Basis of Presentation | |
Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ball Corporation and its controlled affiliates, including its consolidated variable interest entities (collectively Ball, the company, we or our), and have been prepared by the company. Certain information and footnote disclosures, including critical and significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted for this quarterly presentation. Results of operations for the periods shown are not necessarily indicative of results for the year, particularly in view of the seasonality in the packaging segments and the variability of contract sales in the company’s aerospace segment. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 6, 2018, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (annual report). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires Ball’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates are based on historical experience and various assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Ball’s management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis and adjusts or revises the estimates as circumstances change. As future events and their impacts cannot be determined with precision, actual results may differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to fairly state the results of the periods presented. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation. |

Accounting Pronouncements | 2. Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Revenue from Contracts with Customers On January 1, 2018, Ball adopted Accounting Standard Codification 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” and all related amendments (collectively, the new revenue standard) applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. The cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard was recognized as an adjustment to the retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2018. Comparative periods have not been restated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the consolidated January 1, 2018, balance sheet for the adoption of the new revenue standard is as follows: ($ in millions) Balance at December 31, 2017 Adjustments Due to Adoption Balance at January 1, Assets Receivables, net $ 1,634 $ 307 $ 1,941 Inventories, net 1,526 (241) 1,285 Other current assets 150 (4) 146 Liabilities Other current liabilities 540 17 557 Deferred taxes 695 7 702 Shareholders' equity Retained earnings 4,987 37 5,024 Accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) (656) 1 (655) In accordance with the disclosure requirements of the new revenue standard, the impact of adoption on our consolidated statement of earnings and balance sheet was as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 ($ in millions, except per share amounts) As Reported Balances Without Adoption Effect of Change Higher (Lower) As Reported Balances Without Adoption Effect of Change Higher (Lower) Net sales $ 3,101 $ 3,143 $ (42) $ 5,886 $ 5,895 $ (9) Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) (2,484) (2,522) 38 (4,721) (4,728) 7 Earnings before interest and taxes 243 247 (4) 469 471 (2) Tax (provision) benefit (46) (45) (1) (80) (79) (1) Net earnings attributable to Ball Corporation 119 124 (5) 244 247 (3) Basic earnings per share 0.34 0.36 (0.02) 0.70 0.71 (0.01) Diluted earnings per share 0.34 0.35 (0.01) 0.68 0.69 (0.01) June 30, 2018 ($ in millions) As Reported Balances Without Adoption Effect of Change Assets Receivables, net $ 2,013 $ 1,722 $ 291 Inventories, net 1,257 1,489 (232) Other current assets 206 210 (4) Liabilities Other current liabilities 558 545 13 Deferred taxes 666 659 7 Shareholders' equity Retained earnings 5,199 5,165 34 Accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) (767) (768) 1 The following summarizes the significant changes to the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of earnings and consolidated balance sheet as a result of the new revenue standard adopted on January 1, 2018, compared to if the company had continued to recognize sales under the previous revenue recognition guidance: · For the metal beverage packaging segments and, to a lesser extent, in our food and aerosol packaging segment, the new revenue standard accelerated the recognition of certain sales to be over time such that a portion of sales was recognized prior to shipment or delivery of goods. The accelerated recognition of sales also caused the company’s inventory to decrease with an offsetting increase to unbilled receivables to the extent the amounts had not yet been invoiced to the customer and right to payment was unconditional. · For the aerospace segment, sales from the majority of the company’s contracts continue to be recognized over time under the “cost-to-cost” method based on the continuous transfer of control to the customer, which is consistent with how sales were recognized under previous revenue recognition guidance. Therefore, no cumulative adjustment was required to be made upon adoption. · Ball recognized a contract liability when the customer’s payment, or Ball’s unconditional right to that consideration, preceded the company’s performance. Share-Based Compensation In May 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to provide clarity and reduce diversity in practice, cost and complexity when applying stock compensation accounting guidance regarding modifications to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments specify that all changes to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment award will require an entity to apply modification accounting unless all of the following are met: (1) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance was applied prospectively on January 1, 2018, and it did not have an impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Costs In March 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to change the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. Employers are required to report the service cost component in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the associated employees during the period. The other components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. The amendments also permit only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. This guidance was adopted by the company on January 1, 2018, and the capitalization of the service cost component was applied on a prospective basis. Curtailment and settlement losses are reported by the company in business consolidation and other activities. All other non-service components are immaterial and will be presented in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses beginning in 2018. These non-service costs were reported in both cost of sales and SG&A in prior periods; however, due to immateriality in all prior periods presented, no retrospective adjustments were considered necessary. Such costs were $6 million and $12 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and $21 million for the full year 2017. Sales of Nonfinancial Assets In February 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to clarify the scope and to add guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The guidance requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with guidance for consolidation, including instances in which the business is considered to be in substance real estate. This guidance was applied on January 1, 2018, using a modified retrospective approach and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Definition of a Business In January 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to further clarify the definition of a business in determining whether or not a company has acquired or sold a business. The amendments provide a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. If the screen is not met, the amendments in this update (1) require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output and (2) remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The amendments also narrow the definition of the term “output” so that the term is consistent with how outputs are described in the new guidance for revenue recognition. The guidance was applied prospectively for Ball on January 1, 2018, and did not have an impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Statement of Cash Flows In November 2016, accounting guidance was issued requiring the statement of cash flows to reconcile the change in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This guidance was applied retrospectively on January 1, 2018, and the impact on the 2017 statement of cash flow was not material. The impact on the 2016 statement of cash flows was material due to approximately $2 billion of restricted cash held by the company at December 2015, in an acquisition escrow account. In July 2016, the funds in the escrow account were used to pay a portion of the cash component of the acquisition price of Rexam. The impact on the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was a $2 million reduction in cash flows from operating activities. In August 2016, accounting guidance was issued addressing the following eight specific cash flow issues: · Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs · Settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing · Contingent consideration payments made after a business combination · Proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims · Proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (including bank-owned life insurance policies) · Distributions received from equity method investees · Beneficial interests in securitization transactions · Separately identifiable cash flows and, for cash flows with aspects of more than one class which are not separately identifiable, classification based on the predominant source for those cash flows This guidance was applied retrospectively on January 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Intra-Entity Transfers In October 2016, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued that require entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, as opposed to when the asset is sold to an unrelated third party. The amendments also eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. This guidance was applied on a modified retrospective basis on January 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Financial Assets and Liabilities In January 2016, accounting guidance was issued on the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities (equity securities and financial liabilities) under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Subsequent guidance was issued in February 2018 to clarify certain aspects of the guidance issued in January 2016. The guidance modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any related changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. An exception applies to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under the guidance and, as such, these investments may be measured at cost. The guidance was applied on January 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements . New Accounting Guidance Share Based Payments In June 2018, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to simplify share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The amendments specify that existing guidance for share-based payment transactions with employees applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that existing guidance does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of revenue contracts. The guidance is effective for Ball on January 1, 2019, and is not expected to have a material effect on the company’s consolidated financial statements. Stranded Tax Effects In February 2018, accounting guidance was issued to permit the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings of stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law in December 2017. The guidance is effective for Ball on January 1, 2019, and the company is currently assessing whether or not to early adopt the new guidance. Financial Assets In June 2016, amendments to existing guidance were issued requiring financial assets or a group of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected when finalized. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that will be deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This guidance affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The guidance will be effective on January 1, 2020. The company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. Lease Accounting In February 2016, lease accounting guidance was issued which, for operating leases, will require a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on its balance sheet. The guidance also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. In July 2018, targeted improvements were issued to provide an additional transition method, which is optional, that allows entities to apply the new leases standard upon adoption by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This is in addition to the existing modified retrospective transition method that requires entities to apply the new standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. Additionally, the amendments included a lessor-specific practical expedient, by underlying asset class, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease components, similar to the practical expedient already made available by the standard to lessees. The lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the nonlease component or components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both of the following are true: the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the nonlease component(s) and associated lease component; and the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Codification improvements were also were issued on a variety of topics within the leasing standard, which represent minor corrections or improvements and are not expected to have a significant impact on accounting practices. We have established a cross-functional implementation team, which includes representatives from all of our business segments. We are utilizing a bottoms-up approach to analyze the impact of the new standard by reviewing our current lease population, including completeness, to identify potential accounting, data and other operational changes that might be required under the new guidance. In addition, we are assessing changes to our business processes, systems and controls to support recognition and disclosure under the standard upon adoption. The guidance will be effective for Ball on January 1, 2019, and it is expected that a material amount of lease assets and liabilities will be recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. |

