they must be presented within the statement of cash flows.hedging programs. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 20182019. For cash flow and earlynet investment hedges existing at the date of adoption, Arconic will apply a cumulative-effect adjustment related to eliminating the separate measurement of ineffectiveness to accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendment is permitted.adopted. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance is required only prospectively. Management does not expect these changes to have a materialis currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2016,February 2018, the FASB issued changesguidance that allows an optional reclassification from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Accumulated deficit for stranded tax effects resulting from the classification of cashTax Cuts and cash equivalents within the cash flow statement. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents will be included within the cash and cash equivalents lineJobs Act enacted on the cash flow statement and a reconciliation must be prepared to the statement of financial position. Transfers between restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents and cash and cash equivalents will no longer be presented as cash flow activities in the statement of cash flows and material balances of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents must disclose information regarding the nature of the restrictions.December 22, 2017. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018. Management has determined that the adoption of these changes will not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued changes to shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. Management has determined that the adoption of these changes will not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued changes to the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The new guidance requires registrants to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item or items as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for asset capitalization. Registrants will present the other components of net periodic benefit cost separately from the service cost component; and, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net periodic benefit cost must be disclosed. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new standard must be adopted retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement, and prospectively for the asset capitalization of the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost.2019.  Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these

C. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company's contracts with customers are comprised of acknowledged purchase orders incorporating the Company’s standard terms and conditions, or for larger customers, terms under negotiated multi-year agreements. These contracts with customers typically consist of the manufacture of products which represent single performance obligations that are satisfied upon transfer of control of the product to the customer. The Company produces fastening systems; seamless rolled rings; investment castings, including airfoils and forged jet engine components; extruded, machined and formed aircraft parts; aluminum sheet and plate; integrated aluminum structural systems; architectural extrusions; and forged aluminum commercial vehicle wheels. Transfer of control is assessed based on alternative use of the products we produce and our enforceable right to payment for performance to date under the contract terms. Transfer of control and revenue recognition generally occur upon shipment or delivery of the product, which is when title, ownership and risk of loss pass to the customer and is based on the applicable shipping terms. The shipping terms vary across all businesses and depend on the product, the country of origin, and the type of transportation (truck, train, or vessel). An invoice for payment is issued at time of shipment. The Company’s objective is to have net 30-day terms. Our business units set commercial terms on which Arconic sells products to its customers. These terms are influenced by industry custom, market conditions, product line (specialty versus commodity products), and other considerations.
The following table disaggregates revenue by major end market served. Differences between segment totals and consolidated Arconic are in Corporate. In the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, Corporate included $38 of costs related to settlements of certain customer claims primarily related to product introductions.

D. Segment Information
Arconic is a global leader in lightweight metals engineering and manufacturing. Arconic’s innovative, multi-material products, which include aluminum, titanium, and nickel, are used worldwide in aerospace, automotive, commercial transportation, building and construction, industrial applications, defense, and packaging. Arconic’s segments are organized by product on a worldwide basis. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company expectschanged its primary measure of segment performance from Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) to recordnon-service related net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost of approximately $150Segment operating profit, which would be recorded separately in the Othermore closely aligns segment performance with Operating income net line itemas presented in the Statement of Consolidated Operations uponOperations. Segment performance under Arconic’s management reporting system is evaluated based on a number of factors; however, the adoptionprimary measure of this standard. Managementperformance is currently evaluatingSegment operating profit. Arconic’s definition of Segment operating profit is Operating income excluding Special items. Special items include Restructuring and other charges and Impairment of goodwill. Segment operating profit also includes certain items that, under the potentialprevious segment performance measure, were recorded in Corporate, such as the impact of prospectively adopting the asset capitalizationLIFO inventory accounting, metal price lag, intersegment profit eliminations, and derivative activities. Segment operating profit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of only the service cost component.

In May 2017, the FASB issued clarificationother companies. Prior period financial information has been recast to guidance on the modification accounting criteria for share-based payment awards. conform to current year presentation. Differences between segment totals and consolidated Arconic are in Corporate. 


The new guidance requires registrants to apply modification accounting unless three specific criteria are met. The three criteria are 1) the fair value or the award is the same before and after the modification, 2) the vesting conditions are the same before and after the modification and 3) the classificationoperating results of Arconic’s reportable segments were as a debt or equity award is the same before and after the modification. These changes become effective for Arconic on January 1, 2018 and are to be applied prospectively to new awards granted after adoption. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(see Note G), including the separation of approximately 1,070 employees (800 in the Engineered Products and Solutions segment, 30 in the Global Rolled Products segment, and 240 in the Transportation and Construction Solutions segment); a net charge of $7 ($4after-tax) for other miscellaneous items; and a net favorable benefit of $7 ($3after-tax) for the reversal of a number of small layoff reserves related to prior periods.

Arconic does not include Restructuring and other charges in the results of its reportable segments. The pretax impact of allocating such charges to segment results would have been as follows:

Other includes reversals of previously recorded restructuring charges and the effects of foreign currency translation.  In 2018, Other for layoff costs also included a reclassification of $14 in pension costs, as this liability was reflected in Arconic’s separate liability for pension obligations.  In 2017, Other for layoff costs includes thealso included a reclassification of a stock awards reversal of $13. In 2016, Other for other exit costs also included reclassifications of $8 in asset retirement, $2 in environmental obligations and $4 in legal obligations as these liabilities were included in Arconic’s separate reserves for asset retirement obligations, environmental remediation and legal costs.

The remaining reserves are expected to be paid in cash during 2018.

Service cost was included within Cost of goods sold, Selling, general administrative, and other expenses, and Research and development expenses; curtailments were included in Restructuring and other charges; and all other cost components were recorded in Other expense (income), net in the Statement of Consolidated Operations.
In the first quarter of 2018, the Company announced that, effective April 1, 2018, benefit accruals for future service and compensation under all of the Company's qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans for U.S. salaried and non-bargaining hourly employees ceased. As a result of this change, in the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a decrease to $12, which isthe accrued pension benefit liability of $136 related to the reduction of future benefits ($141 offset in Accumulated other comprehensive loss) and curtailment charges of $5 in Restructuring and other charges.
In conjunction with the separation of Alcoa Inc. on November 1, 2016, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation approved management’s plan to separate the Alcoa Inc. pension plans between Arconic Inc. and Alcoa Corporation. The plan stipulates that Arconic will make cash contributions over a period of 30 months (from November 1, 2016) to its two largest pension plans. Payments are expected to be paidmade in three increments of no less than $50 each ($150 total) over this 30-month period. The Company made payments of $50 in March 2018 and $50 in April 2017. Upon finalization of 2018 pension plan valuations, which are expected to be complete during the third quarter of 2018, additional cash contributions that were made in the first quarter of 2018 may be used to satisfy the $150 requirement.
On April 13, 2018, the United Auto Workers ratified a new five-year labor agreement, effective May 1, 2018, covering approximately 1,300 U.S. employees of Arconic.  A provision within the next yearagreement includes a retirement benefit increase for layoffs.

