NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. The terms “AptarGroup” or “Company” as used herein refer to AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

In the opinion of management, the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Also, certain financial position data included herein was derived from the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Accordingly, these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company changed its inventory valuation method for certain operating entities in its North American business to the first-in first-out (FIFO) method from the last-in first-out (LIFO) method. Prior to the change, the Company utilized two methods of inventory costing: LIFO for inventories in these operating entities and FIFO for inventories in other operating entities. The Company believes that the FIFO method is preferable as it better reflects the current value of inventory on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, provides better matching of revenues and expenses, results in uniformity across the Company’s global operations with respect to the method of inventory accounting and improves comparability with the Company’s peers. The cumulative pre-tax effect of this change was a gain of approximately $7.4 million and was recognized as a decrease to Cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). The effect of the change on Net Income Attributable to AptarGroup was approximately $4.8 million, representing approximately $0.08 per diluted share. The change to the FIFO method was not applied retrospectively because the impact to previously issued financial statements or to the trend of reported results of operations was immaterial.

ADOPTION OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification.

In May 2014, the FASB amended the guidance for recognition of revenue from customer contracts. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in the amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB decided to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The FASB also decided to allow early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. Subsequent to the initial standards, the FASB has also issued several Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to clarify specific revenue recognition topics. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Table of Contents

In April 2015, the FASB issued an ASU intended to simplify GAAP by changing the presentation of debt issuance costs. Under the new standard, debt issuance costs will be presented as a reduction of the carrying amount of the related liability, rather than as an asset. The new treatment is consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued an ASU clarifying that debt issuance costs related to line of credit arrangements can be classified as an asset and amortized ratably over the term of the line of credit arrangement. These standards were effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has implemented these standards within the current financial statements and retrospectively applied the changes to the prior periods as required, which resulted in a $1.7 million reclassification from Intangible Assets to Current Maturities of Long-Term Obligations and Long-Term Obligations in the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In April 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on a customer's accounting for fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”). Previously, there was no specific GAAP guidance on accounting for such fees from the customer's perspective. Under the new standard, customers will apply the same criteria as vendors to determine whether a CCA contains a software license or is solely a service contract. This standard was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has adopted the requirements of the standard with respect to its current CCAs and has determined that the impact is not material to our current year financial statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on investment disclosures. Investments measured at net asset value (“NAV”), as a practical expedient for fair value, are excluded from the fair value hierarchy. Removing investments measured using the practical expedient from the fair value hierarchy is intended to eliminate the diversity in practice that currently exists with respect to the categorization of these investments. The Company has adopted the standard and determined that there was no impact to the current period financial statements and that the presentation of pension plan investment fair value hierarchy tables in the annual financial statements will be updated accordingly.

In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies the balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The new guidance requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be presented as non-current in a classified statement of financial position. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has prospectively adopted the requirements of the standard and updated the presentation of our classified statement of financial position accordingly.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

RETIREMENT OF COMMON STOCK

During the first six months of 2016, the Company repurchased and immediately retired 636 thousand shares of common stock. Common stock was reduced by the number of shares retired at $0.01 par value per share. The excess of purchase price over par value may be charged entirely to retained earnings or may be allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. The Company has elected to allocate the excess purchase price over par value between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings.

INCOME TAXES

The Company computes taxes on income in accordance with the tax rules and regulations of the many taxing authorities where income is earned. The income tax rates imposed by these taxing authorities may vary substantially. Taxable income may differ from pre-tax income for financial accounting purposes. To the extent that these differences create differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and our reported amount in the financial statements, an appropriate provision for deferred income taxes is made.

In making the determination of which foreign earnings are permanently reinvested in foreign operations, the Company considers numerous factors, including the financial requirements of the U.S. parent company and those of our foreign subsidiaries, the U.S. funding needs for dividend payments and stock repurchases, and the tax consequences of remitting earnings to the U.S. From this analysis, current year repatriation decisions are made in an attempt to provide a proper mix of debt and shareholder capital both within the U.S. and for non-U.S. operations. The Company's policy is to permanently reinvest our accumulated foreign earnings and the Company will only make a distribution out of current year earnings to meet the cash needs at the parent company. As such, the Company does not provide for taxes on earnings that are deemed to be permanently reinvested.

The Company provides a liability for the amount of tax benefits realized from uncertain tax positions. This liability is provided whenever the Company determines that a tax benefit will not meet a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition. See Note 4 of the Unaudited Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

REVISION OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the third quarter of 2015, the Company determined that it had incorrectly accounted for the reissuance of treasury shares in connection with certain employee stock option exercises. The Company’s policy is to reissue treasury shares at cost on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. However, beginning in 2007 shares were reissued at a cost other than FIFO. The effect of correcting this error results in a credit adjustment to the treasury stock at cost with a corresponding debit adjustment to the capital in excess of par value. As this adjustment represents a reclassification between two accounts within Stockholders’ Equity, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity are impacted by this change. The revisions, which the Company determined are not material, had no impact on consolidated results of operations or cash flows. Following is a summary of the previously issued financial statement line items impacted by this revision for all periods and statements included in this report:

Aggregate amortization expense for the intangible assets above for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $2,749 and $1,085, respectively. Aggregate amortization expense for the intangible assets above for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $4,235 and $2,166, respectively.

