1. Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Owens Corning,” “Company,” “we” and “our” in these notes refer to Owens Corning and its subsidiaries.
Description of Business
Owens Corning, a Delaware corporation, is a building products leader committed to building a sustainable future through material innovation. Our products provide durable, sustainable and energy-efficient solutions that leverage our unique capabilities and market-leading positions to help our customers win and grow. The Company operates within three segments: Roofing, Insulation, and Doors. Through these lines of business, Owens Corning manufactures and sells products worldwide. We are a market leader in many of our major product categories.
Acquisition of Masonite International Corporation
On May 15, 2024, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Masonite International Corporation (“Masonite”) at a purchase price of $133.00 per share (the "Arrangement"). Masonite was a leading global designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of interior and exterior doors and door systems for residential new construction and residential repair and remodeling. The addition of Masonite's market-leading doors business creates a new growth platform for the Company, strengthening the Company's position in building and construction and expanding its offering of branded residential building products.
Masonite's operating results and purchase price allocation have been included in the Company's Doors reportable segment from May 15, 2024, the effective date of the Arrangement, within the Consolidated Financial Statements. Please refer to Note 8 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Dividends
On February 5, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.79 per common share payable on April 9, 2026 to shareholders of record as of March 9, 2026.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
On February 14, 2025, the Company announced the sale of its glass reinforcements ("GR") business. The transaction represented a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results and therefore, beginning with the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025, and including this annual report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2025, the glass reinforcements financial results are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Unless otherwise specified, these notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements reflect continuing operations. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows present cash flows from both continuing and discontinued operations. Please refer to Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. Due to the reorganization of our reportable segments as of January 1, 2025, prior period information has been recast to align with our new reportable segments. Please refer to Note 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company include the accounts of majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2024 and 2023 Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the classifications used in 2025.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue as the amount of consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to customers. We do not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component, as the time period between control transfer of goods and services and expected payment is one year or less. At the time of sale, we estimate provisions for different forms of variable consideration (discounts, rebates, returns and other refund liabilities) based on historical experience, current conditions and contractual obligations, as applicable. The estimated transaction price is typically not subject to significant reversals. We adjust these estimates when the most likely amount of consideration we expect to receive changes, although these changes are typically minor. Sales, value-added and other similar taxes that we collect are excluded from revenue.
Many of our customer volume commitments are short-term and our performance obligations are generally limited to single purchase orders. Substantially all of our revenue is recognized at a point-in-time when control of goods transfers to the customer. Control transfer typically occurs when goods are shipped from our facilities or at other predetermined control transfer points (for instance, destination terms or consignment arrangements).
We typically do not satisfy performance obligations without obtaining an unconditional right to payment from customers and, therefore, do not carry contract asset balances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liability balances are recorded separately from receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in either Total current liabilities or Other liabilities, depending on the timing of performance obligation satisfaction.
We sell separately-priced warranties that extend certain product and workmanship coverages beyond our standard product warranty, which is described in Note 12. The up-front consideration on extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized as revenue over time, based on the respective coverage period, ranging from 16 to 20 years. On an annual basis, we expect to recognize approximately $10 million of revenue associated with these extended warranty contracts. Additionally, in certain limited cases, we receive consideration before goods or services are transferred to the customer. These customer down payments and deposits are deferred, and typically recognized as revenue in the following quarters when we satisfy the related performance obligations.
As of December 31, 2025, our contract liability balances (for extended warranties, down payments and deposits, collectively) totaled $133 million. As of December 31, 2024, our contract liability balances totaled $118 million, of which $25 million was recognized as revenue throughout 2025. As of December 31, 2023, our contract liability balances (for extended warranties, down payments and deposits, collectively) totaled $101 million, of which $21 million was recognized as revenue throughout 2024. As of December 31, 2022, our contract liability balances (for extended warranties, down payments and deposits, collectively) totaled $89 million, of which $18 million was recognized as revenue throughout 2023.
As a practical expedient, we recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract, if any, as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset would have been one year or less. We do not have any costs to obtain or fulfill a contract that are capitalized under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes material, labor, energy and manufacturing overhead costs, including depreciation and amortization expense associated with the manufacture and distribution of the Company’s products. Provisions for warranties are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded and are based on historical experience, current conditions and contractual obligations, as applicable. Distribution costs include inbound freight costs; purchasing and receiving costs; inspection costs; warehousing costs; shipping and handling costs, which include costs incurred relating to preparing, packaging, and shipping products to customers; and other costs of the Company’s distribution network. We account for shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the related good transfers as fulfillment activities instead of performance obligations. All shipping and handling costs billed to the customer are included as net sales in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Earnings.
