Segment Information
Segment Information	1. Segment Information The Company has four reportable segments based on its geographic locations: Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. These four segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations. Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the regions or to glass manufacturing are reported with Retained corporate costs and other. These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, and certain equity investments. Retained corporate costs and other also includes certain headquarters administrative and facilities costs and certain incentive compensation and other benefit plan costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reportable segments. The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs. The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. Financial information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows: Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Net sales: Europe $ $ $ $ North America Latin America Asia Pacific Reportable segment totals Other Net sales $ $ $ $ Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Segment operating profit: Europe $ $ $ $ North America Latin America Asia Pacific Reportable segment totals Items excluded from segment operating profit: Retained corporate costs and other Restructuring, asset impairment and other Strategic transaction costs Acquisition-related fair value inventory adjustments Interest expense, net Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes $ $ $ $ Financial information regarding the Company’s total assets is as follows: September 30, December 31, September 30, 2016 2015 2015 Total assets: Europe $ $ $ North America Latin America Asia Pacific Reportable segment totals Other Consolidated totals $ $ $

The remaining $6 million of this receivable is expected to be refunded to the Company within the next twelve months.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments	9 Months Ended

Derivative Instruments
Derivative Instruments	4. Derivative Instruments The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities which consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to value these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Commodity Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges In several regions, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows. In North America, the majority of its customer contracts contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to its customers. In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time. To limit the effects of fluctuations in cash flows resulting from these customer contracts, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements. In Asia Pacific, the Company implemented a hedging program in the first quarter of 2016, which included the execution of commodity forward contracts for certain contracted natural gas requirements. At September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had entered into commodity forward contracts covering approximately 12,400,000 MM BTUs and 6,300,000 MM BTUs, respectively. The Company accounts for the above forward contracts as cash flow hedges at September 30, 2016 and recognizes them on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as, and meets the required criteria for, a cash flow hedge is recorded in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners’ equity (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. An unrecognized gain of $2 million at September 30, 2016, an unrecognized loss of $4 million at December 31, 2015 and an unrecognized gain of $2 million at September 30 2015, respectively, related to the commodity forward contracts was included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings in the period when the commodity forward contracts expire. Any material portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is deemed to be ineffective is recognized in current earnings. The ineffectiveness related to these natural gas hedges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was not material. The effect of the commodity forward contracts on the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows: Amount of Gain Reclassified from Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI on Accumulated OCI into Income Commodity Forward Contracts (reported in cost of goods sold) (Effective Portion) (Effective Portion) 2016 2015 2016 2015 $ (1) $ 2 $ — $ 4 The effect of the commodity forward contracts on the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows: Amount of Gain Reclassified from Amount of Gain Recognized in OCI on Accumulated OCI into Income Commodity Forward Contracts (reported in cost of goods sold) (Effective Portion) (Effective Portion) 2016 2015 2016 2015 $ 2 $ 2 $ — $ 6 Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts and not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company may enter into short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The Company may also use foreign exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables, payables, and loans, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies. The Company records these short-term foreign exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in current earnings. At September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange and option agreements denominated in various currencies covering the equivalent of approximately $580 million and $600 million, respectively, related primarily to intercompany transactions and loans. The effect of the foreign exchange derivative contracts on the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows: Amount of Gain (Loss) Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts Foreign Exchange Contracts 2016 2015 Other expense $ 4 $ (4) The effect of the foreign exchange derivative contracts on the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows: Amount of Gain Location of Gain Recognized in Income on Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts Foreign Exchange Contracts 2016 2015 Other expense $ 6 $ 2 Balance Sheet Classification The Company records the fair values of derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as follows: (a) receivables if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity within one year, (b) deposits, receivables, and other assets if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity after one year, and (c) other accrued liabilities or other liabilities (current) if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity within one year. The following table shows the amount and classification (as noted above) of the Company’s derivatives at September 30, 2016, December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015: Fair Value Balance Sheet September 30, December 31, September 30, Location 2016 2015 2015 Asset derivatives: Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: Commodity forwards contracts a $ $ — $ — Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Foreign exchange derivative contracts a Total asset derivatives $ $ $ Liability derivatives: Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: Commodity forwards contracts c $ — $ $ Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Foreign exchange derivative contracts c Total liability derivatives $ $ $