Future estimated amortization expense for the years ending December 31 is as follows:


2016	$	5,082	(remaining estimated amortization for 2016)
2017		10,079
2018		10,083
2019		9,883
2020 and thereafter		68,416

Future amortization expense may fluctuate depending on changes in foreign currency rates. The estimates for amortization expense noted above are based upon foreign exchange rates as of June 30, 2016.

NOTE 4 — INCOME TAX UNCERTAINTIES

The Company had approximately $8.3 and $7.9 million recorded for income tax uncertainties as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Increases were primarily due to a tax audit in France and currency fluctuations. These were partially offset by the lapse of the statute of limitations in two jurisdictions. The amount, if recognized, that would impact the effective tax rate is $8.3 and $7.9 million, respectively. The Company estimates that it is reasonably possible that the liability for uncertain tax positions will decrease by no more than $6.3 million in the next twelve months from the resolution of various uncertain positions as a result of the completion of tax audits, litigation and the expiration of the statute of limitations in various jurisdictions.

NOTE 5 – LONG –TERM OBLIGATIONS

In December 2014, we executed a $475 million private placement to take advantage of low long-term interest rates. At that time, we closed on $250 million of the private placement to fund our accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) program (see Note 11). This closing consisted of two maturity tranches, with $125 million of 9 year notes at an interest rate of 3.49% and $125 million of 11 year notes at an interest rate of 3.61%. We closed on the remaining $225 million of the private placement in February 2015, consisting of $100 million of 9 year notes at an interest rate of 3.49% and $125 million of 11 year notes at an interest rate of 3.61%. The proceeds from this closing were used to pay down the existing revolving line of credit.

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company maintains a foreign exchange risk management policy designed to establish a framework to protect the value of the Company’s non-functional denominated transactions from adverse changes in exchange rates. Sales of the Company’s products can be denominated in a currency different from the currency in which the related costs to produce the product are denominated. Changes in exchange rates on such inter-country sales or intercompany loans can impact the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s policy is not to engage in speculative foreign currency hedging activities, but to minimize our net foreign currency transaction exposure, defined as firm commitments and transactions recorded and denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. The Company may use foreign currency forward exchange contracts, options and cross currency swaps to economically hedge these risks.

For derivative instruments designated as hedges, the Company formally documents the nature and relationships between the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as the risk management objectives, strategies for undertaking the various hedge transactions, and the method of assessing hedge effectiveness. Additionally, in order to designate any derivative instrument as a hedge of an anticipated transaction, the significant characteristics and expected terms of any anticipated transaction must be specifically identified, and it must be probable that the anticipated transaction will occur.

Table of Contents

HEDGE OF NET INVESTMENTS IN FOREIGN OPERATIONS

A significant number of the Company’s operations are located outside of the United States. Because of this, movements in exchange rates may have a significant impact on the translation of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. A strengthening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has a dilutive translation effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, a weakening U.S. dollar has an additive effect. The Company in some cases maintains debt in these subsidiaries to offset the net asset exposure. The Company does not otherwise actively manage this risk using derivative financial instruments. In the event the Company plans on a full or partial liquidation of any of our foreign subsidiaries where the Company’s net investment is likely to be monetized, the Company will consider hedging the currency exposure associated with such a transaction.

OTHER

As of June 30, 2016, the Company has recorded the fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts of $1.1 million in prepaid and other, $4.9 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $27 thousand in deferred and other non-current liabilities in the balance sheet. All forward exchange contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2016 had an aggregate contract amount of $111.0 million.

NOTE 9 — FAIR VALUE

Authoritative guidelines require the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

As of June 30, 2016, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities were categorized as follows:


	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets
Forward exchange contracts (a)	$	1,050	$	—	$	1,050	$	—
Total assets at fair value	$	1,050	$	—	$	1,050	$	—

Market approach valuation technique based on observable market transactions of spot and forward rates.

Table of Contents

The carrying amounts of the Company’s other current financial instruments such as cash and equivalents, notes payable and current maturities of long-term obligations approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of the instrument. The Company considers our long-term obligations a Level 2 liability and utilizes the market approach valuation technique based on interest rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms and maturities. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term obligations was $809 million as of June 30, 2016 and $760 million as of December 31, 2015.

NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company, in the normal course of business, is subject to a number of lawsuits and claims both actual and potential in nature. While management believes the resolution of these claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations or cash flows, claims and legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could occur that could include amounts in excess of any accruals which management has established. Were such unfavorable final outcomes to occur, it is possible that they could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Under our Certificate of Incorporation, the Company has agreed to indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at our request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, the Company has a directors and officers liability insurance policy that covers a portion of our exposure. As a result of our insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. The Company has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of June 30, 2016.

NOTE 11 — STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On October 30, 2014, the Company announced a share repurchase authorization of up to $350 million of common stock. This authorization replaces previous authorizations and has no expiration date. AptarGroup may repurchase shares through the open market, privately negotiated transactions or other programs, subject to market conditions.

On December 16, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to repurchase approximately $250 million of its common stock under an accelerated share repurchase program (the “ASR program”). The ASR program is part of the Company’s $350 million share repurchase authorization. On December 17, 2014, the Company paid $250 million to Wells Fargo Bank N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) in exchange for approximately 3.1 million shares. On September 25, 2015, the Company settled the ASR program with Wells Fargo and received approximately 719 thousand additional shares. The total number of shares repurchased under the ASR program was approximately 3.8 million shares.

