A fire caused damage to Aptar’s facility in Annecy, France in June 2016.  The fire was contained to one of three production units and there were no reported injuries. Aptar Annecy supplies anodized aluminum components for certain Aptar dispensing systems.  While repairs are underway, Aptar will source from its network of suppliers as well as from its anodizing facility in Brazil.  The Company is insured for the damages caused by the fire, including business interruption insurance, and it does not expect this incident to have a material impact on its financial results.  Losses related to the fire of $5.0 million and $9.9 million were incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we have received insurance proceeds of $12.0 million.  As our cash receipts are in excess of costs incurred, we currently have a prepayment of $4.0 million at June 30, 2017, which is included in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.  In many cases, our insurance coverage exceeds the amount of these recognized losses. No gain contingencies have been recognized as our ability to realize those gains remains uncertain.  Profitability was negatively impacted by $1.4 million and $2.7 million related to the Annecy fire during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.  These costs are included in the Beauty + Home segment.
