Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

2019 Bemis Integration Plan

In connection with the acquisition of Bemis, the Company initiated restructuring activities in the fourth quarter of 2019 aimed at integrating and optimizing the combined organization. As previously announced, the Company continues to target realizing approximately $180 million of pre-tax synergies driven by procurement, supply chain, and general and administrative savings by the end of fiscal year 2022.

The Company's total 2019 Bemis Integration Plan pre-tax integration costs are expected to be approximately $200 million. The total 2019 Bemis Integration Plan costs include $165 million of restructuring and related expenses and $35 million of general integration expenses. The restructuring and related expenses are comprised of approximately $100 million in employee related expenses, $30 million in fixed asset related expenses, $15 million in other restructuring and $20 million in restructuring related expenses. The Company estimates that approximately $150 million of the $200 million total integration costs will result in cash expenditures, of which $115 million relate to restructuring and related expenditures. Cash payments for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 were $69.3 million, of which $38.3 million were payments related to restructuring and related expenditures. Cash payments of approximately $20 million to $30 million are expected for the balance of the fiscal year with $10 million to $20 million representing payments for restructuring and related expenses. The 2019 Bemis Integration Plan relates to the Flexibles segment and Corporate and is expected to be completed by the end of fiscal year 2022.

Restructuring related costs are directly attributable to restructuring activities; however, they do not qualify for special accounting treatment as exit or disposal activities. General integration costs are not linked to restructuring. The Company believes the disclosure of restructuring related costs provides more information on the total cost of our 2019 Bemis Integration Plan. The restructuring related costs relate primarily to the closure of facilities and include costs to replace graphics, train new employees on relocated equipment and anticipated loss on sale of closed facilities.

2018 Rigid Packaging Restructuring Plan

On August 21, 2018, the Company announced a restructuring plan in Amcor Rigid Packaging ("2018 Rigid Packaging Restructuring Plan") aimed at reducing structural costs and optimizing the footprint. The Plan includes the closures of manufacturing facilities and headcount reductions to achieve manufacturing footprint optimization and productivity improvements as well as overhead cost reductions.

The Company's total 2018 Rigid Packaging Restructuring Plan pre-tax restructuring costs are expected to be approximately $95 million with the main component being the cost to exit manufacturing facilities and employee related costs. The Company estimates that approximately $65 million of the $95 million total costs will result in cash expenditures. Cash payments for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 were $12.2 million, with approximately $5 million to $10 million expected during the remainder of the fiscal year. The 2018 Rigid Packaging Restructuring Plan is expected to be completed during fiscal 2021.
