Rationalization reserves as of March 31, 2026 were recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as accrued liabilities of $21.0 million and other liabilities of $24.0 million. Excluding the impact of our withdrawal from the Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Plan, or the Central States Pension Plan, in 2019, remaining expenses and cash expenditures for our rationalization plans are expected to be $18.1 million and $38.1 million, respectively. Remaining expenses for the accretion of interest for the withdrawal liability related to the Central States Pension Plan are expected to average approximately $0.7 million per year and be recognized annually through 2040, and remaining cash expenditures for the withdrawal liability related to the Central States Pension Plan are expected to be approximately $2.6 million annually through 2040.

At March 31, 2026, the current portion of long-term debt consisted of $405.0 million of U.S. revolving loans, $489.7 million of Euro revolving loans and $51.8 million of Euro term loans under our amended and restated senior secured credit facility, as amended, or the Credit Agreement, $38.3 million of other foreign bank revolving and term loans and $3.5 million of finance leases.

On February 3, 2026, we prepaid $42.5 million principal amount of outstanding U.S. term loans under the Credit Agreement with cash on hand.

On March 6, 2026, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, or the Sixth Amendment, with the lenders party to the Credit Agreement and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Sixth Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to improve the interest rate margin grid for term loans and eliminate the credit spread adjustments effective March 6, 2026 for Term SOFR Loans, Daily Simple RFR Loans and Term CORRA Loans (each as defined in the Credit Agreement). Effective with the Sixth Amendment, the margin for term loans maintained as Eurocurrency Rate Loans and RFR Loans (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) was 1.25 percent, and the margin for term loans maintained as Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) was 0.25 percent. In accordance with the Sixth Amendment, the margin for term loans and revolving loans will be reset quarterly after March 31, 2026 based upon our Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as provided in the Credit Agreement. The range for the applicable margin for term loans will be 0.00 percent to 0.50 percent for Base Rate Loans and 1.00 percent to 1.50 percent for Eurocurrency Rate Loans and RFR Loans.

On March 31, 2026, we repaid all $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 1.4% Senior Secured Notes due 2026, or the 1.4% Notes, at 100 percent of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repayment date. We funded this repayment with revolving loan borrowings under the Credit Agreement and cash on hand. As a result of such redemption and satisfaction and discharge of the indenture for the 1.4% Notes (including the discharge of the guarantees therein of the 1.4% Notes by our U.S. subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement), the guarantees of the 4⅛% Senior Notes, the 2¼% Senior Notes and the 4¼% Senior Notes by our U.S. subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement were automatically released and discharged on March 31, 2026.

The financial instruments recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, debt obligations and swap agreements. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable approximate their fair market values. The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our other financial instruments at March 31, 2026:

Fair Value Measurements

GAAP 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 (exit price). GAAP classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into a hierarchy consisting of three levels. Level 1 inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs represent unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

The financial assets and liabilities that were measured on a recurring basis at March 31, 2026 consisted of our cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments. We measured the fair value of cash and cash equivalents using Level 1 inputs. We measured the fair value of our derivative instruments using the income approach. The fair value of our derivative instruments reflects the estimated amounts that we would pay or receive based on the present value of the expected cash flows derived from market interest rates and prices. As such, these derivative instruments were classified within Level 2.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value

Our bank debt, 4⅛% Senior Notes, 2¼% Senior Notes and 4¼% Senior Notes were recorded at historical amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as we have not elected to measure them at fair value. We measured the fair value of our variable rate bank debt using the market approach based on Level 2 inputs. Fair values of the 4⅛% Senior Notes, 2¼% Senior Notes and 4¼% Senior Notes were estimated based on quoted market prices, a Level 1 input.

Our derivative financial instruments were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair values. Changes in fair values of derivatives are recorded in each period in earnings or comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction.

We utilize certain derivative financial instruments to manage a portion of our interest rate and natural gas cost exposures. We generally limit our use of derivative financial instruments to interest rate and natural gas swap agreements. We do not engage in trading or other speculative uses of these financial instruments. For a financial instrument to qualify as a hedge, we must be exposed to interest rate or price risk, and the financial instrument must reduce the exposure and be designated as a hedge. Financial instruments qualifying for hedge accounting must maintain a high correlation between the hedging instrument and the item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedged period.