The Company classified the significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets, which was not material, as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements. Asia Pacific Restructuring During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded charges of $1 million. These charges primarily represented other exit costs as part of the Company’s Asia Pacific Restructuring program. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded charges of $5 million. These charges primarily represented the write-down of assets as part of the Company’s Asia Pacific Restructuring program. The Company has recorded total cumulative charges of $221 million under this program. Other Restructuring Actions During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded charges of $18 million. These charges primarily represented employee costs, write-down of assets, and other exit costs of $14 million for a plant closure in the first quarter of 2016 in Latin America, $3 million related to a previous plant closure in North America and $1 million related to other restructuring actions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded charges of $35 million and $52 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, these charges primarily represented employee costs, write-down of assets, and other exit costs of $14 million for furnace closures in Latin America, $35 million of severance and other exit costs related to a plant closure in North America and $3 million related to other restructuring actions.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes
Income Taxes	7. Income Taxes The Company performs a quarterly review of the annual effective tax rate and makes changes if necessary based on new information or events. The estimated annual effective tax rate is forecasted quarterly using actual historical information and forward-looking estimates. The estimated annual effective tax rate may fluctuate due to changes in forecasted annual operating income; changes in the forecasted mix of earnings by country; changes to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (such changes would be recorded discretely in the quarter in which they occur); changes to actual or forecasted permanent book to tax differences (non-deductible expenses); impacts from future tax settlements with state, federal or foreign tax authorities (such changes would be recorded discretely in the quarter in which they occur); or impacts from tax law changes. To the extent such changes impact deferred tax assets/liabilities, these changes would generally be recorded discretely in the quarter in which they occur. Additionally, the annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. Federal tax rate of 35% primarily because of valuation allowances in some jurisdictions and varying non-U.S. tax rates.

The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Previous Agreement and the 7.375% senior notes due 2016. In connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015 (see Note 15), the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Agreement, which provided for additional incremental availability under the incremental dollar cap in the Agreement of up to $1,250 million. In addition, in connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition, on September 1, 2015, the Company entered into the First Incremental Amendment to the Agreement (the “Incremental Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company incurred $1,250 million of senior secured incremental term loan facilities, comprised of (i) a $675 million term loan A facility (the “incremental term loan A facility”) on substantially the same terms and conditions (including as to maturity) as the term loan A facility in the Agreement and (ii) a $575 million term loan B facility (the “incremental term loan B facility”) maturing seven years after the closing of the Vitro Acquisition using its incremental capacity under the Agreement. On February 3, 2016, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Agreement which provided for an increase in the maximum Total Leverage Ratio (which is calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Agreement) for purposes of the financial covenant in the Agreement to 5.0x for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016, 4.5x for the fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017, and stepping down to 4.0x for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 and each fiscal quarter thereafter. At September 30, 2016, the Agreement, as amended through Amendment No. 4 (the “Amended Agreement”), includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $1,575 million term loan A facility ($1,516 million net of debt issuance costs), and a €279 million term loan A facility ($303 million net of debt issuance costs), each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020. The Amended Agreement also includes a $575 million term loan B facility ($558 million net of debt issuance costs) with a final maturity date of September 1, 2022. At September 30, 2016, the Company had unused credit of $880 million available under the Amended Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Amended Agreement at September 30, 2016 was 2.57%. The Amended Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations. The Amended Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Total Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company as of the last day of a fiscal quarter not to exceed the maximum levels set forth in Amendment No. 4 (as more particularly described above). The Total Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Total Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum. Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Amended Agreement. In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Amended Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. If an event of default occurs under the Amended Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Amended Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. As of September 30, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Amended Agreement. In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Amended Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions. The interest rates on borrowings under the Amended Agreement are, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Amended Agreement, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the term loan A facility and the revolving credit facility is linked to the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio and ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans. In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The applicable margin for the term loan B facility is 2.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and 1.75% for Base Rate loans. The incremental term loan B facility is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Borrowings under the Amended Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate and certain other excluded assets, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity investments in certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.

