(a)The gain in 2020 is primarily related to the market value increase of our investment in MoneyGram International, Inc.

(b)Amounts in 2020 represent currency transaction losses on contingent consideration payable related to G4S business acquisitions. Prior to the July 1, 2018 highly inflationary designation for accounting purposes, currency transaction losses incurred by Brink's Argentina related to its U.S. dollar-denominated payables to the sellers of Maco Transporatadora and Maco Litoral.

(c)Represents loss on foreign currency forward contracts related to acquisition of business operations from G4S.

(d)Related to an unfavorable court ruling in 2019 on a non-income tax claim in Colombia. The court ruled that Brink's must pay interest accruing from 2009 to the current date. The principal amount of the claim was less than $1 million and was recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2019.

(e)Certain of our Latin American subsidiaries incur non-income taxes related to the billing of intercompany charges. These intercompany charges do not impact segment results and are eliminated in our consolidation.

(f)Charges incurred for providing financial support to Brink's Venezuelan subsidiaries after the June 30, 2018 deconsolidation. We do not expect any future funding of the Venezuela business, as long as current U.S. sanctions remain in effect.

(g)Gain on termination of a mining lease obligation related to former coal operations. We have no remaining mining leases.

(h)Gains on the sale of our former French airport security services subsidiary in the second quarter of 2018 (adjusted downward by $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020) and on our former French security services subsidiary in the first quarter of 2020 (adjusted downward by $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020).