We also utilize certain internal hedging strategies to minimize our foreign currency exchange rate risk. Net investment hedges that qualify for hedge accounting result in the recognition of foreign currency gains or losses, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss. 

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had outstanding $300 million aggregate notional principal amount of U.S. dollar interest rate swap agreements with a weighted average fixed rate of 3.90 percent and €685.0 million aggregate notional principal amount of Euro interest rate swap agreements with a weighted average fixed rate of 2.43 percent. These agreements were entered into with financial institutions which are expected to fully perform under the terms thereof. The difference between amounts to be paid or received on our interest rate swap agreements is recorded in interest and other debt expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The total fair value of our interest rate swaps agreements in effect at March 31, 2026 was not significant.

Natural Gas Swap Agreements

We have entered into natural gas swap agreements to manage a portion of our exposure to fluctuations in natural gas prices. The difference between amounts to be paid or received on our natural gas swap agreements is recorded in cost of goods sold in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2026. These agreements are with a financial institution which is expected to fully perform under the terms thereof. The total fair value of our natural gas swap agreements in effect at March 31, 2026 was not significant.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

In an effort to minimize our foreign currency exchange rate risk, we have financed acquisitions of foreign operations primarily with borrowings denominated in Euros. In addition, where available, we have borrowed funds in local currency or implemented certain internal hedging strategies to minimize our foreign currency exchange rate risk related to foreign operations, including net investment hedges related to the Euro term loans under the Credit Agreement which are Euro denominated. Foreign currency gains related to our net investment hedges included in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $31.3 million.

Supply Chain Finance Program Supply Chain Finance Program
We have a supply chain finance (“SCF”) program with a major global financial institution. Under this SCF program, a qualifying supplier may elect, but is not obligated, to sell its receivables from us to such financial institution. Once a qualifying supplier elects to participate in this SCF program, all of our payments to the participating supplier are paid to such financial institution in this SCF program on the invoice due date under our agreement with such supplier, regardless of whether the individual invoice was sold by the supplier to such financial institution. We may terminate our agreement with the financial institution upon at least 30 days’ notice, and the financial institution may terminate our agreement upon at least 10 days’ notice. Additionally, suppliers who elect to participate in this SCF program may terminate their participation upon at least 30 days’ notice. The suppliers' invoices sold under this SCF program can be outstanding up to 210 days from the invoice date. Suppliers’ invoices included in this SCF program were $357.6 million, $262.9 million and $438.5 million at March 31, 2026 and 2025 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and were included in accounts payable in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On November 5, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase by us of up to an aggregate of $500.0 million of our common stock by various means from time to time through and including December 31, 2029. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock pursuant to this authorization during the three months ended March 31, 2026. At March 31, 2026, we had $500.0 million remaining under this authorization for the repurchase of our common stock.

During the first three months of 2026, we issued 390,639 treasury shares which had an average cost of $3.13 per share for restricted stock units that vested during the period that had been previously issued under our stock-based compensation plans. In accordance with the applicable agreements for such restricted stock units, we repurchased 152,852 shares of our common stock at an average cost of $47.57 to satisfy minimum employee withholding tax requirements resulting from the vesting of such restricted stock units.

We account for treasury shares using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method. As of March 31, 2026, 69,432,738 shares of our common stock were held in treasury.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
Our chief operating decision maker, who is our Chief Executive Officer and President, evaluates performance of our business segments and allocates resources based on the adjusted EBIT of our business segments. Adjusted EBIT is not a defined term under GAAP. We define adjusted EBIT as income before interest and income taxes excluding acquired intangible asset amortization expense, other pension (income) expense for U.S. pension plans and closed facilities, rationalization charges and costs attributed to announced acquisitions and including, as applicable, equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax. Adjusted EBIT should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income before interest and income taxes or any other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures by other companies.

Net sales and adjusted EBIT of our metal containers segment and of part of our dispensing and specialty closures segment are dependent, in part, upon the vegetable and fruit harvests in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in a variety of national growing regions in Europe. The size and quality of these harvests varies from year to year, depending in large part upon the weather conditions in applicable regions. Because of the seasonality of the harvests, we have historically experienced higher unit sales volume in the third quarter of our fiscal year and generated a disproportionate amount of our annual adjusted EBIT during that quarter.