Business Segment Information | |
Business Segment Information | 3. Business Segment Information Ball’s operations are organized and reviewed by management along its product lines and geographical areas and presented in the five reportable segments outlined below: Beverage packaging, North and Central America : Consists of operations in the U.S., Canada and Mexico that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers throughout those countries. Beverage packaging, South America : Consists of operations in Brazil, Argentina and Chile that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers throughout most of South America. Beverage packaging, Europe : Consists of operations in numerous countries in Europe, including Russia, that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers throughout most of Europe. Food and aerosol packaging : Consists of operations in the U.S., Europe, Canada, Mexico, Argentina and India that manufacture and sell steel food and aerosol containers, extruded aluminum aerosol containers and aluminum slugs. Aerospace : Consists of operations that manufacture and sell aerospace and other related products and provide services used in the defense, civil space and commercial space industries. As presented below, other consists of non-reportable segments in Africa, Middle East and Asia (AMEA) and Asia Pacific that manufacture and sell metal beverage containers, undistributed corporate expenses, intercompany eliminations and other business activities. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those in the consolidated financial statements and are discussed in Note 1. The company also has investments in operations in Guatemala, Panama, South Korea, the U.S. and Vietnam that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and, accordingly, those results are not included in segment sales or earnings. On July 31, 2018, Ball sold its U.S. steel food and steel aerosol packaging business and formed a joint venture, Ball Metalpack. Beginning in the third quarter 2018, Ball’s 49 percent ownership of Ball Metalpack's financial results will be reported in equity in results of affiliates within Ball's consolidated statements of earnings. The financial results of Ball's existing global aluminum aerosol and Argentine tinplate steel aerosol businesses will be reported as a non-reportable segment within Other.

Acquisitions and Dispositions | 4. Acquisitions and Dispositions On July 31, 2018, Ball sold its U.S. steel food and steel aerosol packaging business and formed a joint venture, Ball Metalpack. In exchange for the sale of this business, Ball received approximately $600 million in after-tax cash proceeds, subject to customary closing adjustments, as well as 49 percent ownership of Ball Metalpack, which will be reported in other assets as an equity method investment on Ball’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. This transaction enhances our ability to return additional value to shareholders via share repurchases. At June 30, 2018, the assets and liabilities of the U.S. steel food and steel aerosol packaging business are presented as held for sale on Ball’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Prior to the classification of the assets and liabilities to held for sale, the company assessed the carrying value of certain working capital and other liability balances and then conducted an impairment test of the goodwill and of the other long-lived assets of the U.S. steel food and steel aerosol packaging business. No impairment or other adjustments were required. Upon classification of the assets and liabilities to held for sale, the carrying value of the disposal group as a whole was compared to the fair value of the business less costs to sell. The approach to establish fair value was consistent with that outlined in the critical accounting policy for ‘Recoverability of Goodwill and Intangible Assets’ in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Following this review, an allowance of $41 million was applied to the carrying value of the assets held for sale. This charge has been presented in business consolidation and other activities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of earnings. The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the U.S. steel food and steel aerosol packaging business presented as held for sale: ($ in millions) June 30, 2018 Assets: Receivables $ 78 Inventories 231 Property, plant and equipment 192 Goodwill 354 Other assets 33 Allowance for valuation of assets held for sale (41) Assets held for sale (a) $ 847 Liabilities: Accounts payable $ 198 Other liabilities 27 Liabilities held for sale $ 225 (a) At June 30, 2018, the company presented an additional $3 million of assets held for sale that are unrelated to Ball Metalpack. The assets sold included nine plants that manufacture and sell steel food and steel aerosol containers. The manufacturing plants were located in Canton and Columbus, Ohio; Milwaukee and Deforest, Wisconsin; Chestnut Hill, Tennessee; Horsham, Pennsylvania; Springdale, Arkansas; and Oakdale, California. The accounting for this transaction is not complete as of the date these financial statements are available for issuance. |

