Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

 

Amcor plc ("Amcor" or the "Company") is a global packaging company that employs approximately 50,000 people across approximately 250 sites in more than 40 countries. The Company develops and produces a broad range of packaging products including flexible packaging and rigid packaging containers.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Consistent with these requirements, this Form 10-Q does not include all the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made which are necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. For further information, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

 

Note 2 - New Accounting Guidance

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance that requires the Company to disclose a description of the Company’s accounting policy for releasing income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income and whether the Company elects to reclassify the stranded income tax effects from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (‘‘The Act’’), along with information about other income tax effects that are reclassified. For all entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities can choose whether to apply the amendments retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the Act is recognized or to apply the amendments in the period of adoption. This guidance was effective for the Company on July 1, 2019. The Company adopted the new guidance effective July 1, 2019 and did not elect the optional reclassification.

 

In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies existing guidance in order to allow companies to more accurately present the economic effects of risk management activities in the financial statements. For public business entities, the amendments in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-12 were effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. This guidance was effective for the Company on July 1, 2019 using the modified respective approach, with the exception of presentation and disclosure guidance which is adopted prospectively. Implementation of the standard did not have a material impact on the the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that required lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to today’s accounting. The guidance also eliminates today’s real estate-specific provisions and changes the guidance on sale-leaseback transactions, initial direct costs and lease executory costs for all entities. Lease classification will determine how to recognize lease-related revenue and expense.  The Company adopted the new lease standard at July 1, 2019 using a simplified transition option that allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption and therefore did not restate prior periods. The Company also elected to adopt the package of practical expedients which allows for existing operating leases to continue to be classified as operating leases under the new guidance without reassessing whether the contracts contain a lease under the new guidance or whether classification of the operating lease would be different under the new standard. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient but did adopt the practical expedient pertaining to land easements which provides the option not to reassess whether land easements not previously accounted for as leases under prior leasing guidance would be leases under the new guidance.

 

Adoption of the new leasing standard resulted in the following impacts to the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements: the establishment of a lease liability of $590.5 million, including current portion, a corresponding right-of-use asset of $569.8 million, and the reclassification of approximately $58.2 million (net of tax) of deferred gains on sale leaseback transactions.

The complete impact of the changes made to the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet due to the adoption of the new leasing guidance were as follows:

 

($ in millions)  June 30, 2019   Adjustments due to Adoption   At July 1, 2019 
Operating lease assets       569.8    569.8 
Other current liabilities   1,044.9    54.3    1,099.2 
Operating lease liabilities       506.8    506.8 
Deferred tax liabilities   1,011.7    18.7    1,030.4 
Other non-current liabilities   241.0    (68.2)   172.8 
Retained earnings   323.7    58.2    381.9 

 

Due to the adoption of the guidance using the simplified transition option, there are no changes to the Company's previously reported results prior to July 1, 2019. Lease expense is not expected to change materially as a result of adoption of the new guidance. The Company changed its disclosures related to leasing beginning in fiscal year 2020. Refer to Note 10, "Leases".

 

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance which requires 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. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance will be effective for the Company on July 1, 2020 and will be adopted using the modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs issued by the FASB. The Company determined that all other ASUs not yet adopted to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements at this time.

Note 3 - Acquisitions

 

Bemis Company, Inc.

 

On June 11, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Bemis Company, Inc ("Bemis"), a global manufacturer of flexible packaging products based in the United States. Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2018, each outstanding share of Bemis common stock that was issued and outstanding upon completion of the transaction was converted into the right to receive 5.1 ordinary shares of the Company traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").

 

The following table summarizes the fair value of consideration exchanged:

     
Bemis shares outstanding at June 11, 2019 (in millions)   91.7 
Share exchange ratio   5.1 
Price per share (based on Amcor’s closing share price on June 11, 2019)  $11.18 
Total equity consideration ($ in millions)  $5,229.6 

 

The acquisition of Bemis positions the Company as a global leader in consumer packaging with a comprehensive global footprint in flexible packaging and greater scale in key regions of North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific and Europe, along with industry-leading research and development capabilities. The Bemis acquisition contributed approximately $970 million in net sales and a $6 million net loss, which includes transaction and integration related costs and purchase accounting, to the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 results.

