In the second quarter of 2013, Titan received a final insurance settlement payment regarding an earthquake Titan Europe's wheel manufacturing facility in Finale Emilia, Italy experienced in May 2012, prior to Titan's acquisition of Titan Europe. As a result of this information, the purchase price allocation of the Titan Europe acquisition has changed from that reported in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, and Titan has recorded a bargain purchase gain of $11.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In 2011, Titan purchased a 70% controlling interest in AII Holding, Inc. (AII). The fair value of the identified assets acquired less liabilities assumed exceeded the fair value of the consideration transferred and noncontrolling interest. Therefore, a bargain purchase gain of $0.3 million was recorded on the transaction.