E. Acquisitionsfuture retirees that participate in a defined benefit pension plan, which impacts approximately 300 of those employees. In addition, effective January 1, 2019, benefit accruals for future service will cease.  As result of these changes, a curtailment charge of $9 was recorded in Restructuring and Divestitures

In April 2016, Arconic completedother charges in the salesecond quarter of 2018.

H. Income Taxes
Arconic’s year-to-date tax provision is comprised of the Remmele Medical businessmost recent estimated annual effective tax rate applied to LISI MEDICALyear-to-date pre-tax ordinary income. The tax impact of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are recorded discretely in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the tax provision is adjusted for $102 in cash ($99 netthe interim period impact of transaction costs)non-benefited pre-tax losses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the estimated annual effective tax rate, before discrete items, applied to ordinary income was 27.0%. This business,rate was higher than the federal statutory rate of 21%, which was part ofenacted by the RTI International Metals acquisition, manufactures precision-machined metal products for customersTax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Act”) on December 22, 2017, primarily due to the additional estimated U.S. tax on Global Intangible Low-


Taxed Income (GILTI) pursuant to the 2017 Act, domestic taxable income in the minimally invasive surgical device and implantable device markets. While owned by Arconic, the operating results and assets and liabilities of this business were included in the Engineered Products and Solutions segment. Remmele Medical generated third-party sales of approximately $20 from January 1, 2016 through the divestiture date, and, at the time of the divestiture, had approximately 330 employees. This transaction iscertain U.S. states no longer subject to post-closing adjustments.

valuation allowance, and foreign income tax in higher rate jurisdictions.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the estimated annual effective tax rate, before discrete items, applied to ordinary income was 28.4%. This rate was lower than the federal statutory rate of 35% applicable to 2017 due to foreign income taxed in lower rate jurisdictions, a tax basis in excess of book basis in Alcoa Corporation common stock sold, and a nontaxable gain on the Debt-for-Equity Exchange. These beneficial items were partially offset by a loss on the sale of a rolling mill in Fusina, Italy for which no net tax benefit was recognized and valuation allowances related to U.S. foreign tax credits.
For the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the tax rate including discrete items was 38.1% and 21.2%, respectively. Discrete items of $21 were recorded in the second quarter ended June 30, 2018, primarily related to revised estimates of the provisional impact of the enactment of the 2017 Act discussed further below. There were no individually material discrete items recorded in the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.
The tax provisions for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were comprised of the following:

On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Act was signed into law, making significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Also on December 22, 2017, Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118"), Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, was issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission to address the application of U.S. GAAP for financial reporting. SAB 118 permits the use of provisional amounts based on reasonable estimates in the financial statements. SAB 118 also provides that the tax impact may be considered incomplete in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the 2017 Act. Any adjustments to provisional or incomplete amounts should be included in income from continuing operations as an adjustment to tax expense or benefit in the reporting period that the amounts are determined within one year.
The Company's analysis of U.S. tax reform legislation, updated through June 30, 2018, resulted in an additional charge of $21 to the 2017 year-end provisional charge of $272. A charge of $18 was recorded for an increase in the provisional estimate of the one-time transition tax. An additional charge of $3 was also recorded for the portion of Alternative Minimum Tax ("AMT") credits expected to be refunded upon filing the 2018 tax return that will result in no benefit under government sequestration. The Company's estimates of the impact of the 2017 Act remain provisional through June 30, 2018.
The impact of the rate reduction will be finalized as part of the filing of the 2017 U.S. income tax return during 2018. Arconic will continue to analyze the amount of foreign earnings and profits, the associated foreign tax credits, and additional guidance that may be issued during 2018 in order to further update the estimated deemed repatriation calculation as necessary under SAB 118. Arconic has not yet gathered, prepared and analyzed all the necessary information in sufficient detail to determine whether any excess foreign tax credits that may result from the deemed repatriation will be realizable.
Provisional estimates of the impact of the 2017 Act on the realizability of certain deferred tax assets, including, but not limited to, foreign tax credits, AMT credits, and state tax loss carryforwards have been made based on information and computations that were available, prepared, and analyzed as of February 2, 2018. Through June 30, 2018, there were no changes to the estimates used to evaluate the realizability of deferred tax assets. Further analysis, or the issuance of additional guidance, could result in changes to the realizability of deferred tax assets.
As a result of the 2017 Act, the non-previously taxed post-1986 foreign earnings and profits (calculated based on U.S. tax principles) of certain U.S.-owned foreign corporations has been subject to U.S. tax under the one-time transition tax provisions. In the fourth quarter of 2017, Arconic had no plans to distribute such earnings in the foreseeable future and considered that conclusion to be incomplete under SAB 118. There is no change to this conclusion through June 30, 2018.
The 2017 Act creates a new requirement that certain income earned by foreign subsidiaries, GILTI, must be included in the gross income of the U.S. shareholder. The 2017 Act also established the Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT). Arconic


anticipates that it will be subject to GILTI and has included an estimate of GILTI in the calculation of the 2018 estimated annual effective tax rate. At this time, Arconic does not anticipate being subject to BEAT for 2018. In the first quarter ended March 31, 2018, Arconic made a final accounting policy election to treat taxes due on future inclusions in U.S. taxable income related to GILTI as a current period expense when incurred.
In July 2018, the Company received notification from a foreign tax authority that their inquiry into the 2016 tax return was completed. The uncertain tax position taken on the tax return is effectively settled, and as a result, a previously unrecognized tax benefit of up to approximately $38 would be recognized in the third quarter of 2018 after evaluating the need for a valuation allowance.
Also in July 2018, Spain’s National Court upheld an assessment against the Company related to the 2006 through 2009 tax years. Arconic is preparing to petition the Supreme Court of Spain to review the National Court’s decision (see Note Q). As a result of the National Court’s decision, the Company will reassess its recognition and measurement of tax benefits related to the uncertain tax positions in the 2006 to 2009 tax years in the third quarter of 2018. The potential impact on the Provision for income taxes could be a charge of up to approximately $59 (€51) which would be recognized in the third quarter of 2018. As discussed in Note Q, under the Tax Matters Agreement, Alcoa Corporation is responsible for 49% of the net liability.
I. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) amounts are computed by dividing earnings, after the deduction of preferred stock dividends declared, by the average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS amounts assume the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive share equivalents outstanding.
The information used to compute basic and diluted EPS attributable to Arconic common shareholders was as follows (shares in millions):

