During fourth quarter of 2016, the Company decided to sell its Brazilian chemical business to focus on its Brazilian consumer business, resulting in a plant impairment charge of $4.9 recognized in the fourth quarter of 2016 based upon an anticipated selling price.  During the first quarter of 2017, the Company signed an agreement to sell the business, resulting in an approximate $5.0 expense for severance and other charges.  Sales for the Brazilian chemical business in 2016 were approximately $22.0.  The Company anticipates the transaction to close during the first quarter.
