| EQUITY |
EQUITY Share repurchase program - In May 2015, Bunge established a program for the repurchase of up to $500 million of Bunge’s issued and outstanding common shares. The program has no expiration date. Bunge did not repurchase any common shares during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Bunge repurchased 3,296,230 common shares in 2016 under this program for $200 million. Total repurchases under the program from its inception were 4,707,440 shares for $300 million. Pension liability adjustment - On September 19, 2017, Bunge approved changes to certain U.S. defined benefit pension plans (“Plans”). The changes were announced on September 26, 2017 to all U.S. employees of Bunge. These changes will freeze the Plans for future benefit accruals effective January 1, 2023, and these Plans will be closed for participation for employees hired on or after January 1, 2018. As a result, Bunge recognized a curtailment gain associated with the Plans’ freeze and as such, the projected benefit obligations for these Plans were remeasured as of September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2017, a $31 million pension curtailment gain and $18 million remeasurement loss were recognized and recorded in OCI.
