(a)
Included in Interest Expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income.
(b)
During the fourth quarter of 2016, management assessed earnings estimates used in calculating the fair value of the U.S. Water Services contingent consideration liability and determined an adjustment was necessary to the liability’s carrying amount based on its assessment. As a result, we recorded a reduction of $13.6 million to the liability’s carrying amount which resulted in an after-tax gain of the same amount presented within Operating Expenses – Other in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
(c)
Payments and changes in cash flow projections reflect the impact of a modification to the shareholder agreement in the first quarter of 2017 which provided participants a one-time election to sell shares at a determined price. Participants representing approximately half of the outstanding contingent consideration shares made the election, and were paid in the first half of 2017.