Marketing and Administrative Expenses
Marketing and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Earnings are primarily related to employee salary and benefits, outside service fees, contributions to retirement plans, healthcare plans and other administrative expenses. Marketing and advertising expenses are included in Marketing and administrative expenses. These costs include advertising and marketing communications, which are expensed the first time the advertisement takes place. Marketing and advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $144 million, $132 million and $119 million, respectively.
Science and Technology Expenses
The Company incurs certain expenses related to science and technology, which primarily relate to the Company's research and development activities. These expenses include salaries, building and equipment costs, utilities, administrative expenses, materials and supplies associated with the improvement and development of the Company’s products and manufacturing processes. These costs are expensed as incurred, in line with the requirements of ASC 730.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the dilutive effect of common equivalent shares and increased shares that would result from the conversion of equity securities. The effects of anti-dilution are not presented.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company defines cash and cash equivalents as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Restricted cash primarily represents amounts received from a counterparty related to its performance assurance on an executory contract, and is included in Other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts are contractually required to be set aside, and the counterparty can exchange the cash for another form of performance assurance at its discretion. Please refer to Note 22 for additional disclosures related to Supplemental Cash Flow Information.
Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Consistent with the requirements of Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 236),” the allowance for credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the expected losses of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.
Our customers consist mainly ofdistributors, home centers, contractors andretailers. Two of our largest customers accounted for approximately 25% and 11%, respectively, of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025.
Inventory Valuation
Inventory costs include material, labor, and manufacturing overhead costs, including depreciation and amortization expense associated with the manufacture and distribution of the Company’s products. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value and expense estimates are made for excess and obsolete inventories. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.
Investments in Affiliates
The Company accounts for investments in affiliates of 20% to 50% ownership when the Company does not have a controlling financial interest using the equity method under which the Company’s share of earnings and losses of the affiliate are reflected in earnings, and dividends are credited against the investment in affiliate when declared. Investments in affiliates are recorded in Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the total value of investments was $62 million and $86 million, respectively.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill assets are not amortized but are tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company has the option to use a qualitative approach to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative test. In the current year, as part of the annual assessment, the Company used a qualitative approach to determine whether the fair value of a reporting unit was less than its carrying amount.
Events and circumstances we consider in performing the qualitative assessment include macro-economic conditions, market and industry conditions, internal cost factors, and the operational stability and the overall financial performance of the reporting units. When it is determined necessary for the Company to perform the quantitative testing process for goodwill, the Company estimates fair values using an equally weighted combination of the discounted cash flow analysis, or income approach, as well as the Guideline Public Company Method, or a market approach, based on market multiples of comparable companies. The most significant assumptions used in the fair value analysis are base year revenue, revenue growth rate, long-term growth rate, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) margins, discount rate, and market multiples under the market approach. The cash flow forecasts of the reporting units are based upon management’s long-term view of our markets and are the forecasts that are used by senior management and the Board of Directors to evaluate operating performance. The discount rate utilized is management’s estimate of what the market’s weighted average cost of capital is for a company with a similar debt rating and stock volatility, as measured by beta. The terminal business value is determined by applying the long-term growth rate to the latest year for which a forecast exists. As part of our goodwill quantitative testing process, we would evaluate whether there are reasonably likely changes to management’s estimates that would have a material impact on the results of the goodwill impairment testing.
Other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are tested for impairment on at least an annual basis or when determined to have a finite useful life. Substantially all of the indefinite-lived intangible assets are in trademarks and trade names. The Company uses the royalty relief approach to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of these assets is less than its carrying amount. This review is performed annually, or when circumstances arise which indicate there may be impairment. When applying the royalty relief approach, the Company performs a discounted cash flow analysis based on the value derived from owning these trademarks and trade names and being relieved from paying royalty to third parties. Significant assumptions used include the discrete period revenue growth rates, long-term revenue growth rate, royalty rates, discount rates and terminal value.
The inputs for the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible tests are considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy as they are the Company’s own data, and are unobservable in the marketplace. Indefinite-lived intangible assets purchased through acquisitions are generally tested qualitatively for impairment in the first year following the acquisition before transitioning to the methodology described herein in subsequent years.
Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The Company reviews our intangibles with finite useful lives at the asset group level on a quarterly basis or as events occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of amortizable intangible assets below its carrying amount. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset group, then an impairment loss would be recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value.
Please refer to Note 6 for additional disclosures related to Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
Emissions Rights
The Company is allotted carbon emission credit allowances (“emissions rights”) from several of the governments of the countries and territories in which it operates. When the Company emits more than the allotted amounts, additional emissions rights must be purchased. These emissions rights are recorded at market value as of the date of issuance and are classified as Intangible assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The range of useful lives for the major components of the Company’s property, plant and equipment is as follows:
| Useful Life (Years) | |
| Buildings and leasehold improvements | 15 – 40 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | |
| Furnaces | 4 – 15 years |
| Information systems | 5 – 10 years |
| Equipment | 5 – 20 years |
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed, their carrying values and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Earnings. Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Precious metals used in our production tooling are included in property, plant and equipment and are depleted as they are consumed during the production process.
