Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. The terms “AptarGroup”, “Aptar”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” as used herein refer to AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In the opinion of management, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Also, certain financial position data included herein was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year. There are many uncertainties regarding the current COVID-19 pandemic, including the availability, adoption, and effectiveness of a vaccine, the length of time it takes for normal economic and operating conditions to resume, additional governmental actions that may be taken and/or extensions of time for restrictions that have been imposed to date, and numerous other uncertainties. The pandemic has impacted certain markets within our business, our operations and our financial results during the three months ended March 31, 2021. No impairments were recorded as of March 31, 2021 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. Due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation, future results could change and therefore our results could be materially impacted. ADOPTION OF RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. Effective January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2020-10, Codification Improvements, which updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving disclosure requirements to align with the SEC's regulations, and no material impacts were noted. Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, issued by the FASB in June 2016, as well as the clarifying amendments subsequently issued. We applied the guidance using a modified retrospective approach and accordingly recognized an amount of $1.4 million as the cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings in the first quarter of 2020. This is based on management's best estimates of specific losses on individual exposures particularly on current trade receivables, as well as the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. On an ongoing basis, we will contemplate forward-looking economic conditions in recording lifetime expected credit losses for our financial assets measured at cost, such as our trade receivables and certain other assets. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, which provides guidance to simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairm ent by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. As a result, impairment charges are required for the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value up to the amount of its allocated goodwill. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2020 and did not record any impairment charges. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, which amends disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The new standard modifies disclosure requirements including removing requirements to disclose the valuation process for Level 3 measurements and adding requirements to disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 measurements. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2020 and no material impacts were noted. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, which amends disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that are no longer considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. We adopted the standard during the fourth quarter of 2020 and appropriate disclosures are included in the notes to the financial statements to the extent applicable. The provisions of the new standard do not have any effect on our financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 to help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (hosting arrangement) by providing guidance for determining when the arrangement includes a software license. The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). Accordingly, the amendments require an entity (customer) in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense. The amendments also require the entity (customer) to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement, which includes reasonably certain renewals. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2020 and no material impacts were noted. Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. INCOME TAXES We compute taxes on income in accordance with the tax rules and regulations of the many taxing authorities where the income is earned. The income tax rates imposed by these taxing authorities may vary substantially. Taxable income may differ from pre-tax income for financial accounting purposes. To the extent that these differences create timing differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and our reported amount in the financial statements, an appropriate provision for deferred income taxes is made. We maintain our assertion that the cash and distributable reserves at our non-U.S. affiliates are indefinitely reinvested. At March 31, 2021, under currently enacted laws, we do not have a balance of foreign earnings that will be subject to U.S. taxation. We will provide for the necessary withholding and local income taxes when management decides that an affiliate should make a distribution. These decisions are made taking into consideration the financial requirements of the non-U.S. affiliates and the global cash management goals of the Company. We provide a liability for the amount of unrecognized tax benefits from uncertain tax positions. This liability is provided whenever we determine that a tax benefit will not meet a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition. We are subject to the examination of our returns and other tax matters by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities and governmental bodies. We believe that an adequate provision for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations exists. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in our tax audits are resolved in a manner inconsistent with our expectations, we could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs. The resolution of each of these audits is not expected to be material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