Shares repurchased subsequent to the completion of the ASR program are immediately retired. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company repurchased approximately 523 thousand and 636 thousand shares for approximately $40.1 million and $48.7 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company did not repurchase any shares. As of June 30, 2016, there was $37.4 million of authorized share repurchases available to the Company.

NOTE 12 — STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company issues stock options and restricted stock units to employees under Stock Awards Plans approved by shareholders. Stock options and restricted stock units are issued to non-employee directors under Director Stock Option Plans and the Director Restricted Stock Unit Plan approved by shareholders. Options are awarded with the exercise price equal to the market price on the date of grant and generally become exercisable over three years and expire 10 years after grant. Restricted stock units granted to employees generally vest over three years.

Compensation expense recorded attributable to stock options for the first six months of 2016 was approximately $12.7 million ($8.5 million after tax). The income tax benefit related to this compensation expense was approximately $4.2 million. Approximately $11.2 million of the compensation expense was recorded in selling, research & development and administrative expenses and the balance was recorded in cost of sales. Compensation expense recorded attributable to stock options for the first six months of 2015 was approximately $12.0 million ($7.8 million after tax). The income tax benefit related to this compensation expense was approximately $4.2 million. Approximately $10.7 million of the compensation expense was recorded in selling, research & development and administrative expenses and the balance was recorded in cost of sales.

Table of Contents

The Company uses historical data to estimate expected life and volatility. The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted under the Stock Awards Plans was $12.87 and $12.83 per share during the first six months of 2016 and 2015, respectively. These values were estimated on the respective dates of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:


Stock Awards Plans:
Six Months Ended June 30,	2016		2015

Dividend Yield	1.8	%	1.7	%
Expected Stock Price Volatility	20.4	%	21.9	%
Risk-free Interest Rate	1.6	%	1.6	%
Expected Life of Option (years)	6.7		6.9

There were no grants under the Director Stock Option Plan during the second quarter of 2015 as this plan was cancelled and replaced by the Director Restricted Stock Unit Plan.

A summary of option activity under the Company’s stock plans during the six months ended June 30, 2016 is presented below:

Note 15 – INSURANCE SETTLEMENT RECEIVABLE

A fire caused damages to AptarGroup’s facility in Annecy, France on June 25, 2016. There were no reported injuries. The cause of the fire is under investigation and was contained to one of three production units. Aptar Annecy supplies anodized aluminum components for certain AptarGroup dispensing systems. While repairs are underway, AptarGroup will source from its network of suppliers as well as from its anodizing facility in Brazil. AptarGroup 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. Costs, including the write-off of damaged fixed assets and inventory along with labor and other direct costs related to fire, of $0.6 million were incurred during the quarter. These costs have been reported within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and have been offset by the expected insurance proceeds within the same financial statement line items as the losses.

Table of Contents

As we are still in the investigation phase, we have only established an insurance receivable for known losses for which we believe insurance reimbursement is probable. In many cases, our insurance coverage exceeds the amount of these covered losses, but no gain contingencies have been recognized as our ability to realize those gains remains uncertain for financial reporting purposes.

A separate fire caused damage to the roof and production area of one of the Company’s facilities in Brazil in September 2014. There were no injuries. The facility is primarily an internal supplier of anodized aluminum components for certain dispensing systems sold to the regional beauty and personal care markets. Repairs of the facility were essentially completed in the fourth quarter 2015. AptarGroup is insured for the damages caused by the fire, including business interruption insurance. While the Company is still in the process of reviewing claims with our insurance carriers, we have a $1.8 million receivable related to costs incurred but not yet reimbursed, which is included in Prepaid and Other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. This incident did not have a material impact on our financial results during the first six months of either 2016 or 2015 and we expect to reach a final insurance settlement during 2016.

NOTE 16 – ACQUISITIONS

On February 29, 2016, the Company completed its acquisition of MegaPlast GmbH and its subsidiaries along with Megaplast France S.a.r.l and Mega Pumps L.P. (Mega Airless). Mega Airless is a leading provider of innovative all-plastic airless dispensing systems for the beauty, personal care and pharmaceutical markets and operates two manufacturing facilities in Germany and one in the United States. The purchase price paid for Mega Airless was approximately $223.2 million ($203.0 million net of cash received) and was funded by cash on hand and borrowings on our revolving line of credit.

Mega Airless contributed sales of $18.4 million and pretax income of $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 Mega reported sales of $24.6 million and no 2016 pretax income due to a purchase accounting adjustment of $2.6 million related to the inventory fair value adjustment. The results of the acquired business from the acquisition date are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and are reported in the Beauty + Home and Pharma reporting segments.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized $5.6 million in transaction costs related to the acquisition of Mega Airless. These costs are reflected in the selling, research & development and administrative section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date at estimated fair value. If additional information is obtained about these assets and liabilities within the measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition), the Company may refine its estimates of fair value to allocate the purchase price more accurately.

Table of Contents

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016 we continued to obtain information to refine estimated fair values. As a result of the additional information the significant adjustments to the carrying amounts were as follows:

property, plant and equipment and intangible assets were increased by $0.6 million and $4.1 million, respectively

deferred income tax liabilities increased by $1.0 million

goodwill decreased by $3.7 million

The measurement period adjustments did not result in a significant adjustment to depreciation and amortization expense for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016.

