SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Discontinued operations presentation:
The consolidated statement of income and related notes reflects our Pressure Sensitive Materials business as a discontinued operation (see Note 6 — Divestitures and Plant Closures). The consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods includes both continuing and discontinued operations.
Principles of consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Joint ventures which are not majority controlled are accounted for by the equity method of accounting with earnings of $
2.2 million
, $
1.9 million
, and $
1.7 million
in
2016
,
2015
, and
2014
, respectively, included in other operating income on the accompanying consolidated statement of income. Investments in joint ventures of $
6.2 million
and $
5.4 million
as of
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively, are included in deferred charges and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Estimates and assumptions required:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Translation of foreign currencies:
The Company considers the local currency to be the functional currency for substantially all foreign subsidiaries. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date. All revenue and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. Translation gains or losses are recorded in the foreign currency translation component in accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains of $
0.4 million
in
2016
and losses of $
1.4 million
and $
3.5 million
in
2015
and
2014
, respectively, are included as a component of other operating income. Foreign currency transaction losses of $
0.7 million
were recorded within non-operating income in 2016. There were no foreign currency transaction losses recorded within non-operating income in 2015 or 2014.
Revenue recognition:
Sales and related costs of products sold are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. These conditions are typically fulfilled upon shipment of products. All costs associated with revenue, including customer rebates and provisions for estimates of sales returns and allowances, are recognized as a deduction from revenue in the period in which the associated revenue is recorded. Customer rebates are accrued using sales data and rebate percentages specific to each customer agreement. Shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of cost of products sold while amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are classified as a component of sales. The Company accrues for estimated warranty costs when specific issues are identified and the amounts are determinable and also considers the history of actual claims paid. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities on revenue producing transactions, including sales, value added, excise and use taxes, are recorded on a net basis (excluded from revenue).
Research and development:
Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred.
Restructuring costs:
Restructuring costs are recognized when the liability is incurred. The Company calculates severance obligations based on its standard customary practices. Accordingly, the Company records provisions for severance when probable and estimable and the Company has committed to the restructuring plan. In the absence of a standard customary practice or established local practice for locations outside the U.S., liabilities for severance are recognized when incurred. If fixed assets are to be disposed of as a result of the Company’s restructuring efforts, the assets are written off when the Company commits to dispose of them and they are no longer in use. Depreciation is accelerated on fixed assets for the period of time the asset continues to be used until the asset ceases to be used. Other restructuring costs, including costs to relocate equipment, are generally recorded as the cost is incurred or the service is provided.
Cash and cash equivalents:
The Company considers all highly liquid temporary investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include certificates of deposit that can be readily liquidated without penalty at the Company’s option. Cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair market value.
Trade receivables:
Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect, which is net of an allowance for sales returns and the estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. When determining the collectability of specific customer accounts, a number of factors are evaluated, including: customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, and changes in customer payment terms or practices. In addition, overall historical collection experience, current economic industry trends, and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable are considered when determining the required allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to allowance for doubtful accounts. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the allowance for doubtful accounts and a credit to trade receivables. Trade receivables are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $
18.2 million
and $
18.0 million
at
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
The Company enters into supply chain financing programs from time to time to sell trade receivables without recourse to third-party financial institutions. Sales of trade receivables are reflected as a reduction of trade receivables on the consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are included in the cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company sold without recourse trade receivables representing approximately
12 percent
and
10 percent
, respectively, of net sales, and the associated discount on sale of trade receivables was not significant.
Inventory valuation:
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, as determined by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method, or net realizable value. Inventory values using the FIFO method of accounting approximate replacement cost. Inventories are summarized at December 31, as follows:

