[1] | Includes settlement losses of $5 million recorded within benefit plan non-service income on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings
[2] | Includes all charges recorded since program inception on May 6, 2014 through June 30, 2019.
[3] | We adopted the new ASU on lease accounting as of January 1, 2019. The ASU requires recording onerous lease liabilities netted with right of use assets. Therefore, during the first quarter of 2019, we reclassified onerous lease liabilities that totaled $23 million as of March 31, 2019, from accrued liabilities and other accrued liabilities to operating lease right of use assets.
[4] | During 2019 and 2018, our North America region implementation costs included incremental costs that we incurred related to renegotiating collective bargaining agreements that expired in February 2016 for eight U.S. facilities and related to executing business continuity plans for the North America business.