The following table is a summary of the fair value estimates of the acquired identifiable intangible assets and weighted-average useful lives as of the acquisition date:


	Weighted-Average	Estimated
	Useful Life	Fair Value
	(in years)	of Asset
Customer relationships	11	$	57,120
Technology	15		10,838
Trademark	4		4,148
Total		$	72,106

Based on the initial calculations, goodwill in the amount of $106.0 million was recorded for the acquisition of Mega Airless, of which $50.1 million and $55.9 million is included in the Beauty + Home and Pharma segments, respectively. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets acquired and represents the estimated future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill largely consists of leveraging the Company’s commercial presence in selling the Mega Airless line of products in markets where Mega Airless did not previously operate and the ability of Mega Airless to maintain its competitive advantage from a technical viewpoint. Goodwill will not be amortized, but will be tested for impairment at least annually. We do not expect any of the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes.

The unaudited pro forma results presented below include the effects of the Mega Airless acquisition as if it had occurred as of January 1, 2015. The unaudited pro forma results reflect certain adjustments related to the acquisition, such as the amortization associated with estimates for the acquired intangible assets and fair value adjustments for inventory. The 2016 pro forma earnings were adjusted to exclude $4.2 million after tax ($5.6 million pretax) of transaction costs, including consulting, legal, and advisory fees. The 2016 pro forma earnings were also adjusted to exclude $1.7 million after tax ($2.6 million pretax) of nonrecurring expense related to the fair value adjustment to acquisition-date inventory. The 2015 pro forma earnings were adjusted to include these adjustments.

The pro forma results do not include any synergies or other expected benefits of the acquisition. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma financial information below is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the acquisition been completed on the dates indicated.

NET SALES

We reported net sales of $620.0 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016, which represents a 4% increase compared to $594.3 million reported during the second quarter of 2015. The average U.S. dollar exchange rate strengthened compared to all major currencies impacting our business except the Euro, resulting in a negative currency translation impact of 2%. The acquisition of Mega Airless positively impacted sales by 3%. Therefore core sales, which exclude acquisitions and changes in foreign currency rates, increased by 3% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015. Core sales were also negatively impacted by 1% due to lower tooling sales and the pass through of lower resin costs in our pricing. Strong product sales in our Beauty + Home and Pharma segments were offset by softness in our Food + Beverage segment:

For the first six months of 2016, we reported net sales of $1.20 billion, 2% above the first six months of 2015 reported net sales of $1.18 billion. The average U.S. dollar exchange rate was flat compared to the Euro but strengthened compared to all other major currencies impacting our business, resulting in a negative currency translation impact of 2%. The acquisition of Mega Airless positively impacted sales by 2%. Therefore, core sales for the first six months of 2016 increased by 2% compared to the first six months of 2015. Core sales were also negatively impacted by 2% due to lower tooling sales and the pass through of lower resin costs in our pricing:

COST OF SALES (EXCLUSIVE OF DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION SHOWN BELOW)

Our cost of sales (“COS”) as a percent of net sales decreased to 62.9% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 63.1% in the second quarter of 2015. The decrease is partially due to lower material costs and mix of sales within our business segments. Tooling sales were approximately $7.0 million lower in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the prior year. Sales of custom tooling typically generates lower margins than product sales, thus positively impacting cost of sales as a percentage of sales. Prior year COS as a percentage of net sales is positively impacted by a $7.4 million change in accounting principle related to inventory valuation methods discussed in Note 1 to the Unaudited Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Such gains were absent in the current year.

Cost of sales as a percent of net sales decreased to 63.5% in the first six months of 2016 compared to 64.3% in the same period a year ago. The decrease is mainly due to the mix of sales across our different business segments as sales in our Pharma segment drove a higher percentage of overall sales. This positively impacts our COS percentage as margins on our pharmaceutical products typically are higher than the overall Company average. Also, tooling sales were approximately $11.2 million lower in the first six months of 2016 compared to the prior year, which leads to a lower COS percentage as discussed above. 2016 results include $2.6 million of incremental costs due to a purchase accounting adjustment related to the write-up to fair value of the Mega Airless inventory while 2015 results were positively impacted by the $7.4 million change in accounting principle related to inventory valuation methods in the prior year.

SELLING, RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE

Our Selling, Research & Development and Administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased by approximately $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period a year ago. Excluding changes in foreign currency rates, SG&A increased by approximately $7.9 million in the quarter. $2.5 million of this increase is due to the incremental operating expenses related to the Mega Airless acquisition. We also incurred higher information technology costs associated with our ongoing enterprise resource planning system implementation, and general increases in compensation expense, including stock-based compensation. Due to these higher costs, SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased to 15.5% compared to 15.0% in the same period of the prior year.

SG&A increased by approximately $13.6 million to $199.1 million in the first six months of 2016 compared to $185.5 million during the same period a year ago. Excluding changes in foreign currency rates, SG&A increased by approximately $18.5 million in the first six months of the year. The increase is mainly due to transaction costs of $5.6 million related to the Mega Airless acquisition, along with $3.2 million of Mega Airless operational expenses, higher information technology costs associated with our ongoing enterprise resource planning system implementation, and general increases in compensation expense as mentioned above. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased to 16.6% in the first six months of 2016 compared to 15.6% in the first six months of 2015.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Reported depreciation and amortization expenses increased by approximately $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period a year ago. Excluding changes in foreign currency rates, depreciation and amortization increased by approximately $6.4 million in the quarter compared to the same period a year ago. The increase is mainly due to $4.3 million of incremental depreciation and amortization related to the Mega Airless acquisition, our continued investments in new products and the roll-out of our global enterprise resource planning system. Due to these higher expenses, depreciation and amortization as a percentage of net sales increased to 6.5% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 5.8% for the same period a year ago.