Property and equipment:
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve efficiency or extend economic life are expensed as incurred. Plant and equipment are depreciated for financial reporting purposes principally using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets as follows: land improvements,
15
-
30
years; buildings,
15
-
45
years; leasehold and building improvements, the lesser of the lease term or
8
-
20
years; and machinery and equipment,
3
-
16
years. For tax purposes, the Company generally uses accelerated methods of depreciation. The tax effect of the difference between book and tax depreciation has been provided as deferred income taxes. Depreciation expense was $
146.1 million
, $
144.2 million
, and $
154.6 million
for
2016
,
2015
, and
2014
, respectively. On sale or retirement, the asset cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any related gain or loss is reflected in income. Interest costs, which are capitalized during the construction of major capital projects, totaled $
0.5 million
, $
0.4 million
, and $
0.2 million
in
2016
,
2015
, and
2014
, respectively.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If impairment indicators are present and the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, the carrying values are reduced to the estimated fair value.
The Company capitalizes direct costs (internal and external) of materials and services used in the development and purchase of internal-use software. Amounts capitalized are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of
three
to
twelve
years and are reported as a component of machinery and equipment within property and equipment.
The Company is in the process of developing and implementing a new Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") system. Certain costs incurred during the application development stage have been capitalized in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance related to accounting for costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. The net book value of capitalized costs for this new ERP system were approximately $
60.8 million
and $
65.7 million
as of
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively. These costs are being amortized over the system’s estimated useful life as the ERP system is placed in service.
Goodwill:
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead tested annually or when events and circumstances indicate an impairment may have occurred. The Company's reporting units each contain goodwill that is assessed for potential impairment. All goodwill is assigned to reporting units, which is defined as the operating segment, or one level below the operating segment. The Company has three reporting units, of which two are included in the Global Packaging reportable segment. The other reporting unit is the U.S. Packaging segment.
Goodwill for the reporting units is reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year using a two-step process. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared to its carrying value, including goodwill. The determination of the estimated fair value of the reporting units utilizes both a discounted cash flow valuation and a market multiple method. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow valuation method include discount rates, long-term sales growth rates and forecasted operating margins. The market multiple method estimates fair value by comparing the Company to similar public companies. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, step two is not required and an impairment loss is not recognized. If step two were required, the implied fair value of goodwill would be calculated by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets, including unrecognized intangible assets, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized equal to the difference.
The annual impairment test indicated no impairment for the years ended
December 31, 2016
,
2015
, or
2014
, nor does the Company have any accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets:
Contractual or separable intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized against income using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, with original periods ranging from
one
to
thirty
years. The straight-line method of amortization reflects an appropriate allocation of the costs of the intangible assets to earnings in proportion to the amount of economic benefits obtained by the Company in each reporting period. The Company tests finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever there is an impairment indicator. Intangible assets are tested for impairment by comparing anticipated undiscounted future cash flows from operations to net book value.
Financial instruments:
The Company recognizes all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through income. Depending on the nature of derivatives designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in shareholders’ equity through other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized. Gains or losses, if any, related to the ineffective portion of any hedge are recognized through earnings in the current period.
Note 8 contains expanded details relating to specific derivative instruments included on the Company’s balance sheet, such as forward foreign currency exchange contracts, currency swap contracts, and interest rate swap arrangements.
Other liabilities and deferred credits:
Other liabilities and deferred credits balances include non-current pension and other postretirement liability amounts of $
59.5 million
and $
99.8 million
at
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Treasury stock:
Treasury stock purchases are stated at cost and presented as a separate reduction of shareholders’ equity. During 2016, the Company purchased
3.0 million
shares of common stock in the open market for $
143.9 million
. During 2015, the Company purchased
3.3 million
shares of common stock in the open market for $
150.1 million
. During 2014, the Company purchased
3.8 million
shares of common stock in the open market for $
152.1 million
. At
December 31, 2016
, approximately
20.4 million
common shares can be repurchased, at management’s discretion, under authority granted by the Company’s Board of Directors in 2016.
Note 3 — NEW ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance to simplify elements of cash flow classification. The guidance is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance requires cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs to be classified as cash outflows for financing activities. It also requires cash payments made soon after an acquisition's consummation date (approximately three months or less) to be classified as cash outflows for investing activities. Payments made thereafter should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities up to the amount of the original contingent consideration liability. Payments made in excess of the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows for operating activities. The guidance is required to be applied by the Company in the first quarter of 2018, but early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that will change certain aspects of accounting for share-based payments to employees. The new guidance will require all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled and recognized in the statement of cash flows as operating cash flows. The guidance will also allow employee tax withholdings above the minimum statutory requirement without triggering liability accounting. Finally, the Company will be able to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. This guidance will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2017 and applied prospectively.
If this guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2016, diluted earnings per share in the first quarter would have increased by $
0.04
from $
0.59
to $
0.63
due to a reduction in income tax expense. The impact to operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2016 would have been an increase of $
4.2 million
with a corresponding decrease in financing cash flows. Stock awards typically vest in the first quarter so the impact is concentrated in the first three months of each year. The impact in future years will be dependent on Bemis stock performance and the number of shares vesting each year. The impact in 2017 will be a $
0.9 million
reduction of income tax expense and an equivalent benefit to operating cash flow.
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to today's accounting. The guidance also eliminates today's real estate-specific provisions and changes the guidance on sale-leaseback transactions, initial direct costs and lease executory costs for all entities. All entities will classify leases to determine how to recognize lease-related revenue and expense. The guidance is required to be applied by the Company in the first quarter of 2019, but early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2015, the FASB issued guidance
that eliminates the current requirement for an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, acquirers must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2016 and did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition of fees paid by a customer for cloud computing arrangements. The new guidance clarifies that if a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, the customer should account for the software license consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2016 and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued new guidance which supersedes current revenue recognition requirements. This guidance is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of 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. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer for one year the effective date of the new revenue standard. The guidance is required to be applied by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 using one of two retrospective applications methods. The FASB also decided to permit entities to early adopt the standard.
The Company has elected to adopt the new revenue guidance as of January 1, 2018. In preparation for adoption of the new guidance, the Company has reviewed representative samples of contracts and other forms of agreements with customers globally and has evaluated the provisions under the five-step model specified by the new guidance. Based on its procedures to date, the Company has preliminarily concluded the new revenue recognition guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. However, this conclusion could change as the Company finalizes its assessment during 2017. The Company will decide which retrospective application to apply once the assessment is finalized.
Note 4 — RESTRUCTURING
During the second quarter of 2016, the Company initiated a restructuring program to improve efficiencies and reduce fixed costs. As a part of this program,
four
Latin American facilities within the Global Packaging segment will be closed. Most of the production from these facilities will be transferred to other facilities. As of December 31, 2016, manufacturing operations had ceased at
two
of these manufacturing facilities. Based on current estimates and actual charges to date, the Company expects total restructuring costs of approximately $
28
to $
30 million
, with employee termination costs accounting for $
15
to $
16 million
of the total and the balance in other restructuring costs which includes fixed asset accelerated depreciation of approximately $
3 million
. Expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 were $
21.6 million
.

