In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Tredegar Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Tredegar,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) contain all adjustments necessary to state fairly, in all material respects, Tredegar’s consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2019, the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, and the consolidated changes in shareholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All such adjustments, unless otherwise detailed in the notes to the consolidated interim financial statements, are deemed to be of a normal, recurring nature.
The Company operates on a calendar fiscal year except for the Aluminum Extrusions segment, which operates on a 52/53-week fiscal year basis.  As such, the fiscal third quarter for 2019 and 2018 for this segment references 13-week periods ended September 29, 2019 and September 23, 2018, respectively.  The Company does not believe the impact of reporting the results of this segment as stated above is material to the consolidated financial results.
The financial position data as of December 31, 2018 that is included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements provided in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (“2018 Form 10-K”) but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

Restricted cash as of September 30, 2019 consists of funds received in the second and third quarters of 2019 for the sale of the PE Films idle manufacturing facility in Shanghai, China. The sale of the facility closed in the third quarter of 2019, and a pre-tax gain of $6.3 million was recognized. The Company is in the process of liquidating the legal entity that previously operated the Shanghai facility and received the funds from the sale. Chinese government regulations limit the use of these funds to the purposes of the liquidating entity until the completion of the liquidation process, which the Company expects to be concluded within the next six months.
Trade Name Accelerated Amortization
On October 30, 2019, Bonnell Aluminum announced a rebranding initiative. Bonnell and its subsidiaries, AACOA and Futura, will now all fall under the Bonnell Aluminum brand. The usage of the AACOA and Futura trade names will be discontinued at the end of 2019. In September 2019, management committed to implement the rebranding initiative. Prior to this commitment, the AACOA trade name had an indefinite useful life and a remaining net book value of $4.8 million, and the Futura trade name had an estimated remaining useful life of approximately 10.5 years and a remaining net book value of $5.4 million. As a result of the rebranding initiative, there was a change in estimate in the useful lives for both trade names to 4 months, the point at which the rebranding initiative is estimated to be substantially complete. The non-cash amounts amortized and to be amortized in the third and fourth quarters of 2019, respectively, related to these trade names are as follows:
