Divestitures [Abstract] |
Mergers, Acquisitions and Dispositions Disclosures [Text Block] | DIVESTITURES Rubber Additives Divestiture On November 1, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries completed the sale of its rubber additives (including Crystex™ insoluble sulfur and Santoflex™ antidegradants) and other product lines and related assets and technology of the global tire additives business ("rubber additives") of its Additives & Functional Products ("AFP") segment. The sale did not include the Eastman Impera™ and other performance resins product lines of the tire additives business. The Company provided certain business transition and post-closing services to the buyer on agreed terms, which were completed in 2022. The business was not reported as a discontinued operation because the sale did not have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The total estimated consideration, after estimates of contingent consideration and post-closing adjustments and ongoing agreements through October 2027, was $640 million. The additional amount of consideration of up to $75 million is to be paid based on performance of divested rubber additives through December 2023. The divestiture resulted in a $594 million loss (including cumulative translation adjustment liquidation of $23 million and certain costs to sell of $7 million), of which $42 million was recorded in 2022. The major classes of divested assets and liabilities were as follows:
(Dollars in millions) |
Assets divested |
Trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts | $ | 107 |
Inventories | 94 |
Other assets | 26 |

Liabilities divested |
Payables and other liabilities | 48 |
Post-employment obligations | 34 |
Other liabilities | 18 |
Liabilities divested | 100 |

Separately, the Company recognized $5 million and $15 million of transaction costs for the divested business in 2022 and 2021, respectively. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred and are included in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" ("SG&A") in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings. Adhesives Resins Divestiture On April 1, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries completed the sale of its adhesives resins business, which included hydrocarbon resins (including Eastman Impera™ tire resins), pure monomer resins, polyolefin polymers, rosins and dispersions, and oleochemical and fatty-acid based resins product lines ("adhesives resins"), of its AFP segment. The Company provided certain business transition and post-closing services to the buyer on agreed terms, which were completed in 2022. The business was not reported as a discontinued operation because the sale did not have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Included in the adhesives resins divestiture was the 50 percent interest in a joint venture that has a manufacturing facility in Nanjing, China, which produces Eastotac™ hydrocarbon tackifying resins for pressure-sensitive adhesives, caulks, and sealants. The total estimated consideration, after estimates of post-closing adjustments, was $957 million. The divestiture resulted in a $1 million loss (including cumulative translation adjustment liquidation of $10 million and certain costs to sell of $13 million). The major classes of divested assets and liabilities as of the date of the divestiture were as follows:
(Dollars in millions) |
Assets divested |
Trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts | $ | 129 |
Inventories | 163 |
Other assets | 21 |
Properties, net of accumulated depreciation | 303 |
