Insurance Recovery
During the second and third quarters of 2015, the Company's production rates and operating costs at its Knapsack, Germany and Cologne, Germany facilities were negatively impacted due to an interruption of feedstock supply as a result of a fire at a third-party supplier's ethylene production facility. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized approximately $3,347 and $7,809, respectively, as a partial insurance recovery related to business interruption costs, primarily for additional costs incurred to procure the necessary feedstock and other costs as a result of the fire at the third-party facility. The partial insurance recovery is included in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations.