Leases
The Company leases certain equipment and facilities under both operating and finance leases expiring on various dates through 2050. The nature of these leases generally fall into the following five categories: real estate, material handling equipment, fleet vehicles, office equipment and energy equipment.
For leases with initial terms greater than 12 months, we consider these our right-of-use assets and record the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. For leases with initial terms equal to or less than 12 months, we do not consider them as right-of-use assets and instead consider them short-term lease costs that are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Our leases may include escalation clauses, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into our determination of lease payments when reasonably certain. These options to extend or terminate a lease are at our discretion. We have elected to take the practical expedient and not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts. We estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees.
Asset Impairments
The Company evaluates tangible and intangible long-lived assets for impairment when triggering events have occurred. This requires significant assumptions including projected cash flows, projected income tax rate and terminal business value. These inputs are considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy as they are the Company’s own data and are unobservable in the marketplace. Changes in management intentions, market conditions or operating performance could indicate that impairment charges might be necessary that could be material to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in any given period.
Supplier Finance Programs
We review supplier terms and conditions on an ongoing basis, and have negotiated payment terms extensions in recent years in connection with our efforts to reduce working capital and improve cash flow. Separate from those terms extension actions, certain of our subsidiaries have entered into paying agency agreements with third-party administrators. These voluntary supply chain finance programs (collectively, the “Programs”) generally give participating suppliers the ability to sell, or otherwise pledge as collateral, their receivables from the Company to the participating financial institutions, at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and financial institutions. The Company is not a party to the arrangements between the suppliers and the financial institutions. The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by the suppliers’ decisions to sell, or otherwise pledge as collateral, amounts under these arrangements. The Company's payment terms to the financial institutions, including the timing and amount of payments, are based on the original supplier invoices. One of our Programs includes a parent guarantee to the participating financial institution for a certain U.S. subsidiary that, at the time of the respective program’s inception in 2015, was a guarantor subsidiary of the Company’s credit agreement.
The obligations are presented as Accounts payable within Total current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and all activity related to the obligations is presented within operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow.
The Company's outstanding obligations under the Programs for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:
| Twelve Months Ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| (In millions) | 2025 | 2024 |
| Confirmed obligations outstanding at the beginning of the year | $234 | $211 |
| Invoices confirmed during the year | 571 | 566 |
| Confirmed invoices paid during the year | (609) | (543) |
| Confirmed obligations outstanding at the end of the year | $196 | $234 |
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes current tax liabilities and assets for the estimated taxes payable or refundable on the tax returns for the current year. Deferred tax balances reflect the impact of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Amounts are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. In addition, realization of certain deferred tax assets is dependent upon our ability to generate future taxable income. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that it believes is more likely than not to be realized. In addition, the Company estimates tax reserves to cover potential taxing authority claims for income taxes and interest attributable to audits of open tax years. Please refer to Note 21 for additional disclosures related to Income Taxes.
Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Government Authorities and Taxes Paid to Vendors
Taxes are assessed by various governmental authorities at different rates on many different types of transactions. The Company charges sales tax or value-added tax (“VAT”) on sales to customers where applicable, as well as captures and claims back all available VAT that has been paid on purchases. VAT is recorded in separate payable or receivable accounts and does not affect Net Sales or Cost of Sales line items on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings. VAT receivable is recorded as a percentage of qualifying purchases at the time the vendor invoice is processed. VAT payable is recorded as a percentage of qualifying sales at the time an Owens Corning sale to a customer subject to VAT occurs. Amounts are paid to the taxing authority according to the method and collection prescribed by local regulations. Where applicable, VAT payable is netted against VAT receivable. The Company also pays sales tax to vendors who include a tax, required by government regulations, to the purchase price charged to the Company.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
Accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits involves estimating the cost of benefits to be provided well into the future and attributing that cost over the time period each employee works. To accomplish this, extensive use is made of assumptions about investment returns, discount rates, inflation, mortality, turnover and medical costs. Please refer to Notes 15 and 16 for additional disclosures related to pension plans and other postretirement benefits, respectively.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet. Please refer to Note 5 for further disclosure on derivatives.
The Company performs an analysis for effectiveness of its derivatives designated as hedging instruments at the end of each quarter based on the terms of the contracts and the underlying items being hedged. The change in the fair value of cash flow hedges is deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive deficit (“AOCI”) and is subsequently recognized in Cost of sales (for commodity hedges) on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Earnings in order to mirror the location of the hedged items impacting earnings. Cash settlements for commodity hedges qualifying as cash flow hedges are included in Operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to manage existing exposures to foreign exchange rate risks related to assets and liabilities recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses resulting from the changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded in Other expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Earnings, and are substantially offset by net revaluation impacts on foreign currency denominated balance sheet exposures (which are also recorded in Other expense, net). Cash settlements for non-designated derivatives are included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the category that is consistent with the nature of the derivative instrument, which is generally the same category as the underlying item being hedged.