Contingencies
Contingencies	9. Contingencies Asbestos The Company is a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging bodily injury and death as a result of exposure to asbestos. From 1948 to 1958, one of the Company's former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based insulation material containing asbestos. The Company sold its insulation business unit at the end of April 1958. The typical asbestos personal injury lawsuit alleges various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seeks compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages in various amounts (herein referred to as "asbestos claims"). As of September 30, 2016, the Company has determined that it is a named defendant in asbestos lawsuits and claims involving approximately 1,600 plaintiffs and claimants. Based on an analysis of the lawsuits pending as of December 31, 2015, approximately 82% of plaintiffs either do not specify the monetary damages sought, or in the case of court filings, claim an amount sufficient to invoke the jurisdictional minimum of the trial court. Approximately 11% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages above the jurisdictional minimum up to, and including, $15 million or less, and 7% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages greater than $15 million but less than or equal to $100 million. As indicated by the foregoing summary, current pleading practice permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages. The Company’s experience resolving hundreds of thousands of asbestos claims and lawsuits over an extended period demonstrates that the monetary relief alleged in a complaint bears little relevance to a claim’s merits or disposition value. Rather, the amount potentially recoverable is determined by such factors as the type and severity of the plaintiff’s asbestos disease, the plaintiff’s medical history and exposure to other disease-causing agents, the product identification evidence against the Company and other co-defendants, the defenses available to the Company and other co-defendants, the specific jurisdiction in which the claim is made, and the plaintiff’s firm representing the claimant. In addition to the pending claims set forth above, the Company has claims-handling agreements in place with many plaintiffs’ counsel throughout the country. These agreements require evaluation and negotiation regarding whether particular claimants qualify under the criteria established by such agreements. The criteria for such claims include verification of a compensable illness and a reasonable probability of exposure to a product manufactured by the Company's former business unit during its manufacturing period ending in 1958. The Company has also been a defendant in other asbestos-related lawsuits or claims involving maritime workers, medical monitoring claimants, co-defendants and property damage claimants. Based upon its past experience, the Company believes that these categories of lawsuits and claims will not involve any material liability and they are not included in the above description of pending matters or in the following description of disposed matters. Since receiving its first asbestos claim, the Company as of September 30, 2016, has disposed of the asbestos claims of approximately 397,000 plaintiffs and claimants at an average indemnity payment per claim of approximately $9,300. The Company’s asbestos indemnity payments have varied on a per claim basis, and are expected to continue to vary considerably over time. Asbestos-related cash payments for 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $138 million, $148 million, and $158 million, respectively. The Company’s cash payments per claim disposed (inclusive of legal costs) were approximately $95,000, $81,000 and $93,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As discussed above, the Company’s objective is to achieve, where possible, resolution of asbestos claims pursuant to claims-handling agreements. Failure of claimants to meet certain medical and product exposure criteria in the Company’s administrative claims handling agreements has generally reduced the number of claims that would otherwise have been received by the Company in the tort system. In addition, certain court orders and legislative acts have reduced or eliminated the number of claims that the Company otherwise would have received by the Company in the tort system. These developments generally have had the effect of increasing the Company’s per-claim average indemnity payment over time. Beginning with the initial liability of $975 million established in 1993, the Company has accrued a total of approximately $4.9 billion through 2015, before insurance recoveries, for its asbestos-related liability. The Company’s estimates of its liability have been significantly affected by, among other factors, the volatility of asbestos-related litigation in the United States, the significant number of co-defendants that have filed for bankruptcy, the inherent uncertainty of future disease incidence and claiming patterns against the Company, the significant expansion of the defendants that are now sued in this litigation, and the continuing changes in the extent to which these defendants participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is also a defendant. The Company continues to monitor trends that may affect its ultimate liability and analyze the developments and variables likely to affect the resolution of pending and future asbestos claims against the Company. The material components of the Company’s accrued liability are determined by the Company in connection with its annual comprehensive legal review and consist of the following estimates, to the extent it is probable that such liabilities have been incurred and can be reasonably