Revenue from Contracts with Customers | 5. Revenue from Contracts with Customers Disaggregation of Sales The company disaggregates net sales by reportable segments as disclosed in Note 3, and based on the timing of transfer of control for goods and services as explained below. The transfer of control for goods and services may occur at a point in time or over time; in other words, sales may be recognized over the course of the underlying contract, or they may occur at a single point in time based upon the transfer of control. This distinction is discussed in further detail below. The company determined that disaggregating sales into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of sales and cash flows are affected by economic factors. As noted in Note 3, the company’s business consists of five reportable segments, which encompass disaggregated product lines and geographical areas: (1) beverage packaging, North and Central America; (2) beverage packaging, South America; (3) beverage packaging, Europe; (4) food and aerosol packaging; and (5) aerospace. The following table disaggregates the company’s net sales based on the timing of transfer of control: Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 ($ in millions) Point in Time Over Time Total Point in Time Over Time Total Total net sales $ 755 $ 2,346 $ 3,101 $ 1,417 $ 4,469 $ 5,886 Contract Balances The company enters into contracts to sell beverage packaging, food and aerosol packaging, and aerospace products. The payment terms and conditions in customer contracts vary. Those customers that prepay are represented by the contract liabilities below until the performance obligations are satisfied. Contract assets would exist when sales have been recorded (i.e., control of the goods or services has been transferred to the customer) but customer payment is contingent on a future event beyond the passage of time (i.e., satisfaction of additional performance obligations). The company does not have any contract assets. Unbilled receivables, which are not classified as contract assets, represent arrangements in which sales have been recorded prior to billing and right to payment is unconditional. The opening and closing balances of the company’s current and noncurrent contract liabilities are as follows: Contracts Contract Liabilities Liabilities ($ in millions) (Current) (Noncurrent) Balance at December 31, 2017 $ 45 $ — Increase 20 6 Balance at June 30, 2018 $ 65 $ 6 During the six months ended June 30, 2018, contract liabilities increased by $26 million, which is net of cash received of $116 million and amounts recognized as sales of $90 million, all of which related to current contract liabilities. The amount of sales recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2018, that were included in the opening contract liabilities balances was $45 million, all of which related to current contract liabilities. The difference between the opening and closing balances of the company’s contract liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the company’s performance and the customer’s payment. Current contract liabilities are classified within other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and noncurrent contract liabilities are classified within other liabilities. The company also recognized sales of $1 million and $5 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively, from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in prior periods. This amount of sales is a result of changes in the transaction price of the company’s contracts with customers. Contract Costs The company has determined that there are no material costs that meet the capitalization criteria for costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. Practical Expedients For the company’s contracts that have an original duration of one year or less, the company elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts and has not disclosed the transaction price for the future performance obligations as of the end of each reporting period or when the company expects to recognize sales. The company has elected the sales tax practical expedient; therefore, sales and other taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from the transaction price. For shipping and handling activities performed after a customer obtains control of the goods, the company has elected to account for these costs as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the goods; therefore, these activities are not assessed as separate performance obligations. The company has also elected the significant financing component practical expedient which allows the company to not assess whether the contract has a significant financing component if, at contract inception, the expectation is that the contract duration is less than one year. Beverage Packaging and Food and Aerosol Products Performance Obligations At contract inception, the company assesses the goods and services promised in its contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer goods or services to the customer. The performance obligation may be represented by a good or service (or series of goods or services) that is distinct, or by a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. In each instance, the company treats the promise to transfer the customer goods or services as a single performance obligation. To identify the performance obligations, the company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The company has determined that the following distinct goods and services represent separate performance obligations: · Manufacture of food and aerosol containers, which may be generic or unique; · Manufacture of beverage cans, which may be generic or unique; and · Manufacture of beverage, food, and aerosol lids and ends, which may be generic or unique. Performance obligations for products with no alternative use are recognized over time, when the company has manufactured a unique item and has an enforceable right to payment. Conversely, generic products with alternative use are recognized at a point in time. Contracts may be short-term or long-term, with varying payment terms. Ball’s payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Customers pay in accordance with negotiated terms, which are typically triggered upon ownership transfer. All payment terms are less than one year. For these contracts, the transaction price is determined upon establishment of the contract that contains the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchased. Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations In the context of the revenue recognition standard, enforceable contracts are those that have an enforceable right to payment, which Ball typically has once a binding forecast or purchase order (or similar evidence) is in place and Ball produces under the contract. Within Ball’s packaging segments, enforceable contracts as defined all have a duration of less than one year. Contracts that have an original duration of less than one year are excluded from the requirement to disclose remaining performance obligations based on the company’s election to use the practical expedient. The nature of the remaining performance obligations within these contracts, as well as the nature of the variability and how it will be resolved, are described in the section below. Significant Judgments Timing of Recognition Within the beverage packaging and food and aerosol segments, performance obligations are recognized both over time and at a point in time. The determination that sales should be recognized at a point in time most often results from the existence of an alternative use for the product. Cans and ends that are not customized prior to delivery are considered to have alternative use and sales are recognized at the point of control transfer. Determining when control transfer occurs requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of when sales are recognized. The new revenue accounting standard provides five indicators that a customer has obtained control of an asset: 1) present right to payment; 2) transfer of legal title; 3) physical possession; 4) significant risks and rewards of ownership; and 5) customer acceptance. The company considers control to have transferred for these products upon shipment or delivery, depending on the legal terms of the contract, because the company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the company has transferred physical possession of the asset or the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset. The company determines that control transfers to a customer as described above and provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods. For performance obligations related to products that are specialized with no alternative use (e.g., specialized sizes or customer-specific materials, or labeled with customer-specific artwork), the company transfers control and records sales over time. The recognition of sales occurs over time as goods are manufactured and Ball has an enforceable right to payment for those goods, which is an output method. Determining a measure of progress requires management to make judgments that impact the timing of when sales are recognized. The company has determined the above provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods to the customer. The number of units manufactured that have an enforceable right to payment is the best measure of depicting the company’s performance as control is transferred. The customer obtains value as each unit is produced against a binding contract. The enforceable right to payment may be explicit or implied in the contract. If the enforceable right to payment is not explicit in the contract, Ball must consider if there is an implied right based on customer relationships or previous business practices and applicable law. Typically, Ball has an enforceable right to payment of costs plus a reasonable margin once a binding forecast or purchase order (or similar evidence) is in place and Ball produces under the contract. Determining the Transaction Price including Variable Consideration In making its determination of stand-alone selling price, Ball maximizes its use of observable inputs. Stand-alone selling price is then used to allocate total consideration proportionally to the various performance obligations within a contract. To estimate variable consideration, we may apply both the “expected value” method and “most likely amount” method based on the form of variable consideration, according to which method would provide the best prediction of consideration to be received from our customers. The expected value method involves a probability-weighted determination of the expected amount, whereas the most likely amount method identifies the single most likely outcome in a range of possible amounts. In certain cases, both methods may be used within a single contract if multiple forms of variable consideration exist. However, once a method has been applied to one form of variable consideration, it is applied consistently throughout the contract term. The primary types of variable consideration present in the company’s contracts are per-unit price changes, volume discounts and rebates. Once variable consideration has been estimated, it will be constrained if a significant reversal of the cumulative amounts of sales is probable in the context of the contract. Aerospace Performance Obligations At contract inception, the company assesses the goods and services promised in its contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer goods or services to the customer. The performance obligation may be represented by a good or service (or a series of goods or services) that is distinct, or by a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. In each of these scenarios, the company treats the promise to transfer the customer goods or services as a single performance obligation. To identify its performance obligations, the company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The company has determined that the following distinct goods and services represent separate performance obligations: · Manufacture and delivery of distinct spacecraft and/or hardware components; · Research reports, for contracts under which such reports are the sole or primary deliverables; · Design, add-on, or special studies for contracts under which such studies have stand-alone value or for which a material right exists due to discounted pricing; and · Warranty and performance guarantees beyond standard repair/replacement. Performance obligations with no alternative use are recognized over time, when the company has an enforceable right to payment for efforts completed to-date. Because of sales contract payment schedules, limitations on funding, and contract terms, our sales and accounts receivable generally include amounts that have been earned but not yet billed. Our payment terms vary by the type and location of our customer and the products or services offered. All payment terms are less than one year. Contracts are often modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. We consider contract modifications to exist when the modification either creates new or revised enforceable rights and obligations. Most of our contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integration service provided in the context of the contract, and such contract modifications are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to sales (either as an increase or reduction of sales) on a cumulative catch-up basis. Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations The table below discloses: (1) the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of the end of the reporting period for contracts with an original duration of greater than one year and (2) when the company expects to record sales on these multi-year contracts. ($ in millions) Next Twelve Months Thereafter Total Sales expected to be recognized on multi-year contracts in place as of June 30, 2018 $ 915 $ 912 $ 1,827 The contracts with original durations of less than one year, which are excluded from the table above based on the company’s election of the practical expedient, are primarily related to contracts where control will be fully transferred to the customers in less than one year. The nature of the remaining performance obligations within these contracts, as well as the nature of the variability and how it will be resolved, are described in the section below. Significant Judgments Timing of Recognition Within the aerospace segment, performance obligations are recognized over time. Aerospace contracts involve specialized and unique products that are tailored to the specific needs of the customer, such as a spacecraft or other hardware conforming to the specifications required by the customer, and as such, no alternative use exists. When there is an enforceable right to payment at cost plus reasonable margin for performance completed to date, the sales are recorded over time as the goods are manufactured or services are performed. Determining a measure of progress requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of recording sales. Sales under long-term contracts in the aerospace segment are primarily recognized using percentage-of-completion under the cost-to-cost method of accounting, which is an input method. Under this method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date versus the total estimated costs upon completion of the performance obligation. The cost-to-cost method best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer as we incur costs on our contracts. The two primary types of long-term sales contracts utilized are cost-type contracts, which are agreements to perform for cost plus an agreed-upon profit component, and fixed price sales contracts, which are completed for a fixed price. Cost-type sales contracts can have different types of fee arrangements, including fixed-fee, cost, milestone and performance incentive fees, award fees or a combination thereof. At the inception of contract performance, we estimate sales associated with base, incentive and other fees exclusive of any constraint. In other words, we estimate sales to the extent that it is not probable a significant reversal would occur over the period of contract performance. The company has determined that the above provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods to the customer and is the best measure of depicting the company’s performance as control is transferred to customers. Determining the Transaction Price including Variable Consideration Due to the unique and customized nature of deliverables within aerospace contracts, a readily observable selling price for a similar good is not typically available; therefore, in making its determination of stand-alone selling price, the company generally applies the “expected cost plus a margin” approach (whereby the transaction price is allocated based on the relative amount of costs plus an appropriate margin). Use of the expected cost plus a margin approach requires Ball to determine the expected costs for each performance obligation, as well as an appropriate margin (i.e., cost to cost percentage of completion). The calculation is made at contract inception to determine the allocation of consideration. Uncertainty as to the total amount that will be paid by the customer (such as the exact amount of costs that will be incurred and fees that will be earned by Ball Aerospace to satisfy the contractual requirements) gives rise to variable consideration. To estimate variable consideration, we typically apply the “most likely amount” method or the “expected value” method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. The most likely amount method identifies the single most likely outcome in a range of possible amounts, while the expected value method involves a probability-weighted determination of the expected amount. The most likely amount method is used primarily when the possible outcomes are binary (i.e., either the cost/fee will be incurred or it will not). In certain cases, both methods may be used within a single contract if multiple forms of variable consideration exist. However, once a method has been applied to one form of variable consideration, it is applied consistently throughout the contract term. The primary types of variable consideration present in the company’s contracts are cost reimbursements, performance award fees, incremental funding and finalization of government rates. These types of arrangements are most commonly (though not exclusively) estimated based on the “most likely” method. Once variable consideration has been estimated, it will be constrained if a significant reversal of the cumulative amount of sales is probable in the context of the contract. |