Note 5 — ACQUISITIONS
SteriPack
On April 29, 2016, the Company acquired the medical device packaging operations and related value-added services of SteriPack Group, a global manufacturer of sterile packaging solutions for medical device and pharmaceutical applications. This acquisition includes a facility in Ireland as well as packaging production assets in Malaysia and the United States. The cash purchase price was $
115.5 million
. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in approximately $
66.8 million
of goodwill for the Global Packaging segment, the majority of which is not expected to be tax deductible. The goodwill identified by this acquisition reflects the benefits expected to be derived from product line expansion.

Note 6 — DIVESTITURES AND PLANT CLOSURES
Bemis Healthcare Packaging Plant Closure
In January 2015, the Company announced that it would close a plant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, one of its healthcare packaging facilities. Production from this facility was transferred to other healthcare facilities throughout 2015. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, plant closure costs of $
7.8 million
were recorded. These costs were recorded within restructuring and acquisition-related costs and included the Company's best estimate of a withdrawal liability for a multi-employer pension plan settlement. Operations ceased at this location in January 2016. The majority of approximately $
7 million
of cash payments were disbursed in 2016.
Divestiture of Pressure Sensitive Materials Business
On November 7, 2014, the Company completed the sale its global Pressure Sensitive Materials business. Proceeds of the transaction totaled $
150.5 million
. Of the total proceeds, $
136.9 million
was received in fiscal 2014 and $
13.6 million
was received in April 2015 which related to settlement of customary post-closing adjustments. At September 30, 2014, the Company determined that the Pressure Sensitive Materials business met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation, which required retrospective application to certain financial information for all periods presented.
The following table summarizes the results of the Pressure Sensitive Materials business, reclassified as discontinued operations for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