Table of Contents

For the first six months of 2016, reported depreciation and amortization expenses increased by approximately $8.1 million to $76.3 million compared to $68.2 million in the first half of 2015. Excluding changes in foreign currency rates, depreciation and amortization increased by approximately $9.4 million in the first six months of 2016. As discussed above, the increase is mainly due to $5.7 million of incremental depreciation and amortization related to the Mega Airless acquisition along with our investments in new products and the roll-out of our global enterprise resource planning system. Depreciation and amortization as a percentage of net sales also increased to 6.3% compared to 5.8% for the same period a year ago.

OPERATING INCOME

Operating income decreased approximately $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2016 to $93.6 million compared to $95.5 million in the same period in the prior year. Excluding changes in foreign currency rates and the $7.4 million change in accounting principle related to inventory valuation methods mentioned above, operating income increased by approximately $6.1 million in the quarter compared to the same period a year ago. Strong core sales growth in our Beauty + Home and Pharma segments was offset by softness in the Food + Beverage segment along with higher SG&A and depreciation and amortization costs. As reported, operating income as a percentage of net sales decreased to 15.1% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 16.1% for the same period in the prior year.

Operating income decreased approximately $6.3 million to $162.8 million in the first six months of 2016 compared to $169.1 million in the same period in the prior year. Excluding changes in currency rates and the $7.4 million change in accounting principle related to inventory valuation methods, operating income increased by approximately $3.4 million in the first six months of 2016. As mentioned above, strong sales growth was offset by higher fixed costs along with $5.6 million of Mega Airless acquisition costs and a $2.6 million purchase accounting adjustment related to the write-up to fair value of the Mega Airless inventory which was purchased and subsequently sold during the quarter. Operating income as a percentage of sales decreased to 13.6% in the first six months of 2016 compared to 14.3% for the same period in the prior year.

NET OTHER EXPENSE

Net other expense in the second quarter of 2016 decreased to $9.3 million from $9.8 million in the same period in the prior year. This is due to lower foreign exchange costs on our forward exchange contracts as we experienced less exchange rate volatility in certain countries during the second quarter 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Net other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $18.6 million from $15.7 million in the same period in the prior year. We recognized lower interest income and higher interest expense as we funded our Mega Airless acquisition with cash on hand and borrowings on our revolving line of credit.

EFFECTIVE TAX RATE

The reported effective tax rate decreased to 30.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 32.9% for the same period ended June 30, 2015. The reported effective tax rate also decreased to 28.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 33.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in the rate for the three months ended June 30, 2016 is primarily attributable to a reduction in the French corporate tax rate along with higher investment tax incentives. The decrease in the rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is attributable to both the reduction in the French corporate tax rate and higher investment tax incentives as well as from the recognition of benefits associated with refunds in France pursuant to a finalized court ruling.

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO APTARGROUP, INC.

We reported net income attributable to AptarGroup, Inc. of $59.0 million and $102.9 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to $57.5 million and $102.7 million for the same periods in the prior year.

BEAUTY + HOME SEGMENT

Operations that sell dispensing systems primarily to the personal care, beauty and home care markets form the Beauty + Home segment.

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 increased 7% to $340.3 million compared to $319.1 million in the second quarter of the prior year. The Mega Airless acquisition positively impacted net sales by 5% in the second quarter of 2016 while changes in currency rates negatively impacted net sales by 2%. Therefore, core sales increased 4% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Core sales growth to the beauty and home care markets of 12% and 7%, respectively, more than offset a core sales decline in the personal care market of 5% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. We saw some markets begin to recover in Europe during the second quarter of 2016, with Beauty showing positive growth in the fragrance and facial skin care applications. Strong sales in Latin America continued into the second quarter as we experienced broad based demand for our products. The pass-through of resin costs was not significant in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. We also experienced $2.9 million lower tooling sales over the prior year mainly impacting the personal care market.

Net sales increased 1% in the first six months of 2016 to $654.7 million compared to $648.5 million in the first six months of the prior year. The Mega Airless acquisition positively impacted net sales by 4% in the first six months of 2016 while changes in currency rates negatively impacted net sales by 4%. Therefore, core sales increased 1% in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. Core sales growth to the beauty and home care markets of 8% and 3%, respectively, more than offset a core sales decline in the personal care market of 5% in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. The growth in the beauty market is mainly driven by increased sales of our sampling and promotion products in Europe and Northeast Asia along with stronger sales of our products to the fragrance markets in Europe and Latin America. Tooling and the pass-through of resin costs negatively impacted sales for the first six months of 2016 by $3.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

Segment income in the second quarter of 2016 increased 12% to $30.5 million compared to $27.2 million reported in the same period in the prior year. Profitability continued to increase year over year as volumes were positively impacted in Latin America with broad based demand for our products. Likewise, our product mix also improved and we continue to focus on improving our cost structure with operational and material cost savings initiatives.