The current supply of metal beverage packaging exceeds demand in China, resulting in pricing pressure and negative impacts on the profitability of our Beverage Asia reporting unit. If it becomes an expectation that this oversupply situation will continue for an extended period of time, the company may be required to record a noncash impairment charge for some or all of the goodwill associated with the Beverage Asia reporting unit, the total balance of which was $78 million at June 30, 2018. |

At June 30, 2018, taking into account outstanding letters of credit, approximately $1 billion was available under existing long-term, revolving credit facilities. In addition to these facilities, the company had approximately $905 million of short-term uncommitted credit facilities available at June 30, 2018, of which $167 million was outstanding and due on demand. At December 31, 2017, the company had $340 million outstanding under short-term uncommitted credit facilities. In March 2018, Ball issued $750 million of 4.875 percent senior notes and used the proceeds to repay $315 million of its Term A loan and outstanding multi-currency revolver and short-term credit facility borrowings. The fair value of long-term debt was estimated to be $7.4 billion at June 30, 2018, and $7.0 billion at December 31, 2017. The fair value reflects the market rates at each period end for debt with credit ratings similar to the company’s ratings and is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Rates currently available to the company for loans with similar terms and maturities are used to estimate the fair value of long-term debt based on discounted cash flows. Ball provides letters of credit in the ordinary course of business to secure liabilities recorded in connection with certain self-insurance arrangements. Letters of credit outstanding were $28 million at June 30, 2018, and $33 million at December 31, 2017. The company’s senior notes and senior credit facilities are guaranteed on a full, unconditional and joint and several basis by certain of the company’s material subsidiaries. Each of the guarantor subsidiaries is 100 percent owned by Ball Corporation. These guarantees are required in support of these notes and credit facilities, are coterminous with the terms of the respective note indentures and would require performance upon certain events of default referred to in the respective guarantees. Note 22 includes further details about the company’s debt guarantees and Note 23 contains further details, as well as required unaudited condensed consolidating financial information for the company, segregating the guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries as defined in the debt agreements. The U.S. note agreements and bank credit agreement contain certain restrictions relating to dividend payments, share repurchases, investments, financial ratios, guarantees and the incurrence of additional indebtedness. The most restrictive covenant is in the company’s bank credit agreement and requires the company to maintain a net leverage ratio (as defined) of no greater than 4.25 times at June 30, 2018. The company was in compliance with all loan agreements and debt covenants at June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, and has met all debt payment obligations. |

Taxes on Income | |
Taxes on Income | 15. Taxes on Income On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Act) was signed into law. In the fourth quarter of 2017, the company recorded tax expense of $83 million for the estimated impact of the mandatory deemed repatriation of its foreign earnings and revaluation of its U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities. The company’s review of the implications of the Act will be ongoing throughout 2018, and as such, adjustments to any of the previously recorded provisional estimates of the Act’s impact may be required. These provisional estimates recorded are as follows: · Reduction of U.S. federal corporate tax rate: The company recorded a provisional increase to tax expense of $52 million in 2017 for the estimated impact of revaluing its net deferred tax asset position in the U.S. at the new 21 percent corporate tax rate. While this remains a reasonable estimate, it may be impacted by other analyses related to the Act, including the calculation of the transition tax; · Transition tax: The company recorded a provisional increase to tax expense of $31 million in 2017 to reflect the impact of the tax on accumulated untaxed earnings and profits (E&P) of certain foreign affiliates. To determine the amount of the transition tax, the amount of the post-1986 E&P and the amount of non-U.S. income taxes paid on such earnings must be calculated for all relevant foreign affiliates. While this estimated impact is reasonable, additional information is being gathered and analyzed in order to more precisely calculate the final impact of the transition tax; · Valuation allowances: The company must assess the impact of the various aspects of the Act on its valuation allowance analyses, including the transition tax. As the company has recorded provisional estimates in 2017 with respect to certain aspects of the Act, any corresponding impacts from changes in valuation allowances are also provisional estimates; and · Cost recovery: The company made a provisional estimate in 2017 of the impact on its current tax expense and deferred tax liabilities associated with the new immediate expensing provisions for certain qualifying expenditures made after September 27, 2017. This estimate will be refined as the necessary computations are completed with respect to the full inventory of all qualifying 2017 expenditures. · Global intangible low-tax income (GILTI): The company has included a provisional estimate in the second quarter of 2018 to increase its annual effective tax rate for the current year impact of the new tax on GILTI. Any subsequent adjustments to this provisional estimate will be reflected on a current basis when determined. Based on a detailed analysis of its global income and other tax attributes that has concluded in the current reporting period, the company is now making the accounting policy election to treat taxes due for GILTI and the base erosion anti-abuse tax (BEAT) as a current-period expense as incurred. With the introduction of a modified territorial tax system in the Act, the company is continuing the review of its previously stated intent to indefinitely reinvest the undistributed earnings of certain of its foreign subsidiaries. As the company does not believe a reasonable estimate of the impact of the Act on its indefinite reinvestment assertion can currently be determined, no provisional estimate has been recorded as allowed by applicable accounting standards. When either a reasonable estimate or the final determination becomes available, the impact will be recorded in the corresponding reporting period, no later than December 2018. Due to the timing of the enactment and the complexity involved in applying the provisions of the Act, the company made reasonable estimates of the various effects and recorded provisional amounts in the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, and the year ended December 31, 2017. As the company collects and prepares necessary data, and continues to interpret the Act based on any additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service, and other standard-setting bodies, adjustments may be required to the provisional amounts that could materially affect the company’s financial position and results of operations as well as its effective tax rate in the period in which the required adjustments are made. In all cases, the analysis will be completed and any required adjustments will be recorded no later than December 2018. |

