This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Crown Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") on April 6, 2018 (the "Original 8-K"). We amended the Original 8-K to include the historical financial statements of Signode Industrial Group Holdings (Bermuda) Ltd. (“Signode”), which was acquired by the Company on April 3, 2018, and the pro forma financial information required by Item 9.01 of Form 8-K. This Amendment No. 2 on Form 8-K further amends, and should be read together with, the Original 8-K and the Amendment No. 1, principally to include additional pro forma financial information for the nine months ended September
30, 2018 and the historical financial statements of Signode for the three months ended March 30, 2018 and 2017, which were not required to be included in the Original 8-K or Amendment No. 1. Additionally, the historical financial statements of Signode for the year ended December 31, 2017 were included in Amendment No. 1; however, have been amended and included in this Amendment No.2 to include condensed combining financial information required to comply with the objectives of disclosure requirements under Rule 3-10(g) of Regulation S-X.