K. Receivables
Arconic has an arrangement with three financial institutions to sell certain customer receivables without recourse on a revolving basis. The sale of such receivables is completed using a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which is a consolidated subsidiary of Arconic. This arrangement provides for minimum funding of $200 up to a maximum of $400 for receivables sold. Arconic maintains a beneficial interest, or a right to collect cash, on the sold receivables that have not been funded (deferred purchase program). On March 30, 2012, Arconic initially sold $304 of customer receivables in exchange for $50 in cash and $254 of deferred purchase program under the arrangement. Arconic has received additional net cash funding of $300 ($2,658 in draws and $2,358 in repayments) since the program’s inception, including net cash draws totaling $0 ($300 in draws and $300 in repayments) for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the deferred purchase program receivable was $313 and $187, respectively, which was included in Other receivables on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. The deferred purchase program receivable is reduced as collections of the underlying receivables occur; however, as this is a revolving program, the sale of new receivables will result in an increase in the deferred purchase program receivable. The gross amount of receivables sold and total cash collected under this program since its inception was $38,547 and $37,885, respectively. Arconic services the customer receivables for the financial institutions at market rates; therefore, no servicing asset or liability was recorded.
Cash receipts from customer payments on sold receivables (which are cash receipts on the underlying trade receivables that have been previously sold in this program) as well as cash receipts and cash disbursements from draws and repayments under the program are presented as cash receipts from sold receivables within investing activities in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.

During the second quarter of 2018, the Company updated its three-year strategic plan and determined that there was a decline in the forecasted financial performance for the disks operations, an asset group within the Arconic Engines business unit. As such, the Company evaluated the recoverability of the long-lived assets by comparing their carrying value of approximately $515 to the estimated undiscounted net cash flows of the disk operations, resulting in an estimated fair value in excess of their


carrying value of approximately 13%; thus, there was no impairment. If the disks operations do not achieve the revised forecasted financial performance or if there are changes in any significant assumptions, a material non-cash impairment of long-lived assets may occur in future periods. These significant assumptions include sales growth, cost of raw materials, ramp up of additional production capacity, and working capital. A 1% decrease in the forecasted net cash flows would reduce the undiscounted cash flows by approximately $6. The Company also performed an interim impairment evaluation of goodwill for the Arconic Engines reporting unit as a result of the decline in the forecasted performance of the disks operations during the second quarter of 2018.  The estimated fair value of the reporting unit was substantially in excess of the carrying value; thus, there was no impairment of goodwill.

Public Debt – During the first quarter of 2018, the Company completed the early redemption of its remaining outstanding 5.72% Notes due in 2019, with aggregate principal amount of $500, for $518 in cash including accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of $19 in Interest expense in the accompanying Statement of Consolidated Operations for the first quarter of 2018 primarily for the premium paid on the early redemption of these notes in excess of their carrying value.
Credit Facilities. On July 25, 2014, Arconic entered into a Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement with a syndicate of lenders and issuers named therein, which provides for a senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). By an Extension Request and Amendment Letter dated as of June 5, 2015, the maturity date of the Credit Facility was extended to July 25, 2020. On September 16, 2016, Arconic entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement to permit the Separation Transaction and to amend certain terms of the Credit Agreement, including the replacement of the existing financial covenant with a leverage ratio and reduction of total commitments available from $4,000 to $3,000. On June 29, 2018, Arconic entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to amend and restate the Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement. The Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, is herein referred to as the “Credit Agreement.”
The Credit Agreement provides a $3,000 Credit Facility, the proceeds of which are to be used to provide working capital or for other general corporate purposes of Arconic. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, Arconic may from time to time request increases in lender commitments under the Credit Facility, not to exceed $500 in aggregate principal amount, and may also request the issuance of letters of credit, subject to a letter of credit sublimit of $1,000 of the Credit Facility. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Arconic shall not permit the ratio of Consolidated Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the period of the four fiscal quarters most recently ended, to be greater than 4.50 to 1.00, which maximum level will step down successively to 4.00 to 1.00 on December 31, 2018, and to 3.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2019 and thereafter.


The Credit Agreement includes additional covenants, including, among others, (a) limitations on Arconic’s ability to incur liens securing indebtedness for borrowed money, (b) limitations on Arconic’s ability to consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, and (c) limitations on Arconic’s ability to change the nature of its business. As of June 30, 2018, Arconic was in compliance with all such covenants.
The Credit Facility matures on June 29, 2023, unless extended or earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Arconic may make two one-year extension requests during the term of the Credit Facility, subject to the lender consent requirements set forth in the Credit Agreement. Under the provisions of the Credit Agreement, Arconic will pay a fee of 0.25% per annum (based on Arconic’s long-term debt ratings as of June 30, 2018) of the total commitment to maintain the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility is unsecured and amounts payable under it will rank pari passu with all other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness of Arconic. Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be denominated in U.S. dollars or euros. Loans will bear interest at a base rate or a rate equal to LIBOR, plus, in each case, an applicable margin based on the credit ratings of Arconic’s outstanding senior unsecured long-term debt. The applicable margin on base rate loans and LIBOR loans will be 0.50% and 1.50% per annum, respectively, based on Arconic’s long-term debt ratings as of June 30, 2018. Loans may be prepaid without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage costs.
The obligation of Arconic to pay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” as defined in the Credit Agreement. Such Events of Default include, among others, (a) non-payment of obligations; (b) breach of any representation or warranty in any material respect; (c) non-performance of covenants and obligations; (d) with respect to other indebtedness in a principal amount in excess of $100 million, a default thereunder that causes such indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity or a default in the payment at maturity of any principal of such indebtedness; (e) the bankruptcy or insolvency of Arconic; and (f) a change in control of Arconic.
There were no amounts outstanding at June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017, and no amounts were borrowed during 2018 or 2017 under the Credit Facility.
In addition to the Credit Agreement above, Arconic has a number of other credit agreements that provide a combined borrowing capacity of $715 as of June 30, 2018, of which $350 is due to expire in 2018 and $365 is due to expire in 2019. The purpose of any borrowings under these credit arrangements is to provide for working capital requirements and for other general corporate purposes. The covenants contained in all these arrangements are the same as the Credit Agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, Arconic borrowed and repaid $300 and $300, respectively, under these other credit facilities. The weighted-average interest rate and weighted-average days outstanding during the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018 were 3.3% and 70 days and 3.2% and 65 days, respectively.
O. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values of Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Derivatives, Noncurrent receivables and Short-term debt included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximate fair values. The Company holds exchange-traded fixed income securities which are considered available-for-sale securities which are carried at fair value which is based on quoted market prices.
The following table summarizes Arconic’s financial liabilities that were not carried at fair value at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

The fair value of Long-term debt, less amount due within one year was based on quoted market prices for public debt and on interest rates that are currently available to Arconic for issuance of debt with similar terms and maturities for non-public debt. The fair value amounts for all Long-term debt were classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.


