The fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 includes a $7.4 million loss attributable to a non-strategic facility sold during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017. No other components of other charges and income, net incurred during fiscal year 2017 were material.
During fiscal year 2016, the Company incurred net losses of $47.7 million primarily due to $26.8 million loss on disposition of a non-strategic Western European manufacturing facility, which included a non-cash foreign currency translation loss of $25.3 million, and $21.8 million from the impairment of a non-core investment. These were offset by currency translation gains of $4.2 million.
During fiscal year 2015, an amendment to a customer contract to reimburse a customer for certain performance provisions was executed which included the removal of a $55.0 million contractual obligation recognized during fiscal year 2014. Accordingly, the Company reversed this charge with a corresponding credit to other charges (income), net in the consolidated statement of operations. Additionally, during fiscal year 2015, the Company recognized a loss of $11.0 million in connection with the disposition of a manufacturing facility in Western Europe. The Company received $11.5 million in cash for the sale of $27.2 million in net assets of the facility. The loss also includes $4.6 million of estimated transaction costs, partially offset by a gain of $9.3 million for the release of cumulative foreign currency translation gains triggered by the disposition.