    

The acquisition of Bemis was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, "Business Combinations," which required allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction. Since the date of acquisition, the Company has revised the allocation of the purchase price of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on an analysis of information that has been made available as of September 30, 2019. The changes in estimates recorded at September 30, 2019 include a $16.9 million increase to inventories, a $119.0 million decrease to finite lived intangible assets, a $48.6 million increase in assets held for sale, a $111.9 million decrease to deferred tax liabilities, a $41.9 million increase to other non-current liabilities and a $6.6 million decrease to goodwill. The allocation of fair value for the assets and liabilities acquired remains preliminary and may continue to be adjusted up to one year after the acquisition. Accordingly, final determination of the fair values may result in further adjustments to the values presented in the table on the next page.

The purchase price allocation is preliminary in nature and subject to adjustments, which could be material. Any necessary adjustments will be finalized within one year from the date of acquisition. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price as of September 30, 2019 has resulted in $3,131.1 million of goodwill for the Flexibles segment, which is not tax deductible. The goodwill on acquisition represents the future economic benefit expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce and non-contractual relationships, as well as expected future synergies. As the Company finalizes the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, it will determine to which reporting units within the Company's segments any changes in goodwill should be recorded.

 

The fair value measurement of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities was based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value measurement hierarchy. Level 3 fair market values were determined using a variety of information, including estimated future cash flows, appraisals and market comparables.

Closing of the Bemis acquisition was conditional upon the receipt of regulatory approvals, approval by both Amcor and Bemis shareholders, and satisfaction of other customary conditions. In order to satisfy certain regulatory approvals, the Company was required to divest three of Bemis' medical packaging facilities located in the United Kingdom and Ireland ("EC Remedy") and three Amcor medical packaging facilities in the United States ("U.S. Remedy"). The U.S. Remedy was completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and the Company received $214.2 million resulting in a gain of $159.1 million. The EC Remedy was completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and the Company received $397.1 million and recorded a loss on the sale of $8.8 million which is the result of the reclassification of accumulated foreign currency translation amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings from discontinued operations upon sale of the EC Remedy.

 

The following unaudited pro forma information has been prepared as if the acquisition of Bemis and the sale of the EC Remedy and U.S. Remedy had occurred as of July 1, 2018. The unaudited pro forma information combines the historical results of Amcor and Bemis.

Income from continuing operations  $126.5 

 

Pro forma adjustments to net sales are as follows:

 

Excludes net sales of the EC Remedy and U.S. Remedy.

 

Pro forma adjustments to income from continuing operations attributable to Amcor plc are as follows:

 

Excludes income from the EC Remedy which has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and the U.S. Remedy which has been reported in U.S. GAAP income from continuing operations;

excludes acquisition related charges;

includes preliminary acquisition accounting adjustments, including amortization and depreciation adjustments as a result of the fair value adjustment to property, plant and equipment; and

excludes the impact on net income attributable to purchase accounting related inventory effects and sales backlog amortization given these charges do not have a continuing impact on the consolidated results.

 

The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the actual results that would have occurred had the acquisition been in effect for the periods presented, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results. For example, the pro forma results do not include the expected synergies from the transactions, nor the related costs to achieve.

On February 11, 2019, the Company received approval from the European Commission ("EC") for the acquisition of Bemis. A condition of the approval was an agreement to divest three Bemis medical packaging facilities located in the United Kingdom and Ireland ("EC Remedy"). Upon completion of the Bemis acquisition on June 11, 2019, the Company determined that the EC Remedy met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation, in accordance with ASC 205-20, "Discontinued Operations." The sale of the EC Remedy closed on August 8, 2019. The Company recorded a loss on the sale of $8.8 million, which is the result of the reclassification of accumulated foreign currency translation amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings from discontinued operations upon sale of the EC Remedy.

 

The following table summarizes the results of the EC Remedy, classified as discontinued operations, from July 1, 2019 until the sale of the EC Remedy on August 8, 2019:

Note 5 - Restructuring Plans

 

2019 Bemis Integration Plan

 

In connection with the acquisition of Bemis, the Company initiated restructuring activities in the fourth quarter of 2019 aimed at integrating and optimizing the combined organization. As previously announced, the Company continues to target realizing approximately $180 million of pre-tax synergies driven by procurement, supply chain, and general and administrative savings by the end of fiscal year 2022.

 

The Company's total Plan pre-tax restructuring costs are expected to be approximately $200 million. The Company estimates that approximately $150 million of the $200 million total costs will result in cash expenditures. Cash payments for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 were $18.0 million, which includes $6.0 million of restructuring related expenditures. Cash payments of approximately $80 million are expected for the balance of the fiscal year. The 2019 Bemis Integration Plan relates to the Flexibles segment and Corporate and is expected to be completed by the end of fiscal year 2022.