P. Acquisitions and Divestitures
In March 2017, Arconic completed the sale of its Fusina, Italy rolling mill to Slim Aluminium. While owned by Arconic, the operating results and assets and liabilities of the Fusina, Italy rolling mill were included in the Global Rolled Products segment. As part of the transaction, Arconic injected $10 of cash into the business and provided a third-party guarantee with a fair value of $5 related to Slim Aluminium’s environmental remediation. The Company recorded a loss on the sale of $60, which was recorded in Restructuring and other charges (see Note D)E) on the Statement of Consolidated Operations.Operations in the first quarter of 2017. The rolling mill generated third-party sales of approximately $37 and $72 forin thesix-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. first quarter of 2017. At the time of the divestiture, the rolling mill had approximately 312 employees.

G. Separation Transaction and Discontinued Operations

On November 1, 2016,April 2, 2018, Arconic completed the Separation Transaction. Alcoa Inc., which wasre-named Arconic Inc., continuedsale of its Latin America extrusions business to owna subsidiary of Hydro Extruded Solutions AS for $5 in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments that are not expected to be significant. The sales price approximates the Engineered Products and Solutions,carrying value of the Global Rolled Products (except fornet assets sold on the Warrick, IN rolling operations andclosing date, following the equity interestcharge of $41 recognized in the rolling mill atfourth quarter of 2017 related to the joint venturenon-cash impairment of the net book value of the business. The operating results and assets and liabilities of the business were included in Saudi Arabia), and the Transportation and Construction Solutions segments. Alcoa Corporation included the Alumina and Primary Metals segments and the Warrick, IN rolling operations and equity interestsegment. This business generated sales of approximately $30 in the rolling mill at the joint venture in Saudi Arabia, both of which were formerly part of Arconic’s Global Rolled Products segment. The results of operations of Alcoa Corporation for the second quarter of 2017, and $25 and $56 in the six months ended June 30, 2016 are presented as discontinued operations in the Statement of Consolidated Operations.

Arconic completed the Separation Transaction by distribution on November 1, 2016 of 80.1% of the outstanding common stock of Alcoa Corporation to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 20, 2016. Arconic retained 19.9% of the Alcoa Corporation common stock (36,311,767 shares).

In February2018 and 2017, the Company sold 23,353,000 shares of Alcoa Corporation common stock at $38.03 per share, which resulted in cash proceeds of $888 which were recorded in Sale of investments within Investing Activities in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows and a gain of $351, which was recorded in Other income, net in the accompanying Statement of Consolidated Operations.

In April and May 2017, the Company acquired a portion of its outstanding notes held by two investment banks (the “Investment Banks”) in exchange for cash and the Company’s remaining 12,958,767 Alcoa Corporation shares (valued at $35.91 per share) (the “Debt-for-Equity Exchange”) (See Note L). A gain of $167 on theDebt-for-Equity Exchange was recorded in Other income, net in the accompanying Statement of Consolidated Operations. The share exchange had no impact on the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.

The Company had recorded the retained interest as a cost method investment in Investment in common stock of Alcoa Corporation in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair value of Arconic’s retained interest in Alcoa Corporation was $0 and $1,020 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair value was based on the closing stock price of Alcoa Corporation as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016 multiplied by the number of shares of Alcoa Corporation common stock owned by the Company at those respective dates. As of May 4, 2017, the Company no longer maintains a retained interest in Alcoa Corporation common stock.

In connection with the Separation Transaction, on October 31, 2016, Arconic and Alcoa Corporation entered into a Toll Processing and Services Agreement (the “Toll Processing Agreement”) pursuant to which Arconic provides can body stock from its Tennessee operations to Alcoa Corporation’s Warrick, Indiana rolling mill. Aluminum for the can body stock is supplied by Alcoa Corporation. The Toll Processing Agreement expires on December 31, 2018, unless sooner terminated by the parties.

Q. Contingencies and Commitments

Contingencies

Environmental Matters

Arconic participates in environmental assessments and cleanups at more than 100 locations. These include owned or operating facilities and adjoining properties, previously owned or operating facilities and adjoining properties, and waste sites, including Superfund (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA)) sites.

A liability is recorded for environmental remediation when a cleanup program becomes probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. As assessments and cleanups proceed, the liability is adjusted based on progress made in determining the extent of remedial actions and related costs. The liability can change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, and technological changes, among others.

Arconic’s remediation reserve balance was $301$287 at June 30, 20172018 and $308$294 at December 31, 20162017 (of which $42$51 and $48,$41, respectively, was classified as a current liability), and reflects the most probable costs to remediate identified environmental conditions for which costs can be reasonably estimated.

Payments related to remediation expenses applied against the reserve were $5 and $7$8 in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017,2018, respectively. This amount includes expenditures currently mandated, as well as those not required by any regulatory authority or third party.

17


Included in annual operating expenses are the recurring costs of managing hazardous substances and environmental programs. These costs are estimated to be approximately 1% or less of cost of goods sold.

The following discussion provides details regarding the current status of certainthe most significant remediation reserves related to a current or former Arconic sites.

site.

Massena West, NY—Arconic has an ongoing remediation project related to the Grasse River, which is adjacent to Arconic’s Massena plant site. Many years ago, it was determined that sediments and fish in the river contain varying levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The project, which was selected by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in a Record of Decision issued in April 2013, is aimed at capping PCB contaminated sediments with concentration in excess of one part per million in the main channel of the river and dredging PCB contaminated sediments in the near-shore areas where total PCBs exceed one part per million. At June 30, 20172018 and December 31, 2016,2017, the reserve balance associated with this matter was $224$211 and $228,$215, respectively. Arconic is in the planning and design phase of the project, which is expected to be completed in 2017.2018. Following that,the submittal of the final design and EPA approval, the actual remediation fieldwork is expected to commence and take approximately four years. The majority of the project funding is expected to be spentincurred between 20172018 and 2021.

Tax

Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement entered into between Arconic and Alcoa Corporation in connection with the Separation Transaction,separation transaction with Alcoa Corporation, Arconic shares responsibility with Alcoa Corporation, and Alcoa Corporation has agreed to partially indemnify Arconic for 49% of the ultimate liability, with respect to the following matter.



As previously reported, in September 2010,July 2013, following a Spanish corporate income tax audit covering the 20032006 through 20052009 tax years, an assessment was received as a result of Spain’s tax authoritiesmainly disallowing certain interest deductions claimed by a Spanish consolidated tax group owned by the Company. An appeal of thisThe assessment in Spain’s Central Tax Administrative Court by the Company was denied in October 2013.$151 (€131), including interest. In DecemberAugust 2013, the Company filed an appeal of the assessment in Spain’s National Court.

Additionally, following a corporate income tax audit of the same Spanish tax group for the 2006 through 2009 tax years, Spain’s tax authorities issued an assessment in July 2013 similarly disallowing certain interest deductions. In August 2013, Arconic filed an appeal of this second assessment in Spain’s Central Tax Administrative Court, which was denied in January 2015. Arconic filed another appeal of this second assessment in Spain’s National Court in March 2015.