Loss from discontinued operations in 2015 resulted from additional impairment charges, net of tax, reflecting finalization of post-closing adjustments. Loss from discontinued operations in 2014 includes the operating results of the Pressure Sensitive Materials business, goodwill impairment charges, direct transaction costs associated with the divestiture, plant closure costs associated with the Stow, Ohio plant, and the associated income tax effects of these items.
Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are required to be recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Accordingly, the Company recorded goodwill impairment charges of $
44.7 million
in the third quarter of 2014 when it became apparent the business would sell for less than its carrying value.
In March 2014, the Company announced the closure of its plant in Stow, Ohio, one of its Pressure Sensitive Materials manufacturing facilities. Operations ceased at this location in May 2014. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, plant closure costs of $
25.0
million were recorded and approximately $
20.8
million of cash payments were made. These costs are included within loss from discontinued operation and included a final withdrawal payment for a multi-employer pension plan.
Divestiture of Paper Packaging Division
On March 31, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its Paper Packaging Division. Annual net sales by this division were approximately $
160 million
. Net proceeds of the transaction totaled $
78.7 million
. A $
9.3 million
pre-tax gain on the sale was recorded as part of other non-operating income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.
Note 7 — FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE
The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities listed below reflect the amounts that would be received to sell the assets or paid to transfer the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).
The Company’s non-derivative financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt. At
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, the carrying value of these financial instruments, excluding long-term debt, approximates fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Fair value disclosures are classified based on the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 fair value measurements represent exchange-traded securities which are valued at quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the reporting date. Level 2 fair value measurements are determined using input prices that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3 fair value measurements are determined using unobservable inputs, such as internally developed pricing models for the asset or liability due to little or no market activity for the asset or liability.
The fair value measurements of the Company’s long-term debt represent non-active market exchange-traded securities which are valued at quoted prices or using input prices that are directly observable or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. The carrying values and estimated fair values of long-term debt at
December 31, 2016
and
2015

The fair values for derivatives are based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. These inputs include interest rates. The financial assets and financial liabilities are primarily valued using standard calculations / models that use as their basis readily observable market parameters. Industry standard data providers are the primary source for forward and spot rate information for both interest rates and currency rates, with resulting valuations periodically validated through third-party or counterparty quotes. The fair value of the Company's derivatives follow:

Note 8 — DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company enters into derivative transactions to manage exposures arising in the normal course of business. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through income. Depending on the nature of derivatives designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in shareholders' equity through other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized. Gains or losses, if any, related to the ineffective portion of any hedge are recognized through earnings in the current period.
The Company enters into interest-rate swap contracts to economically convert a portion of the Company’s fixed-rate debt to variable rate debt. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company entered into
four
interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $
400 million
. These contracts were designated as fair value hedges of the Company’s $
400 million
4.5%
fixed-rate debt due in 2021. The variable rate for each of the interest rate swaps is based on the six-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), set in arrears, plus a fixed spread. The variable rates are reset semi-annually at each net settlement date. Fair values of these interest rate swaps are determined using discounted cash flow or other appropriate methodologies. Asset positions are included in deferred charges and other assets with a corresponding increase in long-term debt. Liability positions are included in other liabilities and deferred credits with a corresponding decrease in long-term debt.
The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to manage foreign currency exchange rate exposures associated with certain foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. Forward exchange contracts generally have maturities of less than
six
months and relate primarily to the U.S. dollar for the Company’s Brazilian operations. The Company has not designated these derivative instruments as hedging instruments. At
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, the Company had outstanding forward exchange contracts with notional amounts aggregating $
4.1 million
and $
3.8 million
, respectively. The net settlement amount (fair value) related to active forward exchange contracts is recorded on the balance sheet as either a current or long-term asset or liability and as an element of other operating income which offsets the related transaction gains or losses. The net settlement amounts are immaterial for all periods presented.
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties in forward exchange contracts and interest-rate swap contracts. Collateral is generally not required of the counterparties or of the Company. In the event a counterparty fails to meet the contractual terms of a currency swap or forward exchange contract, the Company’s risk is limited to the fair value of the instrument. The Company actively monitors its exposure to credit risk through the use of credit approvals and credit limits, and by selecting major international banks and financial institutions as counterparties. The Company has not had any historical instances of non-performance by any counterparties, nor does it anticipate any future instances of non-performance.