 

2018 Rigid Packaging Restructuring Plan

 

On August 21, 2018, the Company announced a restructuring plan in Amcor Rigid Packaging ("2018 Rigid Packaging Restructuring Plan") aimed at reducing structural costs and optimizing the footprint. The Plan includes the closures of manufacturing facilities and headcount reductions to achieve manufacturing footprint optimization and productivity improvements as well as overhead cost reductions.

 

The Company's total Plan pre-tax restructuring costs are expected to be approximately $95 million with the main component being the cost to exit manufacturing facilities and employee related costs. The Company estimates that approximately $65 million of the $95 million total costs will result in cash expenditures. Cash payments for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 were $3.0 million, with $15 million to $20 million expected during the remainder of the fiscal year. The Plan is expected to be materially completed during this fiscal year.

 

Other Restructuring Plans

 

The Company entered into other individually immaterial restructuring plans ("Other Restructuring Plans"). The Company's restructuring charge related to these Plans was approximately $0.3 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements

 

The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities listed below reflect the amounts that would be received to sell the assets or paid to transfer the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).

 

The Company’s non-derivative financial instruments primarily include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, short-term debt and long-term debt. At September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the carrying value of these financial instruments, excluding long-term debt, approximates fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.

 

The fair value of long-term debt with variable interest rates approximates its carrying value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt with fixed interest rates is based on market prices, if available, or expected future cash flows discounted at the current interest rate for financial liabilities with similar risk profiles. The carrying values and estimated fair values of long-term debt with fixed interest rates (excluding capital leases) were as follows:

 

   September 30, 2019   June 30, 2019 
       Fair Value       Fair Value 
($ in millions)  Carrying Value   (Level 2)   Carrying Value   (Level 2) 
Total long-term debt with fixed interest rates (excluding commercial paper and capital leases)  $2,536.2   $2,650.0   $2,955.6   $3,041.3 

 

Assets and Liabilities Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

Additionally, the Company measures and records certain assets and liabilities, including derivative instruments and contingent purchase consideration liabilities, at fair value. The following table summarizes the fair value of these instruments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level, within the fair value hierarchy:

 

   September 30, 2019

Commodity contracts  $   $   $   $ 
Forward exchange contracts       5.5        5.5

Interest rate swaps                
Total liabilities measured at fair value  $   $13.9    $13.6   $27.5 

 

The fair value of the commodity contracts was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the terms of the contracts and observed market forward prices discounted at a currency-specific rate. Forward exchange contract fair values were determined based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets using inputs such as currency rates and forward points. The fair value of the interest rate swaps was determined using a discounted cash flow method based on market-based swap yield curves, taking into account current interest rates.

 

The fair value of the contingent purchase consideration liabilities was determined for each arrangement individually. The fair value was determined using the income approach with significant inputs that are not observable in the market. Key assumptions include the discount rates consistent with the level of risk of achievement and probability adjusted financial projections. The expected outcomes are recorded at net present value, which requires adjustment over the life for changes in risks and probabilities.

 

The fair value of contingent purchase consideration liabilities is included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Note 9 - Derivative Instruments

 

Amcor periodically uses derivatives and other financial instruments to hedge exposures to interest rate, commodity and currency risks. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. For hedges that meet the hedge accounting criteria, the Company, at inception, formally designates and documents the instrument as a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge of a specific underlying exposure. On an ongoing basis, the Company assesses and documents that its hedges have been and are expected to continue to be highly effective.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

The Company’s policy is to manage exposure to interest rate risk by maintaining a mixture of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, monitoring global interest rates and, where appropriate, hedging floating interest rate exposure or debt at fixed interest rates through the use of interest rate swaps. For interest rate swaps that are accounted for as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of both the hedging instruments and the underlying debt obligations are immediately recognized in interest expense. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps that have not been designated as hedging instruments are reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income under other non-operating income (loss), net.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap with a notional amount of $100.0 million. The Company did not designate it as a hedging instrument and thus changes in fair value were immediately recognized in earnings.

 

As of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the total notional amount of the Company’s receive-fixed/pay-variable interest rate swaps accounted for as fair value hedges was $828.3 million and $841.1 million, respectively.

 

16

 

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

The Company manufactures and sells its products and finances operations in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The purpose of the Company’s foreign currency hedging program is to manage the volatility associated with the changes in exchange rates.

