Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is obligated under various non-cancelable operating leases for equipment and facilities, some of which contain renewal options. At December 31, 2015, future minimum lease commitments under non-cancelable operating leases were approximately $23.7 million with required payments of $9.4 million in 2016, $6.8 million in 2017, $3.4 million in 2018, $2.2 million in 2019, $1.0 million in 2020, and $0.9 million thereafter. The Company recorded $11.0 million, $11.8 million and $10.9 million of rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
The Company is involved in environmental remedial investigations and actions at certain locations where the Company has been designated a potentially liable party. The Company is also from time to time involved in various other loss contingencies, including tax and legal contingencies that arise during the normal course of business. The Company accrues for a loss contingency when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. Accruals for estimated losses from environmental remediation obligations are recognized no later than the completion of a remediation feasibility study. The accruals are adjusted as further information becomes available or circumstances change. Environmental costs have not been material at the Company’s sites. At this time, the Company believes that the results of any such contingencies, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. However, the outcome of any litigation cannot be predicted with certainty. An unfavorable resolution of one or more pending matters could have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition in the future.