Segment income in the first six months of 2016 increased approximately 7% to $54.1 million compared to $50.6 million reported in the same period in the prior year. The increase compared to the prior year is mostly due to improved sales volumes and the mix of products as we realized increased demand for our beauty applications. Segment income was offset by $2.2 million of a purchase accounting adjustment related to the write-up to fair value of the Mega Airless inventory we purchased and subsequently sold during the first quarter. We also continue to focus on operational and material cost savings initiatives.

PHARMA SEGMENT

Operations that sell dispensing systems primarily to the prescription drug, consumer health care and injectables markets form the Pharma segment.



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015

Net Sales	$	191,034	$	183,300	$	374,169	$	361,969
Segment Income		58,597		55,462		111,833		107,463
Segment Income as a percentage of Net Sales		30.7%		30.3%		29.9%		29.7%

Net sales for the Pharma segment increased by 4% in the second quarter of 2016 to $191.0 million compared to $183.3 million in the second quarter of 2015. Excluding a 1% positive effect of the Mega Airless acquisition, sales increased by 3% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015. Changes in foreign currency rates did not impact total segment sales during the quarter. All three markets reported sales increases during the quarter with core sales to the prescription, consumer health care and injectables markets increasing 1%, 3% and 8%, respectively. The growth during the second quarter of 2016 was mainly driven by strong sales of our products used on allergic rhinitis treatments as well as increased sales of products to our nasal saline, eye care and injectable customers, which more than offset weaker sales of our products to other markets as we experienced inventory destocking at a few key customers. Tooling sales declined by $3.0 million over the prior year, mainly impacting the prescription market.

Net sales for the first six months of 2016 increased approximately 3% to $374.2 million compared to $362.0 million in the first six months of the prior year. The Mega Airless acquisition positively impacted net sales by 1% in the first six months of 2016 while changes in currency rates negatively impacted net sales by 2%. Therefore, core sales increased 4% in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same six months of 2015. Core sales of our products to the prescription, consumer health care and injectables markets increased 5%, 1% and 6%, respectively, in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. As discussed above, growth in the first six months of 2016 was mainly driven by strong sales of products to our allergic rhinitis, eye care and injectable customers. Tooling sales declined by $5.1 million over the prior year.

Table of Contents

Segment income in the second quarter of 2016 increased 6% to $58.6 million compared to $55.5 million reported in the same period in the prior year. The increase compared to the prior year is due to the additional product sales volumes discussed above along with cost savings initiatives and favorable product mix within the segment.

Segment income in the first six months of 2016 increased approximately 4% to $111.8 million compared to $107.5 million reported in the same period of the prior year. This increase is again due to the additional product sales volumes discussed above along with favorable product mix within the segment. Cost savings initiatives partially offset costs related to an enterprise resource system implementation and the impact of a purchase accounting adjustment of $0.4 million related to the write-up to fair value of the Mega Airless inventory we purchased and subsequently sold during the first quarter.

FOOD + BEVERAGE SEGMENT

Operations that sell dispensing systems primarily to the food and beverage markets form the Food + Beverage segment.



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015

Net Sales	$	88,644	$	91,851	$	173,511	$	173,578
Segment Income		13,593		14,991		22,876		24,041
Segment Income as a percentage of Net Sales		15.3%		16.3%		13.2%		13.9%

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 decreased approximately 3% to $88.6 million compared to $91.9 million in the second quarter of the prior year. Changes in foreign currency rates had a negative impact of 2% on the total segment sales. Therefore, core sales decreased by 1% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015. The pass-through of lower resin costs and lower tooling sales negatively impacted sales in the second quarter of 2016 by $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively, which represents a 2% decrease in the 2016 second quarter sales compared to the same period in 2015. Core sales to the food market increased 6% while core sales to the beverage market decreased 9% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. During the second quarter of 2016, we experienced a decreased in demand from both food and beverage customers in Asia. Sales of our products to the food market increased with strong demand from the dairy and spreads, jelly and honey application fields along with continued growth in the salad dressing and infant formula application fields. For the beverage market, strong sales of products to our bottled water customers in North America and Latin America were offset by softness in the Asian functional drink applications.

Net sales for the first six months of 2016 decreased slightly from $173.6 million to $173.5 million when compared to the first six months of 2015. Changes in foreign currency rates had a negative impact of 3% on the total segment sales. Core sales increased by 3% in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015. Core sales to the food market increased 6% while sales to the beverage market decreased 1% in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year. As discussed above, food sales were driven by strong sales to the infant formula, dairy and spreads, jelly and honey application fields. Sales of our products used on bottled water were strong but were offset by lower sales of our products used on functional drinks. Decreases in resin pass-throughs and lower tooling sales of $3.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, also negatively impacted sales by 4% for the first six months of 2016.

Segment income in the second quarter of 2016 decreased approximately 9% to $13.6 million compared to $15.0 million reported in the same period of the prior year. The increase in sales to the food market and cost savings initiatives were not able to offset the shortfall in the beverage market. Lower demand led to lower operating performance in Asia along with a negative impact due to the mix of products sold during the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Segment income in the first six months of 2016 decreased approximately 5% to $22.9 million compared to $24.0 million reported in the same period of the prior year. As discussed above, lower demand in our Asian region led to lower operating performance and a negative product mix impact. Tooling and resin had little impact on the results.