 

To manage this exchange rate risk, the Company utilizes forward contracts. Contracts that qualify for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges of certain forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The effective portion of the changes in fair value of these instruments is reported in AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same financial statement line item and in the same period or periods during which the related hedged transactions affect earnings. The ineffective portion is immediately recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income. Changes in the fair value of forward contracts that have not been designated as hedging instruments are reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income.

 

As of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the notional amount of the outstanding forward contracts was $1.3 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively.

 

The Company manages its currency exposure related to the net assets of its foreign operations primarily through borrowings denominated in the relevant currency. Foreign currency gains and losses from the remeasurement of external borrowings designated as net investment hedges of a foreign operation are recognized in AOCI, to the extent that the hedge is effective. The ineffective portion is immediately recognized in other non-operating income (loss), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income. When a hedged net investment is disposed of, a percentage of the cumulative amount recognized in AOCI in relation to the hedged net investment is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income as part of the profit or loss on disposal.

 

As of September 30, 2019, the carrying value of commercial paper issued which is designated as a net investment hedge was $67.0 million.

 

Commodity Risk

 

Certain raw materials used in the Company's production processes are subject to price volatility caused by weather, supply conditions, political and economic variables and other unpredictable factors. To manage the volatility in earnings due to price fluctuations, the Company utilizes fixed price swaps. Information about commodity price exposure is derived from supply forecasts submitted by customers and these exposures are hedged by a central treasury unit. Changes in the fair value of commodity hedges are recognized in AOCI. The cumulative amount of the hedge is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income when the forecast transaction is realized.

 

At September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the Company had the following outstanding commodity contracts that were entered into to hedge forecasted purchases:

 

    September 30, 2019    June 30, 2019 
Commodity   Volume    Volume 
Aluminum   34,571 tons    29,342 tons

In addition to the fair value associated with derivative instruments noted in the table above, the Company had a carrying value of $67.0 million associated with non-derivative instruments designated as foreign currency net investment hedges as of both September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019. The designated foreign currency-denominated debt is included in long-term debt in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Certain derivative financial instruments are subject to master netting arrangements and are eligible for offset. The Company has made an accounting policy election not to offset the fair values of these instruments within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 10 - Leases

 

The Company has operating leases for certain manufacturing sites, office space, warehouses, land, vehicles and equipment. Most leases include the option to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to five years or more. Right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term which includes renewal periods the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Short term leases with a term of twelve months or less, including reasonably certain holding periods, are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company's leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. At September 30, 2019, the Company does not have material lease commitments that have not commenced.

 

The components of lease expense were as follows:

Note 12 - Income Taxes

 

The Company computes its provision for income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year to date income before income taxes and equity in income of affiliated companies and adjusts for discrete tax items recorded in the period.

 

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020, adjusted for specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

 

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is $21.8 million compared to $21.7 million in the same period in 2018. The effective tax rate increased by 5.1%, from 17.8% to 22.9%. The modest increase in income tax provision and the increase in the effective tax rate was primarily related to non-deductible restructuring and transaction costs and the increase of operating income earned in higher tax jurisdictions as a result of the Bemis acquisition.

Note 14 - Segments

 

The Company's business is organized and presented in the two reportable segments outlined below:

 

Flexibles: Consists of operations that manufacture flexible and film packaging in the food and beverage, medical and pharmaceutical, fresh produce, snack food, personal care, and other industries.

 

Rigid Packaging: Consists of operations that manufacture rigid plastic containers for a broad range of predominantly beverage and food products, including carbonated soft drinks, water, juices, sports drinks, milk-based beverages, spirits and beer, sauces, dressings, spreads and personal care items and plastic caps for a wide variety of applications.

 

Other consists of the Company's equity method investments, including AMVIG, undistributed corporate expenses, intercompany eliminations and other business activities.

 

Operating segments are organized along the Company's product lines and geographical areas. In conjunction with the acquisition of Bemis, the Company reassessed its segment reporting structure in the first fiscal quarter of 2020 and elected to disaggregate the Flexibles Americas operating segment into Flexibles North America and Flexibles Latin America. The five Flexibles operating segments (Flexibles Europe, Middle East and Africa; Flexibles North America, Flexibles Latin America; Flexibles Asia Pacific and Specialty Cartons) have been aggregated in the Flexibles reporting segment as they exhibit similarity in long-term forecasted economic characteristics, similarity in the products they offer, their production technologies, the customers they serve, the nature of their service delivery models, and their regulatory environments.

