Reconciliation from Income from Operations to Segment Income
The Company views segment income, as defined below, as a principal measure of performance of its operations and for the allocation of resources.  Segment income is defined by the Company as income from operations adjusted to exclude intangibles amortization charges, provisions for asbestos and restructuring and other, the impact of fair value adjustments to inventory acquired in an acquisition, and the timing impact of hedge ineffectiveness.

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and the adjusted effective tax rate are non-GAAP measures and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, diluted earnings per share and effective tax rates determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to evaluate the performance of the Company's ongoing business.

(1)           In the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, the Company recorded charges of $51 million ($38 million net of tax) and $103 million 
               ($76 million net of tax) for intangibles amortization arising from acquisitions, including its acquisition of Signode in the second quarter of 
               2018.  In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, the Company recorded charges of $9 million ($7 million net of tax) and $29 
               million ($21 million net of tax) for intangibles amortization.

(2)           In the second quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a charge of $40 million ($29 million net of tax) in cost of products sold for fair 
               value adjustment related to the sale of inventory acquired in its acquisition of Signode.

(3)           In the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, the Company recorded net restructuring and other charges of $12 million ($10 million 
               net of tax) and $34 million ($31 million net of tax) including $22 million of transaction costs for the nine months in connection with its 
               acquisition of Signode.  In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, the Company recorded restructuring and other charges of $3 
               million ($3 million net of tax) and $23 million ($18 million net of tax) primarily due to the settlement of a litigation matter related to Mivisa 
               that arose prior to its acquisition by Crown in 2014, and $4 million of curtailment gain reported in other pension and postretirement.   

               In the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, the Company recorded gains of $13 million ($11 million net of tax) and $6 million ($5 
               million net of tax) for asset sales and impairments.  In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, the Company recorded charges of 
               $9 million ($9 million net of tax) and $3 million ($4 million net of tax) for asset sales and impairments.

(4)           In the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, the Company recorded benefits of $1 million (less than $1 million net of tax) and 
               charges of $2 million ($2 million net of tax) in cost of products sold related to the timing impact of hedge ineffectiveness caused primarily 
               by volatility in the metal premium component of aluminum prices.

(5)           In the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a charge of $15 million ($10 million net of tax) for net losses arising from its hedge of 
               the U.S. dollar purchase price of its acquisition of Signode.  Also in the first quarter, the Company incurred net charges of $9 million ($7 
               million net of tax) for pre-acquisition interest carrying costs on borrowings to finance the acquisition.  

(6)           In the second quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a charge of $7 million ($5 million net of tax) for the write off of deferred financing 
               fees in connection with the refinancing of its term loan and revolving credit facilities.

(7)           In the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, the Company recorded income tax and noncontrolling interest benefits of $13 million 
               and $47 million related to the items described above.  Also in the third quarter of 2018, the Company recorded charges of $28 million 
               related to taxes on the distribution of foreign earnings, including an adjustment for the impact of the "Tax Cut and Jobs Act".  In the third 
               quarter and first nine months of 2017, the Company recorded income tax benefits of $1 million and $14 million related to the items 
               described above.

(8)          Income tax effects on adjusted net income were calculated using the applicable tax rates of the underlying jurisdictions.