CORPORATE & OTHER

In addition to our three operating business segments, AptarGroup assigns certain costs to “Corporate & Other,” which is presented separately in Note 14 of the Unaudited Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Corporate & Other primarily includes certain professional fees, compensation and information system costs which are not allocated directly to our operating segments. Corporate & Other expense increased to $9.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $3.8 million in the second quarter of the prior year due to a favorable $7.4 million change in accounting principle related to our inventory valuation method in the prior year. Excluding the impact of this change in accounting principle, expenses for the second quarter 2016 would be $1.6 million lower than second quarter 2015 as a result of higher professional fees and other expenses associated with our legal entity reorganization project in the prior year.

Table of Contents

Corporate & Other expense in the first six months of 2016 increased to $27.8 million compared to $15.0 million reported in the same period of the prior year. Excluding the impact of the change in inventory valuation accounting principle of $7.4 million discussed above, Corporate & Other expense would have increased $5.4 million in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015. This increase is due to $5.6 million of transaction costs related to the Mega Airless acquisition reported in the first quarter of 2016.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

Because of our international presence, movements in exchange rates may have a significant impact on the translation of the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries. Our primary foreign exchange exposure is to the Euro, but we also have foreign exchange exposure to the Chinese Yuan, Brazilian Real, Mexican Peso, Swiss Franc and other Asian, European and South American currencies. A strengthening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has a dilutive translation effect on our financial statements. Conversely, a weakening U.S. dollar has an additive effect. In some cases, we sell products denominated in a currency different from the currency in which the related costs are incurred. We manage our exposures to foreign exchange principally with forward exchange contracts to economically hedge recorded transactions and firm purchase and sales commitments denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in exchange rates on such inter-country sales could materially impact our results of operations. As sales denominated in British Pounds represent less than 1% of our total sales in 2016, we don’t anticipate that the United Kingdom’s vote to withdraw from the European Union will have a material foreign currency translation impact on our operations.

QUARTERLY TRENDS

Our results of operations in the last quarter of the year typically are negatively impacted by customer plant shutdowns in December. In the future, our results of operations in a quarterly period could be impacted by factors such as the seasonality of certain products within our segments, changes in foreign currency rates, changes in product mix, changes in material costs, changes in growth rates in the markets to which our products are sold, recognition of equity based compensation expense for retirement eligible employees in the period of grant and changes in general economic conditions in any of the countries in which we do business.

We generally incur higher stock option expense in the first quarter compared with the rest of the fiscal year. Our stock option expense on a pre-tax basis (in $ millions) for the year 2016 compared to 2015 is as follows:


	2016		2015
First Quarter	$	8.9	$	8.8
Second Quarter		3.8		3.2
Third Quarter (estimated for 2016)		3.5		3.0
Fourth Quarter (estimated for 2016)		3.1		2.9
	$	19.3	$	17.9

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations and our revolving credit facility. In the first six months of 2016, our operations provided approximately $86.1 million in cash flow compared to $140.2 million for the same period a year ago. In both periods, cash flow from operations was primarily derived from earnings before depreciation and amortization. The decrease in cash provided by operations is primarily attributable to an increase in working capital requirements to support our business along with the timing of our $10 million contribution to our domestic defined benefit plans.

We used $231.2 million in cash for investing activities during the first six months of 2016 compared to $125.9 million during the same period a year ago. The increase is due primarily to the Mega Airless acquisition of $203.0 million, net of cash received. Our 2016 estimated cash outlays for capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $155 million, including $10 million related to the expansion of our elastomer component capacity in North America, but could vary due to changes in exchange rates as well as the timing of capital projects.

Proceeds from financing activities were $14.7 million in the first six months of 2016 compared to a use of $5.9 million during the same period a year ago. For 2016, proceeds from notes payable were used to partially finance the acquisition of Mega Airless and to repurchase and retire common stock. Proceeds from stock option exercises were approximately the same amount as the cash paid to shareholders in dividends during 2016.

Table of Contents

Cash and equivalents decreased to $361.7 million at June 30, 2016 from $489.9 million at December 31, 2015 mainly due to the remaining cash portion of the Mega Airless acquisition price not covered by debt financing. Total short and long-term interest bearing debt increased in the first six months of 2016 to $890.6 million from $817.8 million at December 31, 2015 also primarily due to financing the Mega Airless acquisition. The ratio of our Net Debt (interest bearing debt less cash and cash equivalents) to Net Capital (stockholder’s equity plus Net Debt) was 29.6% at June 30, 2016 compared to 20.6% at December 31, 2015.

The Company maintains a revolving credit facility that provides for unsecured financing of up to $300 million. Each borrowing under this credit facility will bear interest at rates based on LIBOR, prime rates or other similar rates, in each case plus an applicable margin. A facility fee on the total amount of the facility is also payable quarterly, regardless of usage. The applicable margins for borrowings under the credit facility and the facility fee percentage may change from time to time depending on changes in AptarGroup’s consolidated leverage ratio. At June 30, 2016, we had an outstanding balance of $55 million under the credit facility. There was no outstanding balance at December 31, 2015. We incurred approximately $370 thousand and $701 thousand in interest and fees related to this credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Our revolving credit facility and corporate long-term obligations require us to satisfy certain financial and other covenants including:


	Requirement	Level at June 30, 2016
Consolidated Leverage Ratio _(a)	Maximum of 3.50 to 1.00	1.25 to 1.00
Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio _(a)	Minimum of 3.00 to 1.00	13.02 to 1.00

(a)

Definitions of ratios are included as part of the revolving credit facility agreement and the private placement agreements.

