Income Tax

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a charge of $15 related to the settlement of a pre-acquisition tax contingency during the second quarter of 2019. The contingency arose from a transaction that occurred prior to its acquisition of Signode.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company's provision for income taxes included charges of $24 related to taxes on the distributions of foreign earnings, which were previously asserted to be indefinitely reinvested, and $4 to adjust provisional amounts related to the Tax Act.