Note 10 — PENSION PLANS
Total defined benefit, defined contribution, and multiemployer plan pension expense in
2016
,
2015
, and
2014
was $
32.1 million
, $
41.2 million
, and $
37.2 million
, respectively.
The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings plan (a defined contribution plan) for substantially all U.S. employees. From 2014 through 2016, the Company contributed $
0.50
for every pre-tax $
1.00
an employee contributed on the first four percent of eligible compensation plus $
0.25
for every pre-tax $
1.00
an employee contributed on the next
four percent
of eligible compensation for the plans that included a company match. The Company contributions were invested in Company stock and were fully vested after three years of service. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company will contribute $
1.00
for every pre-tax $
1.00
an employee contributes up to
eight percent
of eligible compensation for the plans that include a company match. The Company contributions will be invested in target retirement date funds based on employees’ ages and are fully vested after three years of service. Total Company contributions for
2016
,
2015
, and
2014
were $
10.6 million
, $
10.2 million
, and $
10.6 million
, respectively.
Through December 31, 2016, for employees not participating in defined benefit pension plans, the Company contributed to the Bemis Investment Profit Sharing Plan (BIPSP), a defined contribution plan which was subject to achievement
of certain financial performance goals of the Company. The BIPSP has been terminated for years after 2016. Total contribution expense for BIPSP and other defined contribution plans (including a multiemployer defined contribution plan and excluding 401(k) plans above) was $
11.1 million
in
2016
, $
20.0 million
in
2015
, and $
16.5 million
in
2014
. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has withdrawn from all multiemployer defined benefit pension plans. Amounts contributed to the multiemployer plans in
2016
,
2015
, and
2014
totaled $
0.0 million
, $
0.1 million
, and $
0.7 million
, respectively (refer to Note 12 - Multiemployer Defined Benefit Pension Plans).
Two of the Company's three U.S. defined benefit plans were frozen as of December 31, 2013. The frozen plans are the salaried retirement plan that covered certain salaried employees and the unfunded supplemental retirement plan that provided senior management with benefits in excess of limits under the federal tax law. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans continue to cover a number of U.S. hourly employees, and the non-U.S. defined benefit plans cover select employees at various international locations. The benefits under the plans are based on years of service and salary levels. Certain plans covering hourly employees provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. In 2014, the Society of Actuaries released updated mortality tables and a mortality projection scale which the Company adopted to measure defined benefit plan liabilities. In 2015 and 2016, the Society of Actuaries published new mortality projection scales which were used in conjunction with 2014 mortality tables in measuring defined benefit plan liabilities in 2015 and 2016.
In 2016, the Company recognized a $
5.8 million
pension settlement charge related to lump sum payments from the U.S. supplemental pension plan. The lump sum payments totaled $
18.1 million
and are reflected as benefits paid in the “Change in Benefit Obligation” and the “Change in Plan Assets” tables. Also during 2016, a lump sum window was offered to certain participants of the other two U.S. defined benefit pension plans which resulted in lump sum payments of $
26.3 million
. These payments are also reflected as benefits paid. Lump sum payments decrease the benefit obligation and decrease plan assets.
Net periodic pension cost for defined benefit plans included the following components for the years ended
December 31, 2016

The Company’s general funding policy is to make contributions as required by applicable regulations and when beneficial to the Company for tax purposes. The employer contributions for the years ended
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, were $
20.7 million
and $
2.9 million
, respectively. Total expected cash contributions for
2017
are $
4.0 million
which are expected to satisfy plan and regulatory funding requirements.
For the years ended
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, the U.S. pension plans represented approximately
93 percent
and
92 percent
, respectively, of the Company’s total plan assets and approximately
92 percent
and
93 percent
, respectively, of the Company’s total projected benefit obligation. Considering the significance of the U.S. pension plans in comparison with the Company’s total pension plans, the critical pension assumptions related to the U.S. pension plans and the non-U.S. pension plans are separately presented and discussed below.
The Company’s actuarial valuation date is December 31. The weighted-average discount rates and rates of increase in future compensation levels used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation for the years ended December 31 are as follows:

The Company's ERISA Benefit Plan Committee is responsible for overseeing the investments of the pension plans. The overall investment strategy is to achieve a long-term rate of return that maintains an adequate funded ratio and minimizes the need for future contributions through diversification of asset types, investment strategies, and investment managers. A target asset allocation policy is used to balance investments in equity securities with investments in fixed income securities. Beginning in 2013, the Company adopted a liability responsive asset allocation policy that becomes more conservative as the funded status of the plans improve. The majority of pension plan assets relate to U.S. plans and the target allocation is currently to invest approximately
65 percent
in long-term corporate fixed income securities and approximately
35 percent
in return seeking funds. The return seeking funds primarily include investments in diversified portfolios of domestic large cap and small cap companies. Fixed income securities include diversified investments across a broad spectrum of primarily investment-grade debt securities. To develop the expected long-term rate of return on assets assumption, the Company considered historical returns and future expectations. Using the Company’s 2017 target asset allocation based on a liability responsive asset allocation, the Company’s outside actuaries have used their independent economic model to calculate a range of expected long-term rates of return and, based on their results, the Company has determined these assumptions to be reasonable.
The pension plan assets measured at fair value at
December 31, 2016
and
2015

