Commitments And Contingencies [Abstract]
Commitments And Contingencies	Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies: Guarantees and Letters of Credit The Company has various bank guarantees and letters of credit which have been issued in connection with governmental requirements associated with pending litigation in various jurisdictions and to support its ongoing business operations. At March 31, 2012, the Company had bank guarantees and standby letters of credit aggregating $198.6 million with various financial institutions. Of this amount, Euro 99.5 million ($132.4 million) in bank guarantees are related to governmental requirements for income tax disputes in Spain, as discussed in further detail in Note 6. Also included in the above amount is an aggregate of $24.4 million in bank guarantees which the Company has posted to appeal a Spanish capital tax assessment, and certain other assessments in Brazil for other diverse income tax and indirect tax disputes concerning issues for fiscal years 1998-2011. The remaining bank guarantees and standby letters of credit have been granted primarily in the ordinary course of business. There were no material amounts utilized under the standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2012. In order to challenge the assessments in the Brazilian cases, the Company has also been required to pledge $22.1 million of assets, principally property, plant and equipment to cover assessments as of March 31, 2012. Lines of Credit The Company has various lines of credit (in addition to the credit facility—See Note 5) which are available to support its ongoing business operations. At March 31, 2012, we had available lines of credit of $75.2 million with various financial institutions. There were no significant amounts drawn down pursuant to these lines of credit as of March 31, 2012. Litigation The Company assesses contingencies related to litigation and/or other matters to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss. A loss contingency is accrued in the Company's consolidated financial statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews contingencies related to litigation to determine the adequacy of accruals. The liabilities are recorded at management's best estimate of the probable outcome of the lawsuits and claims, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the individual matters as well as past experience on similar matters. At each balance sheet date, the key issues that management assesses are whether it is probable that a loss as to asserted or unasserted claims has been incurred and if so, whether the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly sensitive and requires judgments about future events. The amount of ultimate loss may differ from these estimates and further events may require the Company to increase or decrease the amounts it has accrued on any matter. It is possible that cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected by the unfavorable or favorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies. Periodically, we assess our insurance coverage for all known claims, where applicable, taking into account aggregate coverage by occurrence, limits of coverage, self-insured retentions and deductibles, historical claims experience and claims experience with our insurance carriers. We recognize a receivable when we believe that realization of the insurance receivable is probable under the terms of the insurance policies and our payment experience to date. We record the expected liability with respect to claims in Other liabilities and expected recoveries from our insurance carriers in Other assets. *Environmental* Over the past 20 years, various federal and state authorities and private parties have claimed that the Company is a Potentially Responsible Party ("PRP") as a generator of waste materials for alleged pollution at a number of waste sites operated by third parties located principally in New Jersey and have sought to recover costs incurred and to be incurred to clean up the sites. The Company has been identified as a PRP at ten facilities operated by third parties at which investigation and/or remediation activities may be ongoing. The Company analyzes its liability on at least a quarterly basis. The Company accrues for environmental liabilities when they are probable and estimable. The Company estimates its share of the total future cost for these sites to be less than $5 million. While joint and several liability is authorized under federal and state environmental laws, the Company believes the amounts it has paid and anticipates paying in the future for clean-up costs and damages at all sites are not and will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. This assessment is based upon, among other things, the involvement of other PRPs at most sites, the status of the proceedings, including various settlement agreements and consent decrees, the extended time period over which payments will likely be made and an agreement reached in July 1994 with three of the Company's liability insurers pursuant to which defense costs and indemnity amounts payable by the Company in respect of the sites will be shared by the insurers up to an agreed amount. There can be no assurance, however, that future events will not require us to materially increase the amounts we anticipate paying for clean-up costs and damages at these sites. Other Contingencies The Company has contingencies in various jurisdictions in which it operates pertaining to such items as value- added taxes, capital and other indirect taxes, customs and duties and sales and use taxes, the most significant existing in Spain and Brazil. The Spanish tax authorities are alleging claims for a capital tax case arising from similar facts related to income tax deductions taken in the Spanish subsidiaries tax returns, as discussed in further detail in Note 6. The Company has recorded provisions only in those cases where the loss is both probable and estimable. The Company cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible loss for the vast majority of the Brazilian matters due to the extended period of time to proceed through the judicial process and given the fact that the vast majority of the underlying positions under dispute had either no ruling or favorable rulings to date. With respect to the Spanish capital tax assessment, the Company intends to vigorously defend, and believes that it has valid defenses for, its underlying positions under dispute. In addition to the above, the Company is a party, from time to time, to various claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business including but not limited to those relating to intellectual property disputes, product liability claims, workers' compensation, etc. The Company does not believe that any of these individual matters would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