This estimate may change based on changes to the U.S. Pension Protection Act and actual plan asset performance, among other factors. Payments to participants in the unfunded German, Swedish and certain U.S. plans were $10 million in the first six months of 2018 compared to $12 million in the first six months of 2017 and are expected to be in the range of $21 million for the full year of 2018. |

Stock-Based Compensation Programs | |
Stock-Based Compensation Programs | 18. Stock-Based Compensation Programs The company has shareholder-approved stock plans under which options and stock-settled appreciation rights (SSARs) have been granted to employees at the market value of the company’s stock at the date of grant. In general, options and SSARs are exercisable in four equal installments commencing one year from the date of grant and terminating 10 years from the date of grant. There were 2.1 million stock options granted in January 2018. These options and SSARs cannot be traded in any equity market. However, based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model, options granted in January 2018, and options and SSARs granted in April 2017, and January 2017 have estimated weighted average fair values at the date of grant of $9.07 per share, $7.21 per share, and $8.54 per share, respectively. The actual value an employee may realize will depend on the excess of the stock price over the exercise price on the date the option or SSAR is exercised. Consequently, there is no assurance the value realized by an employee will approximate the value estimated. The fair values were estimated using the following weighted average assumptions: January 2018 April 2017 January 2017 Expected dividend yield 1.03 % 1.06 % 0.68 % Expected stock price volatility 21.98 % 18.89 % 20.49 % Risk-free interest rate 2.47 % 1.95 % 2.07 % Expected life of options (in years) 6.10 years 5.94 years 5.94 years During the first quarter of 2018 and 2017, the company’s board of directors granted 261,174 and 237,452 performance-contingent restricted stock units (PCEQs), respectively, to key employees. These PCEQs vest three years from the date of grant, and the number of shares available at the vesting date is based on the company’s growth in economic value added (EVA®) dollars in excess of the EVA® dollars generated in the calendar year prior to the grant as the minimum threshold, and can range from zero to 200 percent of each participant’s assigned PCEQ award. If the minimum performance goals are not met, the PCEQ will be forfeited. Grants under the plan are being accounted for as equity awards and compensation expense is recorded based upon the most probable outcome using the closing market price of the shares at the grant date. On a quarterly and annual basis, the company reassesses the probability of the goals being met and adjusts compensation expense as appropriate. |

Financial Instruments and Risk
Financial Instruments and Risk Management | 6 Months Ended |

Financial Instruments and Risk Management | |
Financial Instruments and Risk Management | 20. Financial Instruments and Risk Management The company employs established risk management policies and procedures, which seek to reduce the company’s commercial risk exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and prices of the company’s common stock with regard to common share repurchases and the company’s deferred compensation stock plan. However, there can be no assurance these policies and procedures will be successful. Although the instruments utilized involve varying degrees of credit, market and interest risk, the counterparties to the agreements are expected to perform fully under the terms of the agreements. The company monitors counterparty credit risk, including lenders, on a regular basis, but Ball cannot be certain that all risks will be discerned or that its risk management policies and procedures will always be effective. Additionally, in the event of default under the company’s master derivative agreements, the non-defaulting party has the option to offset any amounts owed with regard to open derivative positions. Commodity Price Risk Aluminum The company manages commodity price risk in connection with market price fluctuations of aluminum ingot through two different methods. First, the company enters into container sales contracts that include aluminum ingot-based pricing terms that generally reflect the same price fluctuations under commercial purchase contracts for aluminum sheet. The terms include fixed, floating or pass through aluminum ingot component pricing. Second, the company uses certain derivative instruments, including option and forward contracts as economic and cash flow hedges of commodity price risk where there are material differences between sales and purchase contracted pricing and volume. At June 30, 2018, the company had aluminum contracts limiting its aluminum exposure with notional amounts of approximately $784 million, of which $707 million received hedge accounting treatment. The aluminum contracts, which are recorded at fair value, include economic derivative instruments that are undesignated, as well as cash flow hedges that offset sales and purchase contracts of various terms and lengths. Cash flow hedges relate to forecasted transactions that will occur within the next two years. Included in shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2018, within accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss), is a net after-tax gain of $28 million associated with these contracts. A net after-tax gain of $27 million is expected to be recognized in the consolidated statement of earnings during the next 12 months, the majority of which will be offset by pricing changes in sales and purchase contracts, thus resulting in little or no earnings impact to Ball. Steel Most sales contracts involving our steel products either include provisions permitting the company to pass through some or all steel cost changes incurred, or they incorporate annually negotiated steel prices. Interest Rate Risk The company’s objective in managing exposure to interest rate changes is to minimize the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, the company may use a variety of interest rate swaps, collars and options to manage our mix of floating and fixed-rate debt. At June 30, 2018, the company had outstanding interest rate swap and option contracts with notional amounts of approximately $1.1 billion paying fixed rates expiring within the next two years. Currency Exchange Rate Risk The company’s objective in managing exposure to currency fluctuations is to limit the exposure of cash flows and earnings from changes associated with currency exchange rate changes through the use of various derivative contracts. In addition, at times the company manages earnings translation volatility through the use of currency option strategies, and the change in the fair value of those options is recorded in the company’s net earnings. The company’s currency translation risk results from the currencies in which we transact business. The company faces currency exposures in its global operations as a result of various factors including intercompany currency denominated loans, selling our products in various currencies, purchasing raw materials and equipment in various currencies and tax exposures not denominated in the functional currency. Sales contracts are negotiated with customers to reflect cost changes and, where there is not an exchange pass-through arrangement, the company uses forward and option contracts to manage currency exposures. At June 30, 2018, the company had outstanding exchange rate forward and option contracts with notional amounts totaling approximately $2.15 billion. Approximately $1 million of net after-tax loss related to these contracts is included in accumulated other comprehensive earnings at June 30, 2018, the majority of which is expected to be recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of earnings during the next 12 months. The contracts outstanding at June 30, 2018, expire within the next two years. Additionally, the company entered into a $1 billion cross-currency swap contract to partially mitigate the risk associated with foreign currency denominated intercompany debt incurred in 2016. Approximately $28 million of net after-tax loss related to this contract is included in accumulated other comprehensive earnings at June 30, 2018, of which the amount expected to be recognized during the next 12 months is dependent upon changes in currency exchange rates. As of June 30, 2018, the fair value of the cross-currency swap was a $92 million loss. The contract expires within the next three years. Common Stock Price Risk The company’s deferred compensation stock program is subject to variable plan accounting and, accordingly, is marked to fair value using the company’s closing stock price at the end of the related reporting period. The company entered into total return swaps to reduce the company’s earnings exposure to these fair value fluctuations that will be outstanding through March 2019 and that have a combined notional value of 2.6 million shares. Based on the current number of shares in the program, each $1 change in the company’s stock price has an insignificant impact on pretax earnings, net of the impact of related derivatives. As of June 30, 2018, the fair value of the swap was a $4 million loss. Collateral Calls The company’s agreements with its financial counterparties require the company to post collateral in certain circumstances when the negative mark to fair value of the derivative contracts exceeds specified levels. Additionally, the company has collateral posting arrangements with certain customers on these derivative contracts. The cash flows of the margin calls, if any, are shown within the investing section of the company’s consolidated statements of cash flows. As of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position was $9 million and $27 million, respectively, and no collateral was required to be posted. Fair Value Measurements The company has classified all applicable financial derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, and presented those values in the tables below. The company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

Option contracts are valued using a Black-Scholes model with observable market inputs for aluminum, currency and interest rates. We value each of our financial instruments either internally using a single valuation technique or from a reliable observable market source. The company does not adjust the value of its financial instruments except in determining the fair value of a trade that settles in the future by discounting the value to its present value using a12-month LIBOR rate as the discount factor. Ball performs validations of its internally derived fair values reported for our financial instruments on a quarterly basis utilizing counterparty valuation statements. Additionally, the company evaluates counterparty creditworthiness and, as of June 30, 2018, has not identified any circumstances requiring the reported values of its financial instruments to be adjusted.

