The allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2013, included a provision of $27.0 million as a result of the October 2013 bankruptcy filing of a metal food and household products packaging segment customer. On February 6, 2014, the customer’s second lien lenders (lenders) were selected as the successful bidder for the customer’s assets and such selection was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court on February 12, 2014. The lenders acquired the customer’s assets on February 28, 2014, and as a result, the company fully wrote off the accounts receivable reserved for at December 31, 2013. The company also recorded various short-term and long-term receivables in conjunction with the lenders’ acquisition.

The company has several regional uncommitted accounts receivable factoring programs with various financial institutions for certain accounts receivable of the company. The programs are accounted for as true sales of the accounts receivable, without recourse to Ball, and had combined limits of approximately $236 million at June 30, 2014. A total of $183.3 million and $137.5 million were sold under these programs as of June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively. Latapack-Ball also has non-recourse uncommitted accounts receivable factoring programs with a combined limit of approximately $18 million at June 30, 2014. There were no accounts receivable sold as of June 30, 2014, and $6.0 million were sold as of December 31, 2013.