2015 which was denied in July 2018. The combined assessments, remeasuredCompany is preparing to petition the Supreme Court of Spain to review the National Court’s decision. If the petition is accepted, the Supreme Court will review the assessment on its merits and render a final decision. The National Court’s decision requires the assessment for athe 2006 through 2009 tax rate change enactedyears to be reissued to take into account the outcome of the 2003 to 2005 audit which was closed in November 2014, total $2832017. The Company estimates the revised assessment to be $175 (€248)152), including interest. On January 16, 2017, Spain’s National Court issued a decision in favor of the Company related to the assessment received in September 2010. The Spanish Tax Administration did not file an appeal within the applicable period. A further decision is expected on the application of this ruling to the overall assessment. Spain’s National Court has not yet rendered a decision related to the assessment received in July 2013.

The Company believes it has meritorious arguments to support its tax position and intends to vigorously litigate the assessments through Spain’s court system. However, inIn the event the Company is unsuccessful in appealing the assessment to the Supreme Court of Spain, a portion of the assessmentsassessment may be offset with existing net operating losses and tax credits available to the Spanish consolidated tax group, which would be shared between Arconicthe Company and Alcoa Corporation as provided for in the Tax Matters AgreementAgreement. The Company will reassess the recognition and measurement of tax benefits related to the Separation Transaction. uncertain tax positions in the 2006 to 2009 tax years in the third quarter of 2018. The potential impact of the revised assessment on the Provision for income taxes could be a charge of up to approximately $59 (€51) which would be recognized in the third quarter of 2018. As stated above, Alcoa Corporation is responsible for 49% of the net liability.

Additionally, while the tax years 2010 through 2013 are closed to audit, it is possible that the Company may receive similar assessments for tax years subsequent to 2009. At this time, the Company2013. Any potential assessment for an individual tax year is unablenot expected to reasonably predict an outcome for this matter.

Reynobond PE

Regulatory investigations are being conducted in connection with the fatal Grenfell Tower fire in London, UK on June 13, 2017. A French subsidiary of Arconic, Arconic Architectural Products SAS (AAP SAS), supplied a product, Reynobond PE, to its customer, a cladding system fabricator, which used the product as one component of the overall cladding system on Grenfell Tower. The fabricator supplied its portion of the cladding systembe material to the façade installer, who then completed and installed the system under the direction of the general contractor. NeitherCompany’s consolidated operations.

Reynobond PE
Howard v. Arconic nor AAP SAS was involved in the design or installation of the system used at the Tower, nor did it haveInc. et al.  As previously reported, a role in any other aspect of the building’s refurbishment or original design.

In July 2017, three purported class action complaints were filed against Arconic and certain officers, directors and/or other parties, alleging that, in light ofcomplaint related to the Grenfell Tower fire was filed on August 11, 2017 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania against Arconic Inc. and Klaus Kleinfeld. A related purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on August 25, 2017, under the caption Sullivan v. Arconic Inc. et al., against Arconic Inc., two former Arconic executives, several current and former Arconic directors, and banks that acted as underwriters for Arconic’s September 18, 2014 preferred stock offering (the “Preferred Offering”). The plaintiff in Sullivan had previously filed a purported class action against the same defendants on July 18, 2017 in the Southern District of New York and, on August 25, 2017, voluntarily dismissed that action without prejudice. On February 7, 2018, on motion from certain Company filings withputative class members, the Securities court consolidated Howard and Exchange CommissionSullivan, closed Sullivan, and appointed lead plaintiffs in the consolidated case. On April 9, 2018, the lead plaintiffs in the consolidated purported class action filed a consolidated amended complaint. The consolidated amended complaint alleges that the registration statement for the Preferred Offering contained false and misleading disclosuresstatements and omissions in violationomitted to state material information, including by allegedly failing to disclose material uncertainties and trends resulting from sales of Reynobond PE for unsafe uses and by allegedly expressing a belief that appropriate risk management and compliance programs had been adopted while concealing the risks posed by Reynobond PE sales. The consolidated amended complaint also alleges that between November 4, 2013 and June 23, 2017 Arconic and Kleinfeld made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information about the Company’s commitment to safety, business and financial prospects, and the risks of the federal securities laws.

The consolidated amended complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages and an award of attorney and expert fees and expenses. On June 8, 2018, all defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint for failure to state a claim. Briefing on that motion remains ongoing.

Raul v. Albaugh, et al. On June 22, 2018, a derivative complaint was filed nominally on behalf of Arconic by a purported Arconic shareholder against all current members of Arconic’s Board of Directors, Klaus Kleinfeld and Ken Giacobbe, naming Arconic as a nominal defendant, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint raises similar allegations as the consolidated amended complaint in Howard, as well as allegations that the defendants improperly authorized the sale of Reynobond PE for unsafe uses, and asserts claims under Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Delaware state law. On July 13, 2018, the parties filed a stipulation agreeing to stay this case until the final resolution of the Howard case, the Grenfell Tower public inquiry in London, and the investigation by the London Metropolitan Police Service and on June 23, 2018, the Court approved the stay.
While the Company believes that these cases are without merit and intends to challenge them vigorously, there can be no assurances regarding the ultimate resolution of these matters. Given the preliminary nature of these matters and the uncertainty of litigation, the Company cannot reasonably estimate at this time the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or the possible loss or range of losses in the event of an unfavorable outcome.

The Board of Directors has also received letters, purportedly sent on behalf of shareholders, reciting allegations similar to those made in the federal court lawsuits and demanding that the Board authorize the Company to initiate litigation against members of management, the Board and others. The Board of Directors has



appointed a Special Litigation Committee of the Board to review and make recommendations to the Board regarding the appropriate course of action with respect to these shareholder demand letters. The Special Litigation Committee and the Board are continuing to consider the appropriate responses to the shareholder demand letters in view of developments in proceedings concerning the Grenfell Tower fire. In addition, the Company has settled lawsuits with another shareholder that had been pending in state court in New York and federal court in Pennsylvania concerning the shareholder’s demand to inspect certain of the Company’s books and records related to the Grenfell Tower fire and Reynobond PE.
Other

In addition to the matters discussed above, various other lawsuits, claims, and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against Arconic, including those pertaining to environmental, product liability, safety and health, employment, and tax matters. While the amounts claimed in these other matters may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot currently be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that the Company’s liquidity or results of operations in a period could be materially affected by one or more of these other matters. However, based on facts currently available, management believes that the disposition of these other matters that are pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

I. Segment Information

Arconic is a producer of multi-material products including sheet, plate, precision castings, forgings, rolled rings, extrusions, wheels and fasteners. Arconic’s products are used worldwide in transportation (including aerospace, automotive, truck, trailer, rail, and shipping), packaging, building and construction, oil and gas, defense, and industrial applications. Arconic’s segments are organized by product on a worldwide basis. In the first quarter of 2017, the Company changed its primary measure of segment performance fromAfter-tax operating income (ATOI) to Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Segment performance under Arconic’s management reporting system is evaluated based on a number of factors; however, the primary measure of performance is Adjusted EBITDA. Arconic’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA is net margin plus anadd-back for depreciation and amortization and special items. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation and amortization. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Items required to reconcile Combined segment adjusted EBITDA to Net income attributable to Arconic include: the Provision for depreciation and amortization; Restructuring and other charges; the impact of LIFO inventory accounting; metal price lag (the timing difference created when the average price of metal sold differs from the average cost of the metal when purchased by the respective segment - generally, when the price of metal increases, metal price lag is favorable, and when the price of metal decreases, metal price lag is unfavorable); corporate expense (general administrative and selling expenses of operating the corporate headquarters and other global administrative facilities and corporate research and development expenses); other items, including intersegment profit eliminations; Other income, net; Interest expense; Income tax expense; and the results of discontinued operations. Prior period information has been recast to conform to current year presentation.

J. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) amounts are computed by dividing earnings, after the deduction of preferred stock dividends declared, by the average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS amounts assume the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive share equivalents outstanding.

The number of shares and per share amounts for all periods presented below have been updated to reflect the Reverse Stock Split (see Note A).

Additionally, options to purchase 7 million shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $28.85 and options to purchase 8 million shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $38.18 were outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because their effect was anti-dilutive as the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market price of Arconic’s common stock.

K. Receivables

Arconic has an arrangement with three financial institutions to sell certain customer receivables without recourse on a revolving basis. The sale of such receivables is completed using a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which is a consolidated subsidiary of Arconic. This arrangement provides for minimum funding of $200 up to a maximum of $400 for receivables sold. On March 30, 2012, Arconic initially sold $304 of customer receivables in exchange for $50 cash and $254 of deferred purchase program under the arrangement. Arconic has received additional net cash funding of $300 ($2,058 in draws and $1,758 in repayments) since the program’s inception, including net cash draws totaling $0 ($300 in draws and $300 in repayments) in the six months ended June 30, 2017.

23


As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the deferred purchase program receivable was $222 and $83, respectively, which was included in Other receivables on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. The deferred purchase program receivable is reduced as collections of the underlying receivables occur; however, as this is a revolving program, the sale of new receivables will result in an increase in the deferred purchase program receivable. The net change in the deferred purchase program receivable was reflected in the (Increase) in receivables line item on the accompanying Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. This activity is reflected as an operating cash flow because the related customer receivables are the result of an operating activity with an insignificant, short-term interest rate risk.

The gross amount of receivables sold and total cash collected under this program since its inception was $32,629 and $32,057, respectively. Arconic services the customer receivables for the financial institutions at market rates; therefore, no servicing asset or liability was recorded.

Public Debt – In April 2017, the Company announced three separate cash tender offers by the Investment Banks for the purchase of the Company’s 6.50% Bonds due 2018 (the “6.50% Bonds”), 6.75% Notes due 2018 (the “6.75% Notes”), and 5.72% Notes due 2019 (the “5.72% Notes”), up to a maximum purchase amount of $1,000 aggregate principal amount of notes, subject to certain conditions.

The Investment Banks purchased notes totaling $805 aggregate principal amount, including $150 aggregate principal amount of 6.50% Bonds, $405 aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes, and $250 aggregate principal amount of $5.72% Notes.

The Company agreed to acquire the notes from the Investment Banks for $409 in cash plus its remaining investment in Alcoa Corporation common stock (12,958,767 shares valued at $35.91 per share) for total consideration of $874 including accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recorded a charge of $58 ($27 in cash) primarily for the premium for the early redemption of the notes, a benefit of $8 for the proceeds of a related interest rate swap agreement, and a charge of $2 for legal fees associated with the transaction in Interest expense, and recorded a gain of $167 in Other income, net on theDebt-for-Equity Exchange.

On June 19, 2017, the Company completed the early redemption of its remaining outstanding 6.50% Bonds, with aggregate principal amount of $100, and its remaining outstanding 6.75% Notes, with aggregate principal amount of $345, for $479 in cash including accrued and unpaid interest. As a result of the early redemption of the 6.50% Bonds and 6.75% Notes, the Company recorded a charge of $24 in Interest expense for the premium paid for the early redemption of these notes in excess of their carrying value.

In conjunction with the Separation Transaction, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation approved management’s plan to separate the Alcoa Inc. pension plans between Arconic Inc. and Alcoa Corporation. The plan stipulates that Arconic will make cash contributions over a period of 30 months to its two largest pension plans. Payments are expected to be made in three increments of no less than $50 each ($150 total) over this30-month period. The first payment of $50 was made on April 18, 2017.

N. Financial Instruments

Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (i) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (ii) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The carrying values and fair values of Arconic’s financial instruments were as follows:

The following methods were used to estimate the fair values of financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, and Short-term borrowings.The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of the instruments. The fair value amounts for Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash were classified in Level 1, and Short-term borrowings were classified in Level 2.

Derivatives.The fair value of derivative contracts classified as Level 1 was based on identical unrestricted assets and liabilities. The fair value of derivative contracts classified as Level 2 was based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g. interest rates).

Noncurrent receivables.The fair value of noncurrent receivables was based on anticipated cash flows, which approximates carrying value, and was classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Available-for-sale securities.The fair value of such securities was based on quoted market prices. These financial instruments consist of exchange-traded fixed income and equity securities, which are carried at fair value and were classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Investment in common stock of Alcoa Corporation.The fair value was based on the closing stock price of Alcoa Corporation on the New York Stock Exchange at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 multiplied by the number of shares of Alcoa Corporation common stock owned by Arconic at those dates. This investment was classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company disposed of its remaining investment in Alcoa Corporation common stock in the second quarter of 2017.

Contingent payment related to an acquisition. The fair value was based on the net present value of expected future cash flows and was classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Long-term debt due within one year and Long-term debt, less amount due within one year. The fair value was based on quoted market prices for public debt and on interest rates that are currently available to Arconic for issuance of debt with similar terms and maturities fornon-public debt. The fair value amounts for all Long-term debt were classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The decrease2017, due to performance shortfalls in both periods was principally the result of a lower marginrings and disks operations, unfavorable product mix, and ramp up costs ($9 and $29 in the second quarter and six months, respectively) associated with increasing production volumesnegative impact of new aerospace engine parts such as higher scrap rates, production inefficiencies, new process development and employee training, and lower product pricing,a physical inventory adjustment of $23, partially offset by net cost savings and higherthe strength in aerospace engine volumes.

In 2017,2018, demand in the commercial aerospace end market is expected to remain strong, driven by theramp-up of new aerospace engine platforms, somewhat offset by lower product pricing, continued customer destocking, and engineramp-up challenges.platforms. Demand in the defense end market is expected to grow due to the continuingramp-up of certain aerospace programs.programs, while declines in the industrial gas turbine market are likely to continue. Net cost savings are anticipated despite higher input costs, and pricing pressures and challenges at the rings and disks operations are expected to continue.