Fair Value Measurements
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and short-term debt approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of the instruments.
Please refer to Notes 5, 6, 8, 14, 15 and 16 for fair value disclosures of derivative financial instruments, goodwill, intangible assets, acquisitions, long-term debt, pension plans and postemployment and postretirement benefits other than pensions.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries is generally the applicable local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into United States Dollars at the period-end rate of exchange, and their Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Statements of Cash Flows are converted at the monthly average rate. The resulting translation adjustment is included in AOCI in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recorded in Other expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Earnings as incurred. As discussed in the Derivative Financial Instruments section above, the Company uses non-designated foreign currency derivative financial instruments to mitigate this risk. The Company recorded foreign currency transactional losses, net of associated derivative activity, of $3 million, less than $1 million and $2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Please refer to Note 5 for additional disclosures related to non-designated derivatives.
Related Party Transactions
In the first quarter of 2021, a related party relationship was established as a result of a member of the Company’s Board of Directors being named an executive officer of one of the Company’s preexisting suppliers. The related party transactions with this supplier consist of the purchase of raw materials. Purchases from the related party supplier were $79 million, $100 million and $92 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, amounts due to the related party supplier were $2 million, $3 million and $5 million, respectively.
Failed Sale-Leaseback - Fort Smith, Arkansas Municipal Tax Incentive
In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company signed a municipal tax incentive agreement, as part of which, the Company sold its Fort Smith, Arkansas plant and equipment (together, the “facility”) to the municipality of Fort Smith for cash of $165 million. The Company then, on the same day, entered into an agreement to lease the facility from the municipality of Fort Smith overten years for a total lease liability of $165 million and immediately purchasedten-year municipal bonds at 6.7% interest issued by the municipality of Fort Smith with cash of $165 million. In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the cash proceeds from the sale of the facility and the cash used for the bond purchase are presented on a net basis within the Net cash flows used by investing activities.
The monthly lease payments under the financing lease obligation and the semi-annual bond coupon payments associated with the bond investment are legally offset and, as such, the offset lease obligation and bond investment amounts are presented on a net basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. There will be no cash payments made by either party over theten-year period. At the termination of the lease agreement, a non-cash exchange will occur where the municipality will call the bond and return title of the facility to the Company.
The Company had the opportunity to purchase additional bonds representing the incremental capital expenditures up to $240 million. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company sold additional equipment purchased after the initial bonds for cash of $15 million. On December 27, 2024, the Company purchased additionalten-year municipal bonds at 6.7% interest issued by the municipality of Fort Smith with cash of $15 million based on eligible spend incurred in 2024. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company sold additional equipment purchased after the initial bonds for cash of $32 million. On December 11, 2025, the Company purchased additionalten-year municipal bonds at 6.7% interest issued by the municipality of Fort Smith with cash of $32 million based on eligible spend incurred in 2025. In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the cash proceeds from the sale of the equipment and the cash used for the bond purchase are presented on a net basis within the Net cash flows used by investing activities.
The transactions did not qualify for sale-leaseback treatment under ASC 842 and, therefore, the plant’s net book value, as well as the net book value of the equipment sold, remains in Property, plant and equipment, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Depreciation expense on the assets sold remains within Cost of Sales on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The Company does not expect additional bond purchases related to this project.
Failed Sale-Leaseback - Russellville, Arkansas Municipal Tax Incentive
In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company signed a municipal tax incentive agreement, as part of which, the Company sold its Russellville, Arkansas plant and equipment (together, the “facility”) to the municipality of Pope County for cash of $94 million. The Company then, on the same day, entered into an agreement to lease the facility from the municipality of Pope County over 20 years for a total lease liability of $94 million and immediately purchased 20-year municipal bonds at 5.0% interest issued by the municipality of Pope County with cash of $94 million. In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the cash proceeds from the sale of the facility and the cash used for the bond purchase are presented on a net basis within the Net cash flows used by investing activities.
The monthly lease payments under the financing lease obligation and the semi-annual bond coupon payments associated with the bond investment are legally offset and, as such, the offset lease obligation and bond investment amounts are presented on a net basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. There will be no cash payments made by either party over the 20-year period. At the termination of the lease agreement, a non-cash exchange will occur where the municipality will call the bond and return title of the facility to the Company. The Company will have the opportunity to purchase additional bonds representing the incremental capital expenditures up to $100 million.
The transactions did not qualify for sale-leaseback treatment under ASC 842 and, therefore, the plant’s net book value, as well as the net book value of the equipment sold, remains in Property, plant and equipment, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Depreciation expense on the assets sold remains within Cost of Sales on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
