UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On December 19, 2017, Crown Holdings, Inc. ("Crown") announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Signode Industrial Group Holdings (Bermuda) Ltd. ("Signode"), a leading global provider of transit packaging systems and solutions. On April 3, 2018, Crown completed the transaction, valued at $3.9 billion including debt and certain other liabilities assumed, subject to customary closing adjustments (the "Acquisition"). The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information (the "pro formas") is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Crown and the historical consolidated financial statements of Signode, and has been prepared to reflect the Acquisition and the financing structure established to fund the Acquisition. The pro formas are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Crown that actually would have resulted had the Acquisition occurred at the dates indicated, nor project the results of operations or financial position of Crown for any future date or period.
The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations (the "pro forma statement of operations") for the year ended December 31, 2017 gives effect to the Acquisition as if it was completed on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet (the "pro forma balance sheet") as of December 31, 2017 is based on the assumption that the Acquisition was completed on that day. The unaudited pro forma adjustments reflecting the Acquisition have been prepared to give pro forma effect to events that are (i) directly attributable to the Acquisition, (ii) factually supportable, and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on Crown following consummation of the Acquisition. The pro formas do not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits from the Acquisition, including potential synergies that may be derived in future periods.
The pro formas should be read in conjunction with:
• | Crown's audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as well as "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", in each case contained in Crown's Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, and |
• | Signode's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, together with the related notes included in exhibit 99.2 of Crown's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 15, 2018. |
The pro formas include reclassifications to conform Signode's historical accounting presentation to Crown's accounting presentation.
The Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Under this method, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The actual fair values may vary from these preliminary estimates.
The pro forma adjustments are based upon the best available information and include certain assumptions that Crown believes to be reasonable. Further, these adjustments could materially change as the allocation of the purchase price for Signode has not been finalized. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the final allocation of the purchase price will not differ from the preliminary allocation reflected in the pro formas.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements
(in millions)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The pro formas are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Crown and the historical consolidated financial statements of Signode, and have been prepared to reflect the Acquisition and the financing structure. The pro formas are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Crown that actually would have resulted had the Acquisition occurred at the dates indicated, or project the results of operations or financial position of Crown for any future dates or periods. The pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 assume the Acquisition was completed on January 1, 2017. The pro forma balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 is based on the assumption that Acquisition had occurred on that day.
During the first quarter of 2018, Crown adopted new accounting guidance related to the presentation of pension and other postretirement benefit costs. Under the new guidance, only the service cost component of pension and other postretirement benefit costs is presented with other employee compensation costs within income from operations. The other components are reported separately outside of income from operations. For the year ended December 31, 2017, Crown reclassed a net benefit of $54 in cost of products sold, excluding depreciation and amortization, and a net charge of $4 in selling and administrative expense to other pension and postretirement, a separate line item which is excluded from income from operations.
Pro forma adjustments reflected in the pro forma balance sheet are based on items that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the Acquisition. Pro forma adjustments reflected in the pro forma statement of operations are based on items that are factually supportable, which are directly attributable to the Acquisition, and which are expected to have a continuing impact on Crown’s results of operations and/or financial position. Any nonrecurring items directly attributable to the Acquisition are included in the pro forma balance sheet but not in the pro forma statements of operations. In contrast, any nonrecurring items that were already included in Crown’s or Signode’s historical consolidated financial statements that are not directly related to the Acquisition have not been eliminated. The pro formas do not reflect the cost of any integration activities or benefits from the Acquisition, including potential synergies that may be derived in future periods.
Note 2. The Acquisition
The Signode Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Under this method, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded based on preliminary estimates of fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the closing date. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, Crown defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The allocation of consideration paid is considered preliminary. Since the pro forma combined financial information has been prepared based on preliminary fair values, there can be no assurance that these additional analyses and final valuations will not result in significant changes to the estimates of fair value set forth below.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information reflects the acquisition of Signode for an estimated purchase price of $1,729. Crown also assumed and immediately repaid debt of $2,135, related accrued interest and premiums of $33 and $64 of related hedging instruments that was paid in conjunction with the closing of the Acquisition. The Acquisition was funded through the issuance of senior secured notes and senior secured term loan borrowings described further in Note 4(d).
The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows:

Cash | $ | 1,729 | ||
Total consideration | $ | 1,729 | ||