estimated: (i) the liability for asbestos claims already asserted against the Company; (ii) the liability for asbestos claims not yet asserted against the Company; and (iii) the legal defense costs estimated to be incurred in connection with the claims already asserted and those claims the Company believes will be asserted. As noted above, the Company conducts a comprehensive legal review of its asbestos-related liabilities and costs annually in connection with finalizing and reporting its annual results of operations, unless significant changes in trends or new developments warrant an earlier review. As part of its annual comprehensive legal review, the Company provides historical claims filing data to a third party with expertise in determining the impact of disease incidence and mortality on future filing trends to develop information to assist the Company in estimating the total number of future claims to be filed. The Company uses this estimate of total future claims, along with an estimation of disposition costs and related legal costs as inputs to develop its best estimate of probable liability. If the results of the annual comprehensive legal review indicate that the existing amount of the accrued liability is lower (higher) than its reasonably estimable asbestos-related costs, then the Company will record an appropriate charge (credit) to the Company’s results of operations to increase (decrease) the accrued liability. The significant assumptions underlying the material components of the Company’s accrual are: a) settlements will continue to be limited almost exclusively to claimants who were exposed to the Company’s asbestos‑containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958; b) claims will continue to be resolved primarily under the Company’s administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements; c) the incidence of serious asbestos‑related disease cases and claiming patterns against the Company for such cases do not change materially; d) the Company is substantially able to defend itself successfully at trial and on appeal; e) the number and timing of additional co‑defendant bankruptcies do not change significantly the assets available to participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is a defendant; and f) co-defendants with substantial resources and assets continue to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos lawsuits and claims. The Company revised its method for estimating its asbestos-related liabilities in connection with finalizing and reporting its restated results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 and concluded that an accrual in the amount of $817 million and $939 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively was required. These amounts have not been discounted for the time value of money. The application of the revised method also resulted in charges of $16 million, $46 million and $12 million for the years ending December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that it will incur a loss for its asbestos-related liabilities in excess of the amount currently recognized, which is $817 million as of December 31, 2015. The Company estimates that reasonably possible losses could be as high as $950 million. This estimate of additional reasonably possible loss reflects a legal judgment about the number and cost of potential future claims and legal costs. The Company believes this estimate is consistent with the level of variability it has experienced when comparing actual results to recent near-term projections. However, it is also possible that the ultimate asbestos-related liability could be above this estimate. The Company expects a significant majority of the total number of claims to be received in the next ten years. This timeframe appropriately reflects the mortality of current and expected claimants in light of the Company’s sale of its insulation business unit in 1958. As noted above, the Company’s asbestos-related liability is based on a projection of new claims that will eventually be filed against the Company and the estimated average disposition cost of these claims and related legal costs. Changes in the significant assumptions noted above have the potential to impact these key factors, which are critical to the estimation of the Company’s asbestos-related liability significantly. Other Matters The Company’s joint venture in China is involved in litigation with its partner regarding whether the joint venture should be dissolved. Following an ownership change with respect to the joint venture partner, the Company is now in discussions with the new partner to resolve the dispute. As a result, all legal actions are on-hold. As of September 30, 2016, the Company’s equity investment in this joint venture was approximately $72 million. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position in this litigation, but is unable to predict the final outcome of the matter. On July 5, 2016, the Company learned that the Enforcement Division of the SEC is conducting an investigation into certain accounting and control matters pertaining to the Company’s determination of its asbestos-related liabilities. On May 13, 2016, the Company restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 in order to correct an error related to the Company’s method for estimating its future asbestos-related liabilities. The Company is cooperating with the SEC’s investigation. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of this matter or provide meaningful quantification of how the final resolution of this matter may impact its future consolidated financial statements, results of operations, or cash flows. Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based, including additional information, negotiations, settlements and other events.