Contingencies | |
Contingencies | 21. Contingencies Ball is subject to numerous lawsuits, claims or proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business, including actions related to product liability; personal injury; the use and performance of company products; warranty matters; patent, trademark or other intellectual property infringement; contractual liability; the conduct of the company’s business; tax reporting in domestic and foreign jurisdictions; workplace safety and environmental and other matters. The company has also been identified as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at several waste disposal sites under U.S. federal and related state environmental statutes and regulations and may have joint and several liability for any investigation and remediation costs incurred with respect to such sites. In addition, we have received claims alleging that employees in certain plants have suffered damages due to exposure to alleged workplace hazards. Some of these lawsuits, claims and proceedings involve substantial amounts, including as described below, and some of the environmental proceedings involve potential monetary costs or sanctions that may be material. Ball has denied liability with respect to many of these lawsuits, claims and proceedings and is vigorously defending such lawsuits, claims and proceedings. The company carries various forms of commercial, property and casualty, and other forms of insurance; however, such insurance may not be applicable or adequate to cover the costs associated with a judgment against Ball with respect to these lawsuits, claims and proceedings. The company estimates that potential liabilities for all currently known and estimable environmental matters are approximately $35 million in the aggregate and have been included in other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities at June 30, 2018. As previously reported, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) considers the company a PRP with respect to the Lowry Landfill site located east of Denver, Colorado. In 1992, the company was served with a lawsuit filed by the City and County of Denver (Denver) and Waste Management of Colorado, Inc., seeking contributions from the company and approximately 38 other companies. The company filed its answer denying the allegations of the complaint. Subsequently in 1992, the company was served with a third-party complaint filed by S.W. Shattuck Chemical Company, Inc., seeking contribution from the company and other companies for the costs associated with cleaning up the Lowry Landfill. The company denied the allegations of the complaint. Also in 1992, Ball entered into a settlement and indemnification agreement with Chemical Waste Management, Inc., and Waste Management of Colorado, Inc. (collectively Waste Management) and Denver pursuant to which Waste Management and Denver dismissed their lawsuit against the company, and Waste Management agreed to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the company from claims and lawsuits brought by governmental agencies and other parties relating to actions seeking contributions or remedial costs from the company for the clean-up of the site. Waste Management, Inc., has agreed to guarantee the obligations of Waste Management. Waste Management and Denver may seek additional payments from the company if the response costs related to the site exceed $319 million. In 2003 Waste Management, Inc., indicated that the cost of the site might exceed $319 million in 2030, approximately three years before the projected completion of the project. In February 2018, Waste Management reported that total project costs through 2016 were approximately $142 million. The company might also be responsible for payments (based on 1992 dollars) for any additional wastes that may have been disposed of by the company at the site but which are identified after the execution of the settlement agreement. While remediating the site, contaminants were encountered, which could add an additional clean-up cost of approximately $10 million. This additional clean-up cost could, in turn, add approximately $1 million to total site costs for the PRP group. At this time, there are no Lowry Landfill actions in which the company is actively involved. Based on the information available to the company at this time, we do not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, results of operations or financial condition of the company. In November 2012, the USEPA wrote to the company asserting that it is one of at least 50 PRPs with respect to the Lower Duwamish site located in Seattle, Washington, based on the company’s ownership of a glass container plant prior to 1995, and notifying the company of a proposed remediation action plan. A site was selected to begin data review on over 30 industrial companies and government entities and at least two PRP groups have been discussing various allocation proposals. The USEPA issued the site Record of Decision (ROD) in December 2014. Ball submitted its initial responses to the allocator’s questionnaire in March 2015, and after reviewing submissions from the PRPs alleging deficiencies in certain of Ball’s responses, the allocator denied certain of the allegations and directed the company to answer others, to which Ball responded during the fourth quarter of 2016. A group of de minimis PRPs, including Ball, retained a technical consultant to assist with their positions vis-à-vis larger PRPs, and further presentations were made to the site allocator during the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2018. Total site remediation costs of $342 million, to cover remediation of approximately 200 acres of river bottom, are expected according to the proposed remediation action plan, which does not include $100 million that has already been spent, and which will be allocated among the numerous PRPs in due course. Based on the information available to the company at this time, we do not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, results of operations or financial condition of the company. In February 2012, Ball Metal Beverage Container Corp. (BMBCC) filed an action against Crown Packaging Technology, Inc. (Crown) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio seeking a declaratory judgment that the manufacture, sale and use of certain ends by BMBCC and its customers do not infringe certain claims of Crown’s U.S. patents. Crown subsequently filed a counterclaim alleging infringement of certain claims in these patents seeking unspecified monetary damages, fees and declaratory and injunctive relief. The District Court issued a claim construction order at the end of December 2015 and held a scheduling conference on February 10, 2016, to determine the timeline for future steps in the litigation. The case was stayed by mutual agreement of the parties into the third quarter of 2016, during which Crown made preparations for its discovery with respect to certain ends previously produced by Rexam, and such discovery began during the first half of 2017. The parties attempted to mediate the case on August 1, 2017, but no progress was made, and the case continues as scheduled, with discovery expected to continue through the third quarter of 2018. Based on the information available to the company at the present time, the company does not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, results of operations or financial condition of the company. A former Rexam Personal Care site in Annecy, France, was found in 2003 to be contaminated following a leak of chlorinated solvents (TCE) from an underground feedline. The site underwent extensive investigation and an active remediation treatment system was put in place in 2006. The business operating from the site was sold to Albea in 2013 and in turn to French company CATIDOM (operating as Reboul). Reboul vacated the site in September 2014, and the site reverted back to Rexam during the first quarter of 2015. As part of the site closure regulatory requirements, a new regulatory permit (Prefectoral Order) was issued in June 2016, which includes requirements to undertake a cost-benefit analysis and pilot studies of further treatment for the known residual solvent contamination following the shutdown of the current on-site treatment system. A new management plan will be proposed to the French Environmental Authorities (DREAL) during 2018. Based on the information available to the company at this time, we do not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, results of operations or financial condition of the company. The company’s operations in Brazil are involved in various governmental assessments, principally related to claims for taxes on the internal transfer of inventory, gross sales taxes and indirect tax incentives. The company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will materially impact the company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Under customary local regulations, the company’s Brazilian subsidiaries may need to post cash or other collateral if the process to challenge any administrative assessment proceeds to the Brazilian court system; however, the level of any potential cash or collateral required would not significantly impact the liquidity of those subsidiaries or Ball Corporation. During the first quarter of 2017, the Brazilian Supreme Court (the Court) ruled against the Brazilian tax authorities in a leading case related to the computation of certain indirect taxes. The Court ruled that the indirect tax base should not include a value-added tax known as “ICMS.” By removing the ICMS from the tax base, the Court effectively eliminated a “tax on tax.” The Court decision, in principle, affects all applicable judicial proceedings in progress. However, after publication of the decision in October 2017, the Brazilian tax authorities filed an appeal seeking clarification of certain matters, including the amount of ICMS to which taxpayers would be entitled in order to reduce their indirect tax base (i.e., the gross rate or net rate). The appeal also requested a modulation of the decision’s effects, which may limit its impact on taxpayers. Our Brazilian subsidiaries have paid to the Brazilian tax authorities the gross amounts of certain indirect taxes (which included ICMS in their tax base) and have filed lawsuits in 2014 and 2015, in order to challenge the legislation regarding those taxes. Pursuant to these lawsuits, we have requested reimbursement of prior excess tax payments. Taking into consideration that the Court may settle different premises for ICMS exclusion, which will be resolved only after the pending appeal is decided, we believe the outcome of this matter is uncertain at this time. The resolution of the appeal may result in a material reimbursement to the company from the Brazilian government, the amount of which cannot be estimated at this time. |

