Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation and Proposed Merger The interim Consolidated Financial Statements of Arconic Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Arconic” or the “Company”) are unaudited. These Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. The results reported in these Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. The 2022 year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). This Form 10-Q report should be read in conjunction with Arconic’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which includes all disclosures required by GAAP. In accordance with GAAP, certain situations require management to make estimates based on judgments and assumptions, which may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. They also may affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates upon subsequent resolution of identified matters. References in these Notes to “ParentCo” refer to Arconic Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (through March 31, 2020, at which time it was renamed Howmet Aerospace Inc. (“Howmet”)). On April 1, 2020 (the “Separation Date”), ParentCo separated into two standalone, publicly-traded companies, Arconic Corporation and Howmet (the “Separation”). In connection with the Separation, as of March 31, 2020, the Company and Howmet entered into several agreements to effect the Separation, including a Separation and Distribution Agreement and a Tax Matters Agreement. See Note A to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II Item 8 of Arconic Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for additional information. Also, references in these Notes to “2016 Separation Transaction” refer to the November 1, 2016 separation of Alcoa Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation, into two standalone, publicly-traded companies, Arconic Inc. and Alcoa Corporation. Proposed Merger. On May 4, 2023, Arconic entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to be acquired by funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc., along with a minority investment from funds managed by affiliates of Irenic Capital Management LP, in an all-cash transaction that values Arconic at an enterprise value of approximately $5,000 (the “Transaction”). On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Company’s stockholders will receive $30.00 per share in cash in exchange for each share of outstanding common stock. The Transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by the Company’s stockholders. The Merger Agreement was adopted by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders on July 25, 2023. Upon the closing of the Transaction, Arconic will operate as a privately-held company. In the 2023 second quarter, Arconic recognized $11 in Restructuring and other charges (see Note E) on the accompanying Statement of Consolidated Operations for incurred fees and expenses associated with the Transaction. Additional merger-related costs are expected to be recognized in a future period; however, such amounts are contingent on the outcome of the Transaction. Assuming the Transaction closes, the Company expects to recognize approximately $60 of additional acquisition-related expenses, which have not been accrued to date, associated with contractual agreements that are contingent upon the closing of the Transaction.