This category consists of direct cash holdings and institutional short-term investment vehicles. Direct cash holdings are valued based on cost, which approximates fair value and are classified as Level 1. Institutional short-term investment vehicles are valued daily and are classified as Level 2.
Corporate, U.S. government, state, and municipal debt securities
. These securities are valued using market inputs including benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs may be prioritized differently at certain times based on market conditions.
Corporate common stock.
This category includes common and preferred stocks and index mutual funds that track U.S. and foreign indices. Fair values for the common and preferred stocks are based on quoted prices in active markets and were therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The mutual funds were valued at the unit prices established by the funds' sponsors based on the fair value of the assets underlying the funds. Since the units of the funds are not actively traded, the fair value measurements have been classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Registered investment company funds.
This category includes mutual funds that are actively traded on public exchanges. The funds are invested in equity and debt securities that are actively traded on public exchanges.
Common trust funds.
Common trust funds consist of shares in commingled funds that are not publicly traded. The funds are invested in equity and debt securities that are actively traded on public exchanges.

Note 11 — POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
The Company sponsors several defined postretirement benefit plans that cover a majority of salaried and a portion of nonunion hourly employees in the U.S. These plans provide healthcare benefits and, in some instances, provide life insurance benefits. Postretirement health care plans are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually. Further health care benefit accruals for all persons entitled to benefits under these plans were frozen as of March 31, 2014. The Company recorded a plan curtailment gain of
$3.0 million
related to the amendments in 2014. Effective February 1, 2016, participants under the age of 50 as of March 1, 2016, are no longer eligible for the postretirement health care plans.
Life insurance plans are noncontributory.
Net periodic postretirement benefit costs included the following components for the years ended
December 31, 2016
,
2015
, and

The employer contributions for the years ended
December 31, 2016
and
2015
were $
0.3 million
and $
0.7 million
, respectively. The expected contribution for
2017
is $
0.4 million
which is expected to satisfy plan funding requirements.
The health care cost trend rate assumption affects the amounts reported. For measurement purposes, the assumed annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits was
6.75 percent
for
2016
and
7.5 percent
for
2015
; each year's estimated rate was assumed to decrease
0.25 percent
annually to
5.0 percent
and remain at that level thereafter. A one-percentage point change in assumed health care trends would have a nominal effect on both the total of service and interest cost components for 2016 and the post retirement benefit obligations at December 31, 2016.
The Company’s actuarial valuation date is December 31. The weighted-average discount rate used to determine the actuarial present value of the net postretirement projected benefit obligation for each of the years ended
December 31, 2016
and
2015
was
4.25 percent
. The weighted-average discount rates used to determine the net postretirement benefit cost was
4.25 percent
,
4.00 percent
, and
4.62 percent
for the years ended
December 31, 2016
,
2015
, and
2014
, respectively.
Note 12 — MULTIEMPLOYER DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS
As of December 31, 2016, the Company no longer contributes to any multiemployer defined benefit pension plans.
In 2016, the Company withdrew from the Warehouse Employees Local 169 & Employers Joint Pension Fund as part of the closure of a Bemis Healthcare Packaging plant in Philadelphia, PA (refer to Note 6 - Divestitures and Plant Closures). The withdrawal liability was settled and paid in the January 2017. Company contributions to the plan were $
0.0 million
, $
0.1 million
, and $
0.1 million
in the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.
In 2014, the Company settled and paid a withdrawal liability for the withdrawal from the Central States Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Fund as part of a Pressure Sensitive Materials plant closure in Stow, OH (refer to Note 6). Company contributions to the plan were $
0.6 million
in the year ended December 31, 2014.
Note 13 — STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS
In 2014, the Company adopted the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, which replaced the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan. The 2014 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of up to
3,282,170
shares of common stock to certain employees and the Company's Board of Directors. The number of shares available under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan represented the number of shares that were remaining available for issuance under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan when the new plan was adopted as no further awards would be made under the prior plan. As of
December 31, 2016
,
2,448,067
shares were available for future grants under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. Shares subject to awards that are forfeited by an employee under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan or the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan become available for future grants under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. Distribution of stock awards is made in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock on a one for one basis. Distribution of the shares will normally be made not less than
three
years, nor more than
six
years, from the date of the stock award grant to an employee. Prior to 2016, stock awards for directors were fully vested upon grant. Beginning in 2016, stock awards for directors generally vest one year from the date of the grant. All other stock awards granted under the plans are subject to restrictions as to continuous employment, except in the case of death, permanent disability, retirement or change in control.
Total compensation expense related to stock incentive plans was $
18.1 million
in
2016
, $
18.4 million
in
2015
, and $
14.0 million
in
2014
. As of
December 31, 2016
, the unrecorded compensation cost for stock awards was $
18.3 million
and
will be recognized over the remaining vesting period for each grant which ranges between 2017 and 2019. The remaining weighted-average life of all stock awards outstanding as of
December 31, 2016
was
0.96
years. These awards are considered equity-based awards and are therefore classified as a component of additional paid-in capital.
Cash payments equal to dividends on awards are distributed at the same time as the shares of common stock to which they relate.
Time-Based Stock Awards
The cost of time-based stock awards is based on the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant and is charged to income on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The per share fair value of time-based stock awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $
45.56
, $
45.18
, and $
40.65
, respectively.
Performance-Based Stock Awards
Certain officers and key employees are also eligible to receive performance-based stock awards. Grantees of performance-based awards will be eligible to receive shares of the Company's common stock depending upon the Company's total shareholder return, assuming reinvestment of all dividends, relative to the performance of the Company's comparator group over a three-year period. The per share fair value of performance-based awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $
48.48
, $
53.14
, and $
46.42
, respectively, which the Company determined using a Monte Carlo simulation and the following assumptions:

The average risk-free interest rate is based on the three-year U.S. treasury security rate in effect as of the grant date. The expected volatilities were determined using daily historical volatility for the most recent three-year period as of the grant date. In 2017, there was a
94.7 percent
payout of 2014 awards, and the balance was canceled. In 2016, there was a
93.7 percent
payout of 2013 awards, and the balance was canceled. In 2015, there was a
59.5 percent
payout of 2012 awards, and the balance was canceled. In 2014, there was no payout of 2011 awards and all awards were canceled.

The Company's overall tax expense is primarily driven by operations within the jurisdictions of the United States and Brazil. The Company's foreign tax rate differential is largely the result of lower statutory rates in the jurisdictions of its European operations as well as generally lower statutory rates in the remainder of the Company's foreign operating jurisdictions.
As of
December 31, 2016
, the Company had foreign net operating loss carryovers of approximately $
85.3 million
that are available to offset future taxable income. Approximately $
23.9 million
of the carryover expires over the period 2017-2033. The remaining balance has no expiration. In addition, the Company had $
24.1 million
of foreign tax credit carryover that is available to offset future tax. This carryover expires over the period 2018-2024.
Current authoritative guidance issued by the FASB requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has, and continues to generate, both net operating losses and deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions for which a valuation allowance is required. The Company’s management determined that a valuation allowance of $
40.3 million
and $
42.0 million
against deferred tax assets primarily associated with the foreign net operating loss carryover and the foreign tax credit carryover was necessary at
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Provision has not been made for U.S. or additional foreign taxes on $
287.5 million
of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because those earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested in the operations of those subsidiaries. It is not practical to estimate the amount of tax that might be payable on the eventual remittance of such earnings.
The Company had total unrecognized tax benefits of $
32.9 million
and
$30.7 million
at
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively. The approximate amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would impact the effective income tax rate if recognized in any future periods was $
32.9 million
and $
30.7 million
for the years ended
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits, in millions, is as follows:

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of income tax expense. The Company recognized $
1.2 million
, $
1.5 million
, and $
0.4 million
of net tax benefit related to interest and penalties during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. The Company had approximately $
13.2 million
and $
11.8 million
accrued for interest and penalties, net of tax benefits, at
December 31, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
As a result of acquisitions, the Company recorded $
2.6 million
and $
6.8 million
of unrecognized tax benefits in 2016 and 2015, respectively and $
2.5 million
and $
7.2 million
of interest and penalties related to pre-acquisition tax positions in 2016 and 2015, respectively. Corresponding assets related to these indemnified provisions have also been recorded for these amounts.
During the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that a reduction of gross unrecognized tax benefits will occur in an amount of up to $
6.0 million
, exclusive of currency movements, as a result of the resolution of positions taken on previously filed returns.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income tax as well as income tax in multiple international jurisdictions. The Company's U.S. federal income tax returns prior to 2013 are no longer subject to examination. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2011 in the significant jurisdictions in which it operates.