Indemnifications and Guarantees | |
Indemnifications and Guarantees | 22. Indemnifications and Guarantees General Guarantees The company or its appropriate consolidated direct or indirect subsidiaries, including Rexam and its subsidiaries, have made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which the specified entity may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities, commitments and guarantees include indemnities to the customers of the subsidiaries in connection with the sales of their packaging and aerospace products and services; guarantees to suppliers of subsidiaries of the company guaranteeing the performance of the respective entity under a purchase agreement, construction contract or other commitment; guarantees in respect of certain foreign subsidiaries’ pension plans; indemnities for liabilities associated with the infringement of third-party patents, trademarks or copyrights under various types of agreements; indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility, equipment, furniture and other personal property leases for certain claims arising from such leases; indemnities to governmental agencies in connection with the issuance of a permit or license to the company or a subsidiary; indemnities pursuant to agreements relating to certain joint ventures; indemnities in connection with the sale of businesses or substantially all of the assets and specified liabilities of businesses; and indemnities to directors, officers and employees of the company to the extent permitted under the laws of the State of Indiana and the United States of America. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, is indefinite. In addition, many of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation on the maximum potential future payments the company could be obligated to make. As such, the company is unable to reasonably estimate its potential exposure under these items. Other than the indemnifications provided in connection with the sale of the Divestment Business, the company has not recorded any material liabilities for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The company does, however, accrue for payments under promissory notes and other evidences of incurred indebtedness and for losses for any known contingent liability, including those that may arise from indemnifications, commitments and guarantees, when future payment is both reasonably estimable and probable. Finally, the company carries specific and general liability insurance policies and has obtained indemnities, commitments and guarantees from third-party purchasers, sellers and other contracting parties, which the company believes would, in certain circumstances, provide recourse to any claims arising from these indemnifications, commitments and guarantees. Debt Guarantees The company’s and its subsidiaries’ obligations under the senior notes and senior credit facilities (or, in the case of U.S. domiciled foreign subsidiaries under the senior credit facilities, the obligations of foreign credit parties only) are guaranteed on a full, unconditional and joint and several basis by certain of the company’s domestic subsidiaries and the domestic subsidiary borrowers, and obligations of other guarantors and the subsidiary borrowers under the senior credit facilities are guaranteed by the company, in each case with certain exceptions and subject to grace periods. These guarantees are required in support of the senior notes and senior credit facilities referred to above, are coterminous with the terms of the respective note indentures, senior notes and credit agreement and could be enforced by the holders of the obligations thereunder during the continuation of an event of default under the note indentures, the senior notes or the credit agreement or any other loan document in respect thereof. The maximum potential amounts which could be required to be paid under such guarantees are essentially equal to the then outstanding obligations under the respective senior notes or the credit agreement (or, in the case of U.S. domiciled foreign subsidiaries under the senior credit facilities, the obligations of foreign credit parties only), with certain exceptions. All obligations under the guarantees of the senior credit facilities are secured, with certain exceptions and subject to certain grace periods, by a valid first priority perfected lien or pledge on (i) 100 percent of the capital stock of each of the company's material wholly owned domestic subsidiaries directly owned by the company or any of its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries and (ii) 65 percent of the capital stock of each of the company's material wholly owned first-tier foreign subsidiaries directly owned by the company or any of its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. In addition, the obligations of certain foreign borrowers and foreign pledgors under the loan documents will be secured, with certain exceptions and subject to certain grace periods, by a valid first priority perfected lien or pledge on 100 percent of the capital stock of certain of the company's material wholly owned foreign subsidiaries and material wholly owned U.S. domiciled foreign subsidiaries directly owned by the company or any of its wholly owned material subsidiaries. The company is not in default under the above senior notes or senior credit facilities. The condensed consolidating financial information for the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries is presented in Note 23. Separate financial statements for the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that such financial statements are not required under the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations. |

