1 Net income from continuing operations, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations and return on average capital decreased year-over-year primarily due to pension settlement
charges of $616 million (after-tax) or $2.31 per diluted share recorded in conjunction with the transfer of certain U.S. and Canadian pension benefit obligations and assets to several highly rated
insurance companies; as well as a net tax charge of $151 million or $0.57 per diluted share associated with the funding of the Pittsburgh Corning asbestos settlement trust.
2 Includes an after tax gain of $267 million or $1.01 per diluted share resulting from the sale of our flat glass business in 2016.
3 Adjusted amounts in 2016, 2015 and 2014 exclude after tax net charges of $3.71, $0.54 and $0.87, respectively, which are included in reported earnings per diluted share. For detailed
information regarding these adjustments, see the Regulation G Reconciliation in Item 7 of the Form 10-K. Adjusted amounts in 2013 exclude per diluted share amounts of $0.25 for business
restructuring; $0.22 for environmental remediation; $0.08 for transaction-related costs; and $0.04 for legacy pension settlement charges. The adjusted amounts are reduced by $0.03 for the
retroactive benefit of a U.S. tax law change. Adjusted amounts in 2012 exclude per diluted share amounts of $0.45 for business restructuring; $0.32 for environmental remediation; and $0.02
for transaction-related costs.
4 On April 16, 2015, the PPG Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of the company's common stock. PPG common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on June 15, 2015.
All historical per share and share data give retroactive effect to the 2-for-1 stock split.
5 Operating cash flows from continuing operations decreased year-over-year primarily due to the Company fully satisfying its funding obligation to the Pittsburgh Corning asbestos settlement
trust of approximately $800 million (pre-tax) or approximately $630 million (after-tax).
