Litigation

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management evaluates each claim and provides for potential loss when the claim is probable to be paid and reasonably estimable. While adverse decisions in certain of these litigation matters, claims and administrative proceedings could have a material effect on a particular period’s results of operations, subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities, management believes that any future accruals with respect to these currently known contingencies would not have a material effect on the financial condition, liquidity or cash flows of the Company. There are no amounts required to be reflected in these consolidated financial statements related to contingencies for the periods presented and the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

During 2017, the Company reached a negotiated settlement against a competing packaging provider related to a patent infringement dispute. The settlement of $10.7 million is reflected in Other operating expense (income), net.

Leases

Certain office and warehouse facilities, transportation vehicles and data processing equipment are leased. Total rental expense relating to these leases was approximately $1.0 million, $0.7 million, $1.6 million and $1.4 million for the Successor period, Predecessor period, and years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Minimum lease payments required under non-cancelable operating leases at December 31, 2019, with terms in excess of one year for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

Environmental Matters

The Company’s operations are subject to extensive and changing U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as the laws of other countries that establish health and environmental quality standards. These standards, among others, relate to air and water pollutants and the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes. The Company is exposed to potential liability for personal injury or property damage caused by any release, spill, exposure or other accident involving such pollutants, substances or wastes. There are no amounts required to be reflected in these consolidated financial statements related to environmental contingencies.

Management believes the Company is in compliance, in all material respects, with environmental laws and regulations and maintains insurance coverage to mitigate exposure to environmental liabilities. Management does not believe any environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
