Basis Of Presentation	1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Tredegar Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Tredegar," "we," "us" or "our") contain all adjustments necessary to state fairly, in all material respects, Tredegar's consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2013, the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated changes in shareholders' equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. All such adjustments, unless otherwise detailed in the notes to the consolidated interim financial statements, are deemed to be of a normal, recurring nature. The financial position data as of December 31, 2012 that is included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 ("2012 Form 10-K") but does not include all disclosures required by United States generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2012 Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Acquisitions [Abstract]

Acquisitions

2. On October 1, 2012, The William L. Bonnell Company, Inc. acquired 100% ownership of AACOA, Inc. ("AACOA"). AACOA operates production facilities in Elkhart, Indiana and Niles, Michigan. Its primary markets include consumer durables, machinery and equipment and transportation. The acquisition added fabrication capabilities to Aluminum Extrusions' current array of products and services, and provided AACOA with large press capabilities and enhanced geographic sales coverage in a variety of end-use markets.

In the second quarter of 2013, all post-closing adjustments to the purchase price were resolved. Adjustments to the purchase price were made retrospectively as if the accounting had been completed on the acquisition date. Upon completing these post-closing adjustments, which were primarily related to the resolution of contractual obligations related to income taxes, the total purchase price (net of cash acquired) was $54.1 million, which includes $0.6 million that was received from the seller during the third quarter of 2013. The purchase price was funded using financing secured from our existing $350 million revolving credit facility. Based upon management's valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets (net of cash) acquired and liabilities assumed, the estimated purchase price allocation is as follows:


(In Thousands)
Accounts receivable	$	12,477
Inventories		4,708
Property, plant & equipment		15,116
Identifiable intangible assets:
Customer relationships		4,800
Trade names		4,800
Proprietary technology		3,400
Noncompete agreements		1,600
Other assets (current & noncurrent)		42
Trade payables & accrued expenses		(6,574	)
Total identifiable net assets		40,369
Purchase price, net of cash received		54,065
Goodwill	$	13,696

The goodwill and other intangible asset balances associated with this acquisition are expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Intangible assets acquired in the purchase of AACOA are being amortized over the following periods:


Identifiable Intangible Asset	Useful Life (Yrs)
Customer relationships	10
Proprietary technology	6-10
Trade names	Indefinite
Noncompete agreements	2

The financial position and results of operations for AACOA have been consolidated with Tredegar subsequent to October 1, 2012. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, the consolidated results of operations included sales of $22.7 million and $67.4 million, respectively, and net income of $0.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively, related to AACOA. The following unaudited supplemental pro forma data presents our consolidated revenues and earnings as if the acquisition of AACOA had been consummated as of January 1, 2012. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of our consolidated revenues and earnings if the acquisition and related borrowing had been consummated as of January 1, 2012. Supplemental unaudited pro forma results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 are as follows:


		Three Months		Nine Months
(In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)		Ended September 30, 2012
Sales	$	238,652	$	713,556
Income from continuing operations		15,425		31,662
Earnings per share from continuing operations:
Basic	$	.48	$	.99
Diluted		.48		.98

The supplemental unaudited pro forma amounts reflect the application of the following adjustments in order to present the consolidated results as if the acquisition and related borrowing had occurred on January 1, 2012:

Adjustment for additional depreciation and amortization expense associated with the adjustments to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets associated with purchase accounting;
Additional interest expense and financing fees associated with borrowings from the existing revolving credit facility used to fund the acquisition of AACOA and the elimination of historical interest expense associated with historical borrowings of AACOA that were not assumed by Tredegar;
Adjustments to eliminate transaction-related expenses associated with the October 2012 acquisition of AACOA;
Adjustments for the estimated net income tax benefit associated with the previously described adjustments; and
Adjustments to income tax expense for AACOA as it had previously elected to be treated as an S-Corp for federal income tax purposes.

On October 14, 2011, TAC Holdings, LLC (the "Buyer") and Tredegar Film Products Corporation ("Film Products"), which are indirect and direct, respectively, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Tredegar, entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Terphane Purchase Agreement") with Gaucho Holdings, B.V. (the "Seller"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Vision Capital Partners VII LP ("Vision Capital"). On October 24, 2011, under the terms of the Terphane Purchase Agreement, the Buyer acquired from the Seller 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Terphane Holdings LLC ("Terphane").

As of December 31, 2011, the purchase price allocation was preliminary, subject to adjustments for certain terms and conditions under the Terphane Purchase Agreement. In the first quarter of 2012, all post-closing adjustments to the purchase price were resolved. Adjustments to the purchase price were made retrospectively as if the accounting had been completed on the acquisition date. Upon completing these post-closing adjustments, which were primarily related to working capital transferred, the total purchase price (net of cash acquired) was $182.7 million, $3.3 million of which was paid during the first quarter of 2012. The purchase price was funded using available cash (net of cash received) of approximately $57.7 million and financing of $125 million secured from Tredegar's then-existing revolving credit facility.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

6. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common and potentially dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding, determined as follows:


	Three Months		Nine Months
	Ended September 30		Ended September 30
(In Thousands)	2013	2012	2013	2012
Weighted average shares outstanding used
to compute basic earnings per share	32,201	32,052	32,155	32,038
Incremental dilutive shares attributable to stock
options and restricted stock	457	49	436	160
Shares used to compute diluted earnings
per share	32,658	32,101	32,591	32,198

Incremental shares attributable to stock options and restricted stock are computed using the average market price during the related period. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 average out-of-the-money options to purchase shares were excluded from the calculation of incremental shares attributable to stock options and restricted stock were 60,100 and 40,056, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, average out-of-the-money options to purchase shares were excluded from the calculation of incremental shares attributable to stock options and restricted stock were 1,023,733 and 692,600, respectively.