Russia Sanctions
On April 6, 2018, the U.S. Administration announced new sanctions against Russian “oligarchs” and extended those sanctions to companies that are majority-owned or substantively controlled by those oligarchs. These sanctions block U.S. persons - both individuals and companies - from engaging in transactions with listed oligarchs and their companies.  These new sanctions extend to UC Rusal PLC (“Rusal”), which supplies primary aluminum to Arconic in Europe, the impact of the ramp-downUnited States, and Toll Processing Agreement with Alcoa Corporation relating to the Company’s North America packaging businessSamara plant in Tennessee.

We anticipate that the price of aluminum will continue to fluctuate based upon supply/demand balance and the supply uncertainty created by the sanctions.

OCWD seeks to recover the cost of aquifer remediation and attorney’s fees. Trial onstatutory, non-jury claims commenced on February 10, 2012. On October 29, 2013, the court issued its final Statement of Decision in favor of Arconic and the other Phase I trial defendants dismissing the statutory law liability claims. On June 20, 2014, following the full briefing by the parties, the trial court entered final judgment in favor of Arconic and the other trial defendants on the remaining tort claims. On August 18, 2014, the OCWD appealed the dismissal of the statutory law claims and common law claims (except for negligence). On March 29, 2017, oral argument on the appeal took place before a panel of three California Court of Appeal justices. On June 1, 2017, the Court of Appeal upheld the trial court’s decision in favor of Arconic on all claims. The OCWD did not file a petition for review to the California Supreme Court. On July 12, 2017, Northrop filed a petition for review by the Supreme Court of the State of California. Northrop’s petition does not implicate the aspects of the Court of Appeal’s opinion upholding the trial court’s judgment in Arconic’s favor, although it is possible that the OCWD may respond to Northrop’s petition in a manner which could potentially implicate the rulings in Arconic’s favor.

On June 21, 2017, the UK Environment Agency (the “Agency”) confirmed that it will prosecute Firth Rixson Metals Limited in Chesterfield (UK) Magistrates Court in relation to an environmental incident that took place on April 22, 2015 at the Company’s Glossop UK site. It is alleged that an acid scrubber unit at the site caused a leak into the local river resulting in environmental damage, including the death of approximately 200 fish. Arconic was not successful in persuading the Agency to drop the prosecution in lieu of an enforcement undertaking (a civil remedy) despite the fact that cyanide, a compound not used on the site, had been identified in the samples of water taken at the time. A court hearing has been scheduled for September 13, 2017. Given that this proceeding is in its preliminary stage, the Company is unable to reasonably predict an outcome or to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss.

Reynobond PE

On June 13, 2017, the Grenfell Tower in London, UK caught fire resulting in fatalities, injuries and damage. A French subsidiary of Arconic, Arconic Architectural Products SAS (AAP SAS), supplied a product, Reynobond PE to its customer, a cladding system fabricator, which used the product as one componentand Tax sections of the overall cladding system on Grenfell Tower. The fabricator supplied its portion of the cladding system to the façade installer, who then completed and installed the system under the direction of the general contractor. Neither Arconic nor AAP SAS was involved in the design or installation of the system used at the Tower, nor did it have a role in any other aspect of the building’s refurbishment or original design. Regulatory investigations are being conducted, including a criminal investigation by the London Metro Police, a public inquiry by the British government and a consumer protection inquiry by a French public authority. No private litigation has yet been filed in the UK or France.

Brave v. Arconic Inc., Kenneth J. Giacobbe and Klaus Kleinfeld. A purported class action complaint was filed on July 13, 2017 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Arconic Inc., Kenneth J. Giacobbe and Klaus Kleinfeld. The complaint alleges that the statements in Arconic’s 201610-K about management’s recognition of its responsibility to conduct the Company’s affairs according to the highest standards of personal and corporate conduct and within the laws of the host countries in which it operates, and its failure to disclose that Arconic knowingly supplied highly flammable Reynobond PE cladding panels for use in construction that significantly increased the risk of property damage, injury and death, were false and misleading in violation of the federal securities laws and artificially inflated the prices of Arconic’s securities. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages and an award of attorney and expert fees and expenses.

Tripson v. Arconic Inc. and Klaus Kleinfeld. A purported class action complaint was filed on July 14, 2017 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Arconic Inc. and Klaus Kleinfeld. The complaint alleges that statements in Arconic’s 2012-201610-Ks,2012-15 Annual Reports and the 2016 Annual Highlights Report about management’s recognition of its responsibility to conduct the Company’s affairs according to the highest standards of personal and corporate conduct and within the laws of the host countries in which it operates, and its failure to disclose that Arconic knowingly supplied highly flammable Reynobond PE cladding panels for use in construction that significantly increased the risk of property damage, injury and death, were false and misleading in violation of the federal securities laws and artificially inflated the prices of Arconic’s securities. The complaint also alleges that Arconic was motivated to conceal its potential liability to improve its credit ratings and enhance its ability to raise capital. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages and equitable relief and an award of attorney and expert fees and expenses.

Sullivan v. Arconic Inc. et al. A purported class action complaint was filed on July 18, 2017 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Arconic Inc., as well as two former Arconic executives and several current and former Arconic directors, and banks that acted as underwriters for Arconic’s September 18, 2014 preferred stock offering. The complaint alleges that statements in the registration statement for Arconic’s September 18, 2014 preferred stock offering were false and misleading in light of the subsequent Grenfell Tower fire. The complaint also alleges that Arconic’s failure to disclose at the time of the offering that it was obtaining significant profits through sales that exposed it to substantial liability violated the federal securities laws. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory and recissory damages and an award of attorney and expert fees and expenses.

While the Company believes that these cases are without merit and intends to challenge them vigorously, there can be no assurances regarding the ultimate resolution of these matters. Given the preliminary nature of these matters and the uncertainty of litigation, the Company cannot reasonably estimate at this time the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or the possible loss or range of losses in the event of an unfavorable outcome.

Other Matters

As previously reported, Arconic Inc. and certain officers and directors are named as defendants in a lawsuit filed on April 18, 2017 in Pennsylvania state court, the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas, by plaintiff shareholder Arthur Ehrlich on behalf of himself and other similarly situated shareholders alleging breach of fiduciary duty related to Arconic’s April 12, 2017 filing of a Form8-K in which the Company disclosed that it had given notice of a “potential change in control” under the terms of a rabbi trust agreement. Plaintiff alleges that this statement constitutes an improper attempt to coerce shareholders into voting for incumbent directors. After a hearing on May 1, 2017, the Court denied plaintiff’s request for a preliminary injunction. On May 18, 2017, plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice as to Ehrlich, but without prejudice as it relates to other potential named plaintiffs.    No further reports will be made on this matter.

