Certain repositioning projects will recognize exit costs in future periods when the actual liability is incurred. Such exit costs incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, were $26 million and $25 million, respectively. OTHER CHARGES In 2022, the Company recognized $295 million of Other charges related to the initial suspension and the wind down of the Company's business and operations in Russia. These costs impacted all reportable business segments, with the most significant impact within the historical Performance Materials and Technologies reportable business segment. The Other charges include costs recorded in Cost of products sold, Selling, general and administrative expenses, or Other (income) expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized Other charges of $17 million related to the settlement of a contractual dispute with a Russian entity associated with the Company's suspension and wind down activities in Russia. The charges were recorded in Other (income) expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Given the uncertainty inherent in the Company's remaining obligations related to contracts with Russian counterparties, the Company does not believe it is possible to develop estimates of reasonably possible loss in excess of current accruals for these matters (other than as specifically set forth above). Based on available information to date, the Company’s estimate of potential future losses or other contingencies related to the wind down of activities, including any guarantee payments or any litigation costs or as otherwise related to the Company's wind down in Russia, could adversely affect the Company's consolidated results of operations in the periods recognized but would not be material with respect to the Company's consolidated financial position. See Note 15 Commitments and Contingencies for a discussion of the recognition and measurement of estimate for contingencies. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a fair value adjustment, within Asbestos-related charges, net of insurance and reimbursements in the table above and Other (income) expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations, related to HWI Net Sale Proceeds (as defined in Note 15 Commitments and Contingencies) and reduced the estimate by $11 million. See Note 12 Fair Value Measurements and Note 15 Commitments and Contingencies for further discussion.