Based upon the above consolidated leverage ratio covenant, we have the ability to borrow approximately an additional $1.1 billion before the 3.50 to 1.00 maximum ratio requirement is exceeded.

Our foreign operations have historically met cash requirements with the use of internally generated cash or borrowings. These foreign subsidiaries have financing arrangements with several foreign banks to fund operations located outside the U.S., but the majority of these arrangements are uncommitted. Cash generated by foreign operations has generally been reinvested locally. The majority of our $361.7 million in cash and equivalents is located outside of the U.S. We manage our global cash requirements considering (i) available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business, (ii) the geographic location of our liquidity needs, and (iii) the cost to access international cash balances. The repatriation of non-U.S. cash balances from certain subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences as we may be required to pay income tax on those funds. Historically, the tax consequences associated with repatriating current year earnings to the U.S. has been between 5% and 10% of the repatriated amount.

We believe we are in a strong financial position and have the financial resources to meet our business requirements in the foreseeable future. We have historically used cash flow from operations and our revolving credit facility as our primary sources of liquidity. Our primary uses of liquidity are to invest in equipment and facilities that are necessary to support our growth and to make acquisitions that will contribute to the achievement of our strategic objectives. Other uses of liquidity include paying dividends to shareholders and repurchasing shares of our common stock. In the event that customer demand would decrease significantly for a prolonged period of time and negatively impact cash flow from operations, we would have the ability to restrict and significantly reduce capital expenditure levels, as well as evaluate our acquisition strategy and dividend and share repurchase programs. A prolonged and significant reduction in capital expenditure levels could increase future repairs and maintenance costs as well as have a negative impact on operating margins if we were unable to invest in new innovative products.

On July 13, 2016, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share payable on August 17, 2016 to stockholders of record as of July 27, 2016.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We lease certain warehouse, plant and office facilities as well as certain equipment under noncancelable operating leases expiring at various dates through the year 2027. Most of the operating leases contain renewal options and certain equipment leases include options to purchase during or at the end of the lease term. Other than operating lease obligations, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

We have reviewed the recently issued accounting standards updates to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification that have future effective dates. As discussed in Note 1 of the Unaudited Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, no Standards that are considered to have a material impact on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were effective for the first half of 2016.

In July 2015, the FASB issued new guidance for simplifying the measurement of inventory. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company does not believe that this new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that generally requires companies to measure investments in other entities, except those accounted for under the equity method, at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that eliminates the requirement that an investor retrospectively apply equity method accounting when an investment that it had accounted for by another method initially qualifies for the equity method. The guidance requires that an equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that changes the accounting for certain aspects of share-based payments to employees. The guidance requires the recognition of the income tax effects of awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, thus eliminating additional paid in capital pools. The guidance also allows for the employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting. In addition, the guidance allows for a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance that changes the accounting for measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. The guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information when recording credit loss estimates. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

OUTLOOK

Diversity of our business continues to play an important role by providing stable, long-term growth for our company. Looking to the third quarter, while we expect continued weakness in the Asian beverage market, we are expecting growth in other markets and our level of project dialog with our customers across each segment remains high. We’re also very excited to be investing in our elastomer capacity for the U.S. market and look forward to that capacity being validated by customers in the first half of 2017.

Table of Contents

AptarGroup expects earnings per share for the third quarter, excluding any potential impacts of the timing of costs incurred and the related insurance reimbursements associated with the Aptar Annecy facility fire, to be in the range of $0.79 to $0.84 per share compared to $0.83 per share reported in the prior year. Assuming a comparable foreign currency exchange rate environment, comparable earnings per share for the prior year were approximately $0.81.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

A significant number of our operations are located outside of the United States. Because of this, movements in exchange rates may have a significant impact on the translation of the financial condition and results of operations of our entities. Our primary foreign exchange exposure is to the Euro, but we also have foreign exchange exposure to the Chinese Yuan, Brazilian Real, Mexican Peso and Swiss Franc, among other Asian, European, and South American currencies. A strengthening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has a dilutive translation effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, a weakening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has an additive translation effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, in some cases, we sell products denominated in a currency different from the currency in which the related costs are incurred. Any changes in exchange rates on such inter-country sales may impact our results of operations.

We manage our exposures to foreign exchange principally with forward exchange contracts to hedge certain firm purchase and sales commitments and intercompany cash transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

The table below provides information as of June 30, 2016 about our forward currency exchange contracts. The majority of the contracts expire before the end of the third quarter of 2016.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Company, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2016. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company implemented enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) systems at one operating facility. Consequently, the control environments have been modified at these locations to incorporate the controls contained within the new ERP system. The Company is also in the process of reviewing the internal control structure of Mega Airless and, if necessary, will make appropriate changes as we incorporate our controls and procedures into this recently acquired business. Other than these items, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2016 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

The employees of Aptargroup UK Holdings Limited (French Branch) and Aptar France S.A.S., our subsidiaries, are eligible to participate in the FCP Aptar Savings Plan (the “Plan”). All eligible participants are located outside of the United States.