As previously reported, Arconic Inc. and certain officers and directors are named as defendants in a lawsuit filed on April 19, 2017 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by plaintiff City of Atlanta Firefighters Pension Fund alleging violations of the Exchange Act related to Arconic’s April 12, 2017 filing of a Form8-K in which the Company disclosed that it had given notice of a “potential change in control” under the terms of a rabbi trust agreement. Plaintiff alleges that this statement constitutes an improper attempt to coerce shareholders into voting for incumbent directors. After a hearing on May 10, 2017, the Court denied plaintiff’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction. On May 24, 2017, plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the lawsuit without prejudice. No further reports will be made on this matter.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

Arconic’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be impacted by a number of factors. In addition to the factors discussed elsewhere in this report, in Part I, Item 1A of Arconic’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and in other reports filed by Arconic with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the following risks and uncertainties, updated from and in addition to those in the Form10-K, could materially harm its business, financial condition or results of operations, including causing Arconic’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to Arconic or that Arconic currently deems immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company in future periods.

Arconic could encounter manufacturing difficulties or other issues that impact product performance, quality or safety, which could affect Arconic’s reputation, business and financial statements.

The manufacture of many of Arconic’s products is a highly exacting and complex process. Problems may arise during manufacturing for a variety of reasons, including equipment malfunction, failure to follow specific protocols and procedures, including those related to quality, problems with raw materials, supply chain interruptions, natural disasters, labor unrest and environmental factors. Such problems could have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to fulfill orders or on product performance. Product manufacturing or performance issues could result in recalls, customer penalties, contract cancellation and product liability exposure, including if any of our products are defective or are used in a manner that results in injuries or other damages. Because of approval and license requirements applicable to manufacturers and/or their suppliers, alternatives to mitigate manufacturing disruptions may not be readily available to the Company or its customers. Accordingly, manufacturing problems, product defects or other risks associated with our products, including their use or application, could result in significant costs to and liability for Arconic, including the payment of potentially substantial monetary damages, fines or penalties, as well as negative publicity and damage to the Company’s reputation, which could adversely impact product demand and customer relationships.

Arconic may be exposed to significant legal proceedings, investigations or changes in U.S. federal, state or foreign law, regulation or policy.

Arconic’s results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be affected by new or increasingly stringent laws, regulatory requirements or interpretations, or outcomes of significant legal proceedings or investigations adverse to Arconic. The Company may experience a change in effective tax rates or become subject to unexpected or rising costs associated with business operations or provision of health or welfare benefits to employees due to changes in laws, regulations or policies. The Company is also subject to a variety of legal and regulatory compliance risks associated with its business and products. These risks include, among other things, potential claims relating to product liability (including personal injury, property loss or similar claims), health and safety, environmental matters, intellectual property rights, government contracts and taxes, as well as compliance with U.S. and foreign laws and regulations governing export, anti-bribery, competition, sales and trading practices, and the manufacture and sale of products. Arconic could be subject to fines, penalties, damages (in certain cases, treble damages), or suspension or debarment from government contracts.

Even if Arconic successfully defends against these types of claims, the Company could still be required to spend a substantial amount of money in connection with legal proceedings or investigations with respect to such claims; the Company’s management could be required to devote significant time, attention and operational resources responding to and defending against these claims; and Arconic’s reputation could suffer, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

While Arconic believes it has adopted appropriate risk management and compliance programs to address and reduce these risks, including insurance arrangements with respect to these risks, such measures may not provide adequate protection against liabilities that may arise. The global and diverse nature of Arconic’s operations means that these risks will continue to exist, and additional legal proceedings and contingencies may arise from time to time. In addition, various factors or developments can lead the Company to change current estimates of liabilities or make such

39


estimates for matters previously not susceptible of reasonable estimates, such as a significant judicial ruling or judgment, a significant settlement, significant regulatory developments or changes in applicable law. A future adverse ruling or settlement or unfavorable changes in laws, regulations or policies, or other contingencies that the Company cannot predict with certainty could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in a particular period. For additional information regarding the legal proceedings involving the Company, see the discussion in Part I, Item 3. (Legal Proceedings) of this report and in Note LQ to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II,I Item 8. (Financial Statements and Supplementary Data).

Arconic is subject to a broad range1 of product, health, safety and environmental laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates and may be exposed to substantial costs and liabilities associated with such laws and regulations.

Arconic’s operations worldwide are subject to numerous complex and increasingly stringent product, health, safety and environmental laws and regulations. The costs of complying with such laws and regulations, including participation in assessments and cleanups of sites, as well as internal voluntary programs, are significant and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future. Environmental laws may impose cleanup liability on owners and occupiers of contaminated property, including past or divested properties, regardless of whether the owners and occupiers caused the contamination or whether the activity that caused the contamination was lawful at the time it was conducted. Environmental matters for which Arconic may be liable may arise in the future at its present sites, where no problem is currently known, at previously owned sites, sites previously operated by the Company, sites owned by its predecessors or sites that it may acquire in the future. Compliance with product, health, safety and environmental laws and regulations may prove to be more limiting and costly than the Company anticipates. For example, if safety issues, whether real or perceived, arise in connection with any Arconic product, sales of such product could be halted or recalled. New data and information, including information about the ways in which the Company’s products are used, may lead the Company, regulatory authorities, government agencies or other entities or organizations to publish guidelines or recommendations, or impose restrictions, related to the manufacturing or use of the Company’s products. This could lead to reduced sales or market acceptance of the Company’s products. Arconic’s results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be affected by certain health, safety or environmental matters, including remediation costs and damages related to certain sites as well as other health and safety risks relating to its operations and products. Additionally, evolving regulatory standards and expectations can result in increased litigation and/or increased costs, all of which can have a material and adverse effect on earnings and cash flows.

Item 5.Other Information.

On July 31, 2017, Arconic entered into a separation agreement with Klaus Kleinfeld, the former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The separation agreement provides that, subject to Mr. Kleinfeld’snon-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and compliance with his obligations under the separation agreement, and in full satisfaction of Mr. Kleinfeld’s right to receive severance benefits, the Company will provide to Mr. Kleinfeld (a) a cash payment of $5,000,000, (b) continued life, accident and health benefits until the second anniversary of his employment termination date at no greaterafter-tax cost to Mr. Kleinfeld than theafter-tax cost to him as of immediately prior to his employment termination date, and (c) a prorated bonus for 2017 equal to the greater of (i) 37% of the annual bonus to which Mr. Kleinfeld would have been entitled had he remained employed through the end of 2017 and (ii) $1,000,000.

The separation agreement also contains a mutualnon-disparagement covenant, a mutual general release of claims and a cooperation covenant, as well as an acknowledgement by Mr. Kleinfeld that he continues to be bound by the restrictive covenants applicable to him under the Executive Severance Agreement between him and the Company dated December 8, 2008.

The foregoing description of the separation agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the separation agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 10(c).