.
Note 19 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in a number of lawsuits incidental to its business, including environmental-related litigation and routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of these cases, the Company believes, except as discussed below, that any ultimate liability would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
Environmental Matters
The Company is a potentially responsible party ("PRP") pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (commonly known as “Superfund”) and similar state and foreign laws in proceedings associated with
17
sites around the United States and
one
in Brazil. These proceedings were instituted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and certain state and foreign environmental agencies at various times beginning in 1983. Superfund and similar state and foreign laws create liability for investigation and remediation in response to releases of hazardous substances in the environment. Under these statutes, joint and several liability may be imposed on waste generators, site owners and operators, and others regardless of fault. Although these regulations could require the Company to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment at various sites, perform remediation work at such sites, or pay damages for loss of use and non-use values, the Company expects its liability in these proceedings to be limited to monetary damages. The Company expects its future liability relative to these sites to be insignificant, individually and in the aggregate.
The Company is involved in other environmental-related litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues environmental costs when it is probable that these costs will be incurred and can be reasonably estimated. The Company's reserve for environmental liabilities at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $
3.5 million
and $
5.6 million
, respectively.
Brazil Tax Dispute - Goodwill Amortization
During October 2013, Dixie Toga, Ltda ("Dixie Toga") received an income tax assessment in Brazil for the tax years 2009 through 2011 that relates to the amortization of certain goodwill generated from the acquisition of Dixie Toga. The income tax assessed for those years is approximately $
11.7 million
, translated to U.S. dollars at the
December 31, 2016
exchange rate. The Company expects that tax examinations for years after 2011 will include similar assessments as the Company continues to claim the tax benefits associated with the goodwill amortization. An ultimate adverse resolution on
these assessments, including interest and penalties, could be material to the Company's consolidated results of operations and/or cash flows.
The Company has been advised by its legal and tax advisors that its position with respect to the deductions is allowable under the tax laws of Brazil. The Company is contesting the disallowance and believes it is more likely than not the tax benefit will be sustained in its entirety and consequently has not recorded a liability. The Company intends to litigate the matter if it is not resolved at the administrative appeals levels. The ultimate outcome will not be determined until the Brazilian tax appeal process is complete, which could take several years. At this time, the Company believes that final resolution of the assessment will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Brazil Investigation
On September 18, 2007, the Secretariat of Economic Law
, a governmental agency in Brazil, which has now been replaced by the General Superintendence of the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (“CADE”), initiated an investigation into possible anti-competitive practices in the Brazilian flexible packaging industry against a number of Brazilian companies including a Dixie Toga subsidiary. The investigation relates to periods prior to the Company's acquisition of control of Dixie Toga and its subsidiaries.
In late November 2016, the investigative arm of CADE issued an advisory opinion recommending, among other actions, the imposition of fines on Itap Bemis, a Dixie Toga subsidiary. The case will now be sent to the CADE Tribunal,
which will decide to either accept or decline the recommendation. The Company expects that the Tribunal decision will be issued in 2017.
In the event of an adverse decision, it is difficult to predict possible fines, but based on CADE's current fining practice, the fines assessed could be as high as $
60 million
, depending on CADE’s determination of the applicable revenue base for the calculation of the fine. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position and plans to appeal any adverse decision by the Tribunal. Upon appeal, the Company would likely be required to post bond, deposit funds equal to the assessed fines, or provide other collateral. The Company is u
nable at this time to predict the outcome of this matter, but believes it is not probable that an adverse judgment would stand after exhausting all appeals which are likely to take several years and therefore no provision has been made in the consolidated financial statements.
Note 20 — SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS
The Company's business activities are organized around and aggregated into its
two
principal business segments, U.S. Packaging and Global Packaging, based on their similar economic characteristics, products, production process, types of customers, and distribution methods. Both internal and external reporting conforms to this organizational structure, with no significant differences in accounting policies applied. Intersegment sales (which are not significant) are generally priced to reflect nominal markups.
The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on operating profit, which is defined as profit before restructuring and acquisition-related costs, general corporate expense, interest expense, other non-operating income, and income taxes. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the tables below were recasted to more clearly reflect that operating segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit before restructuring and acquisition-related costs.
Sales to the Kraft Heinz Company, and its subsidiaries, accounted for approximately
11
and
12 percent
of the Company's sales in 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company primarily sells to Kraft Heinz Company in the U.S. Packaging segment.
Products produced within the U.S. and Global Packaging business segments service packaging applications for markets such as food, medical devices, pharma, personal care, agribusiness, chemicals, pet food, and consumer products.