 

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, in connection with the acquisition of Bemis, the Company changed its measure of segment performance from adjusted operating income to adjusted earnings before interest and tax ("EBIT") from continuing operations. The Company's chief operating decision maker, the Global Management Team ("GMT"), evaluates performance and allocates resources based on adjusted EBIT from continuing operations. The Company defines adjusted EBIT as operating income adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance and to include equity in income (loss) of affiliated companies. The GMT consists of the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer and his direct reports and provides strategic direction and management oversight of the day to day activities of the Company.

 

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those in the consolidated financial statements. The Company also has investments in operations in AMVIG that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and, accordingly, those results are not included in segment net sales.

Note 15 - Earnings Per Share Computations

 

The Company applies the two-class method when computing its earnings per share ("EPS"), which requires that net income per share for each class of share be calculated assuming all of the Company's net income is distributed as dividends to each class of share based on their contractual rights.

 

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding after excluding the ordinary shares to be repurchased using forward contracts. Diluted EPS includes the effects of share options, restricted shares, performance rights, performance shares and share rights, if dilutive.

Income from continuing operations  $0.05   $0.08 
Income from discontinued operations   (0.01)     
Diluted earnings per ordinary share  $0.04   $0.08 

 

Certain outstanding share options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive. The excluded share options represented an aggregate of 17.3 million and 7.6 million shares in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note 16 - Contingencies and Legal Proceedings

 

Contingencies

 

The Company's operations in Brazil are involved in various governmental assessments, principally related to claims for excise and income taxes. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will materially impact the Company's consolidated 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 a challenge to any administrative assessment proceeds to the Brazilian court system; however, the level of cash or collateral already pledged or potentially required to be pledged would not significantly impact the liquidity of Amcor. At September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the Company has recorded an accrual of $15.3 million and $16.4 million, respectively, included in other non-current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and has estimated a reasonably possible loss exposure in excess of the accrual of $25.5 million and $23.7 million, respectively. The litigation process is subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of individual matters cannot be accurately predicted. The Company's assessments are based on its knowledge and experience, but the ultimate outcome of any of these matters may differ from the Company's estimates.

 

As of September 30, 2019, Amcor provided letters of credit of $42.2 million and deposited cash of $13.1 million with the courts to continue to defend the cases.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

On April 18, 2019, prior to the closure of the Amcor and Bemis transaction, litigation funding firm, Burford Capital, notified Bemis on behalf of two shareholder funds (BCIM Strategic Value Master Fund LP and BCIM SV SMA I LLC) that the funds would not accept the fixed exchange ratio for Amcor shares and instead intended to file a case asking a Missouri state court to appraise the value of their Bemis shares and compensate them accordingly. On June 24, 2019, the Burford funds sent a formal written demand for payment of the fair value of the funds’ shares. On September 6, the Burford funds filed a Petition for Appraisal of Stock in the Missouri court. As the Company is in the very early stages of this proceeding, it is difficult to predict the potential outcome.

 

Two lawsuits brought by purported holders of Bemis stock against Bemis and Bemis directors and officers are pending in federal court in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, in which plaintiffs are seeking damages for alleged violations of the Exchange Act of 1934 and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. Plaintiffs allege a failure to disclose adequately information in the proxy statement issued in connection with the Amcor-Bemis merger. The cases are: Dixon, et al. v. Bemis Company, Inc. et al. and Stein v. Bemis Company, Inc. et al., which were instituted on April 15, 2019 and April 17, 2019, respectively.

 

In addition, a purported holder of Bemis stock filed a putative derivative suit in the Cole County Circuit Court, Nineteenth Judicial District of Missouri, against Bemis directors and Amcor, alleging that the directors breached fiduciary duties in connection with the Amcor-Bemis merger and that Amcor aided and abetted breaches of fiduciary duty. The case is Scarantino, et al. v. Amcor Limited, et al., which was instituted on April 19, 2019.

 

Amcor intends to defend the claims made in the pending actions. It is too early for Amcor to provide any reliable assessment of the likely quantum of any damages that may become payable if its defense is unsuccessful in whole or in part. Although it is not possible at present to establish a reliable assessment of damages, there can be no assurance that any damages that may be awarded will not be material to the results of operations or financial condition of Amcor.

 

Note 17 - Subsequent Events

 

On November 7, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share to be paid on December 17, 2019 to shareholders of record as of November 28, 2019.