Business Combinations On September 1, 2015, the Company completed the Vitro Acquisition in a cash transaction valued at approximately $2.297 billion in cash, subject to a working capital adjustment and certain other adjustments. The Vitro Business in Mexico is the largest supplier of glass containers in that country manufacturing glass containers across multiple end uses, including food, soft drinks, beer, wine and spirits. The Vitro Acquisition included five food and beverage glass container plants in Mexico, a plant in Bolivia and a North American distribution business, and provided the Company with a competitive position in the glass packaging market in Mexico. The results of the Vitro Business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since September 1, 2015 and contributed approximately $606 million of incremental net sales and $123 million of incremental segment operating profit in the first nine months of 2016. Vitro’s food and beverage glass container operations in Mexico and Bolivia are included in the Latin American operating segment while its distribution business is included in the North American operating segment. The Company financed the Vitro Acquisition with the proceeds from a senior notes offering, cash on hand and the incremental term loan facilities (see Note 8). The total purchase price was allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their respective fair values. The purchase agreement contained customary provisions for working capital adjustments, which the Company resolved with the seller in the first quarter of 2016. The Company completed the purchase price allocation process in the third quarter of 2016. The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed on September 1, 2015 and subsequent adjustments identified through the purchase price allocation process and recorded through the measurement period: September 1, 2015 Measurement Period Adjustments September 30, 2016 Cash $ $ — $ Other current assets Goodwill Customer list intangibles and other Net property, plant and equipment Total assets Current liabilities Long-term debt Long-term liabilities Net assets acquired $ $ — $ The fair value of the tangible assets was estimated utilizing income and market approaches, considering remaining useful life. The customer list intangible asset includes the Company’s established relationships with its customers and the ability of these customers to generate future economic profits for the Company. The value assigned to customer list intangibles is based on the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset group after recognition of required returns to other contributory assets. Recognized goodwill is attributable to the assembled workforce, expected synergies and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Vitro Acquisition goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The balance sheet adjustments identified above did not result in any significant adjustments to the periods’ income statement.

Discontinued Operations On April 4, 2016, the annulment committee formed by the World Bank’s International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) ruled that a subsidiary of the Company is free to pursue the enforcement of a prior arbitration award against Venezuela. That award amounts to more than $485 million after including interest from the date of the expropriation by Venezuela (October 26, 2010). Venezuela’s application to annul the award is still pending, although the annulment proceedings were recently suspended because Venezuela has not paid its fees owed to ICSID. If the proceeding is stayed for non payment for a consecutive period in excess of six months, ICSID’s Secretary General could move that the committee discontinue the annulment proceeding altogether. The Company intends to take appropriate steps to vigorously enforce and collect the award, which is enforceable in approximately 150 member states that are party to the ICSID Convention. However, even with the lifting of the stay of enforcement, the Company recognizes that the collection of the award may present significant practical challenges. Because the award has yet to be satisfied and the annulment proceeding is pending, the Company is unable at this stage to reasonably predict the efforts that will be necessary to successfully enforce collection of the award, the amount of the award or the timing of any such collection efforts. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements. A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants. The loss from discontinued operations of $6 million and $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30 2015, respectively, relates to ongoing costs for the Venezuelan expropriation.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which delayed by one year the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard, which will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is in the process of determining the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. Leases - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases", which will require an entity to recognize lease-related assets and liabilities on their balance sheet. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Stock Compensation - In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which requires all excess tax benefits or deficiencies to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. In addition, excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows. Application of the standard is required for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