Subsidiary Guarantee of Debt | 23. Subsidiary Guarantees of Debt The following unaudited condensed consolidating financial information is presented in accordance with SEC Regulations S‑X Rule 3-10, Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered. For purposes of the presentation of unaudited condensed consolidating financial information, the subsidiaries of the company providing the guarantees are referred to as the guarantor subsidiaries, and subsidiaries of the company other than the guarantor subsidiaries are referred to as the non-guarantor subsidiaries. The eliminating adjustments substantively consist of intercompany transactions and the elimination of equity investments and earnings of subsidiaries. Separate financial statements for the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that such financial statements are not required under SEC regulations. The company’s senior notes are guaranteed on a full and unconditional guarantee joint and several basis by certain domestic subsidiaries of the company. Each of the guarantor subsidiaries is 100 percent owned by the company. As described in the supplemental indentures governing the company’s existing senior notes, the senior notes are guaranteed by any of the company’s domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any other indebtedness of the company. The following is unaudited condensed consolidating financial information for the company, segregating the guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries, as of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the addition of three new subsidiary guarantors of the company’s debt obligations in March 2018 and for transfers of ownership of group companies from a non-guarantor subsidiary to the parent. As part of the July 31, 2018, sale of the U.S. steel food and steel aerosol business, certain guarantor subsidiaries transferred to Ball Metalpack ceased to be guarantors of Ball’s debt obligations. This change will be reflected beginning in the third quarter of 2018. The unaudited condensed consolidating financial information presented below is not necessarily indicative of the financial position, results of operations, earnings or cash flows of the company or any of the company’s subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Revenue from Contracts with Customers On January 1, 2018, Ball adopted Accounting Standard Codification 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” and all related amendments (collectively, the new revenue standard) applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. The cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard was recognized as an adjustment to the retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2018. Comparative periods have not been restated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the consolidated January 1, 2018, balance sheet for the adoption of the new revenue standard is as follows: ($ in millions) Balance at December 31, 2017 Adjustments Due to Adoption Balance at January 1, Assets Receivables, net $ 1,634 $ 307 $ 1,941 Inventories, net 1,526 (241) 1,285 Other current assets 150 (4) 146 Liabilities Other current liabilities 540 17 557 Deferred taxes 695 7 702 Shareholders' equity Retained earnings 4,987 37 5,024 Accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) (656) 1 (655) In accordance with the disclosure requirements of the new revenue standard, the impact of adoption on our consolidated statement of earnings and balance sheet was as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 ($ in millions, except per share amounts) As Reported Balances Without Adoption Effect of Change Higher (Lower) As Reported Balances Without Adoption Effect of Change Higher (Lower) Net sales $ 3,101 $ 3,143 $ (42) $ 5,886 $ 5,895 $ (9) Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) (2,484) (2,522) 38 (4,721) (4,728) 7 Earnings before interest and taxes 243 247 (4) 469 471 (2) Tax (provision) benefit (46) (45) (1) (80) (79) (1) Net earnings attributable to Ball Corporation 119 124 (5) 244 247 (3) Basic earnings per share 0.34 0.36 (0.02) 0.70 0.71 (0.01) Diluted earnings per share 0.34 0.35 (0.01) 0.68 0.69 (0.01) June 30, 2018 ($ in millions) As Reported Balances Without Adoption Effect of Change Assets Receivables, net $ 2,013 $ 1,722 $ 291 Inventories, net 1,257 1,489 (232) Other current assets 206 210 (4) Liabilities Other current liabilities 558 545 13 Deferred taxes 666 659 7 Shareholders' equity Retained earnings 5,199 5,165 34 Accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) (767) (768) 1 The following summarizes the significant changes to the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of earnings and consolidated balance sheet as a result of the new revenue standard adopted on January 1, 2018, compared to if the company had continued to recognize sales under the previous revenue recognition guidance: · For the metal beverage packaging segments and, to a lesser extent, in our food and aerosol packaging segment, the new revenue standard accelerated the recognition of certain sales to be over time such that a portion of sales was recognized prior to shipment or delivery of goods. The accelerated recognition of sales also caused the company’s inventory to decrease with an offsetting increase to unbilled receivables to the extent the amounts had not yet been invoiced to the customer and right to payment was unconditional. · For the aerospace segment, sales from the majority of the company’s contracts continue to be recognized over time under the “cost-to-cost” method based on the continuous transfer of control to the customer, which is consistent with how sales were recognized under previous revenue recognition guidance. Therefore, no cumulative adjustment was required to be made upon adoption. · Ball recognized a contract liability when the customer’s payment, or Ball’s unconditional right to that consideration, preceded the company’s performance. Share-Based Compensation In May 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to provide clarity and reduce diversity in practice, cost and complexity when applying stock compensation accounting guidance regarding modifications to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments specify that all changes to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment award will require an entity to apply modification accounting unless all of the following are met: (1) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance was applied prospectively on January 1, 2018, and it did not have an impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Costs In March 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to change the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. Employers are required to report the service cost component in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the associated employees during the period. The other components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. The amendments also permit only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. This guidance was adopted by the company on January 1, 2018, and the capitalization of the service cost component was applied on a prospective basis. Curtailment and settlement losses are reported by the company in business consolidation and other activities. All other non-service components are immaterial and will be presented in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses beginning in 2018. These non-service costs were reported in both cost of sales and SG&A in prior periods; however, due to immateriality in all prior periods presented, no retrospective adjustments were considered necessary. Such costs were $6 million and $12 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, and $21 million for the full year 2017. Sales of Nonfinancial Assets In February 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to clarify the scope and to add guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The guidance requires that all entities account for the derecognition of a business in accordance with guidance for consolidation, including instances in which the business is considered to be in substance real estate. This guidance was applied on January 1, 2018, using a modified retrospective approach and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Definition of a Business In January 2017, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to further clarify the definition of a business in determining whether or not a company has acquired or sold a business. The amendments provide a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities (collectively referred to as a “set”) is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. If the screen is not met, the amendments in this update (1) require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output and (2) remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The amendments also narrow the definition of the term “output” so that the term is consistent with how outputs are described in the new guidance for revenue recognition. The guidance was applied prospectively for Ball on January 1, 2018, and did not have an impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Statement of Cash Flows In November 2016, accounting guidance was issued requiring the statement of cash flows to reconcile the change in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This guidance was applied retrospectively on January 1, 2018, and the impact on the 2017 statement of cash flow was not material. The impact on the 2016 statement of cash flows was material due to approximately $2 billion of restricted cash held by the company at December 2015, in an acquisition escrow account. In July 2016, the funds in the escrow account were used to pay a portion of the cash component of the acquisition price of Rexam. The impact on the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was a $2 million reduction in cash flows from operating activities. In August 2016, accounting guidance was issued addressing the following eight specific cash flow issues: · Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs · Settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing · Contingent consideration payments made after a business combination · Proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims · Proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (including bank-owned life insurance policies) · Distributions received from equity method investees · Beneficial interests in securitization transactions · Separately identifiable cash flows and, for cash flows with aspects of more than one class which are not separately identifiable, classification based on the predominant source for those cash flows This guidance was applied retrospectively on January 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Intra-Entity Transfers In October 2016, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued that require entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, as opposed to when the asset is sold to an unrelated third party. The amendments also eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. This guidance was applied on a modified retrospective basis on January 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Financial Assets and Liabilities In January 2016, accounting guidance was issued on the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities (equity securities and financial liabilities) under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Subsequent guidance was issued in February 2018 to clarify certain aspects of the guidance issued in January 2016. The guidance modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any related changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. An exception applies to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under the guidance and, as such, these investments may be measured at cost. The guidance was applied on January 1, 2018, and did not have a material impact on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements . |
New Accounting Guidance | New Accounting Guidance Share Based Payments In June 2018, amendments to existing accounting guidance were issued to simplify share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The amendments specify that existing guidance for share-based payment transactions with employees applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that existing guidance does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of revenue contracts. The guidance is effective for Ball on January 1, 2019, and is not expected to have a material effect on the company’s consolidated financial statements. Stranded Tax Effects In February 2018, accounting guidance was issued to permit the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings of stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law in December 2017. The guidance is effective for Ball on January 1, 2019, and the company is currently assessing whether or not to early adopt the new guidance. Financial Assets In June 2016, amendments to existing guidance were issued requiring financial assets or a group of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected when finalized. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that will be deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This guidance affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The guidance will be effective on January 1, 2020. The company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. Lease Accounting In February 2016, lease accounting guidance was issued which, for operating leases, will require a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on its balance sheet. The guidance also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. In July 2018, targeted improvements were issued to provide an additional transition method, which is optional, that allows entities to apply the new leases standard upon adoption by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This is in addition to the existing modified retrospective transition method that requires entities to apply the new standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. Additionally, the amendments included a lessor-specific practical expedient, by underlying asset class, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease components, similar to the practical expedient already made available by the standard to lessees. The lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the nonlease component or components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both of the following are true: the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the nonlease component(s) and associated lease component; and the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Codification improvements were also were issued on a variety of topics within the leasing standard, which represent minor corrections or improvements and are not expected to have a significant impact on accounting practices. We have established a cross-functional implementation team, which includes representatives from all of our business segments. We are utilizing a bottoms-up approach to analyze the impact of the new standard by reviewing our current lease population, including completeness, to identify potential accounting, data and other operational changes that might be required under the new guidance. In addition, we are assessing changes to our business processes, systems and controls to support recognition and disclosure under the standard upon adoption. The guidance will be effective for Ball on January 1, 2019, and it is expected that a material amount of lease assets and liabilities will be recorded on its consolidated balance sheet. |
