Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisitions and Divestitures | Acquisitions and Divestitures In March 2017, Arconic completed the sale of its Fusina, Italy rolling mill to Slim Aluminium. While owned by Arconic, the operating results and assets and liabilities of the Fusina, Italy rolling mill were included in the Global Rolled Products segment. As part of the transaction, Arconic injected $10 of cash into the business and provided a third-party guarantee with a fair value of $5 related to Slim Aluminium’s environmental remediation. The Company recorded a loss on the sale of $60, which was recorded in Restructuring and other charges (see Note E) on the Statement of Consolidated Operations in the first quarter of 2017. The rolling mill generated third-party sales of approximately $37 in the first quarter of 2017. At the time of the divestiture, the rolling mill had approximately 312 employees. On April 2, 2018, Arconic completed the sale of its Latin America extrusions business to a subsidiary of Hydro Extruded Solutions AS for $5 in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments that are not expected to be significant. The sales price approximates the carrying value of the net assets sold on the closing date, following the charge of $41 recognized in the fourth quarter of 2017 related to the non-cash impairment of the net book value of the business. The operating results and assets and liabilities of the business were included in the Transportation and Construction Solutions segment. This business generated sales of approximately $25 and $26 in the first quarter of 2018 and 2017, respectively.