Investments [Abstract]

Investments

8. In August 2007 and December 2008, we made an aggregate investment of $7.5 million in Intelliject, a privately held specialty pharmaceutical company. Intelliject seeks to set a new standard in drug/device combination pharmaceuticals designed to enable superior treatment outcomes, improved cost effectiveness and intuitive patient administration. Our ownership interest on a fully diluted basis is approximately 20%, and the investment is accounted for under the fair value method. At the time of our initial investment, we elected the fair value option over the equity method of accounting since our investment objectives were similar to those of venture capitalists, which typically do not have controlling financial interests.

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the estimated fair value of our investment (also the carrying value included in "Other assets and deferred charges" in our balance sheet) was $33.8 million and $33.7 million, respectively. The fair value estimates are based upon significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs since there is no secondary market for our ownership interest. Accordingly, until the next round of financing or other significant financial transaction, value estimates will primarily be based on assumptions relating to meeting product development and commercialization milestones, corresponding cash flow projections (projections of sales, costs, expenses, capital expenditures and working capital investment) and discounting of these factors for the high degree of risk. Adjustments to the estimated fair value of our investment will be made in the period during which changes can be quantified.

We recognized an unrealized loss on our investment in Intelliject (included in "Other income (expense), net" in the consolidated statements of income) of $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2013 and a net unrealized gain of $0.1 million in the first nine months of 2013. The unrealized loss in the third quarter of 2013 was primarily related to adjustments in the fair value due to a reassessment of the amount and timing of the projected receipt of royalty and milestone payments from commercial sales of Intelliject's licensed product, which launched in early 2013, and increased development and commercialization expenses related to its pipeline products, partially offset by the impact of the passage of time as anticipated cash flows associated with achieving product development and commercialization milestones are discounted at 55% for their high degree of risk. The net unrealized gain in the first nine months of 2013 was primarily related to adjustments in the fair value for the passage of time as anticipated cash flows associated with achieving product development and commercialization milestones are discounted at 55% for their high degree of risk, offset by adjustments in the fair value due to a reassessment of the amount and timing of projected receipt of royalty and milestone payments from commercial sales of Intelliject's licensed product, which launched in early 2013, and increased development and commercialization expenses related to its pipeline products.

We recognized an unrealized gain on our investment in Intelliject (included in "Other income (expense), net" in the consolidated statements of income) of $2.7 million and $9.0 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, respectively. The unrealized gain in the third quarter of 2012 was primarily related to adjustments in the fair value for the passage of time as anticipated cash flows associated with achieving product development and commercialization milestones are discounted at 55% for their high degree of risk. The unrealized gain in the second quarter of 2012 was primarily attributed to the appreciation of our ownership interest to reflect insights from a new marketing study for its first product, which resulted in a favorable adjustment to the timing and amount of anticipated cash flows from an upcoming product introduction and achieving related milestones. The unrealized gain in the first quarter of 2012 was primarily attributed to the appreciation of our ownership interest after the weighted average cost of capital used to discount cash flows in our valuation of the specialty pharmaceutical company was reduced to reflect the completion of certain process testing and a reassessment of the risk associated with the timing for obtaining final marketing approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its first product.

The fair market valuation of our interest in Intelliject is sensitive to changes in the weighted average cost of capital used to discount cash flow projections for the high degree of risk associated with meeting development and commercialization milestones as anticipated. The weighted average cost of capital used in the fair market valuation of our interest in Intelliject was 55% at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013, the effect of a 500 basis point decrease in the weighted average cost of capital assumption would have further increased the fair value of our interest in Intelliject by approximately $5 million, and a 500 basis point increase in the weighted average cost of capital assumption would have decreased the fair value of our interest by approximately $4 million.

Had we not elected to account for our investment under the fair value method, we would have been required to use the equity method of accounting. The condensed unaudited balance sheets for Intelliject at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and condensed unaudited statements of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, as reported to us by Intelliject, are provided below:

Our investment in the Harbinger Fund had a carrying value (included in "Other assets and deferred charges") of $3.2 million at September 30, 2013, compared with $3.6 million at December 31, 2012. The carrying value at September 30, 2013 reflected Tredegar's cost basis in its investment in the Harbinger Fund, net of total withdrawal proceeds received and unrealized losses.

We recorded an unrealized loss of $0.2 million ($0.1 million after taxes) in the third quarter of 2013 and $1.1 million ($0.7 million after taxes) in the first quarter of 2012 on our investment in the Harbinger Fund (included in "Other income (expense), net" in the consolidated statements of income) as a result of a reduction in the value of our investment that is not expected to be temporary. Withdrawal proceeds were $0.2 million and $0.5 million in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The timing and amount of future installments of withdrawal proceeds, which commenced in August 2010, were not known as of September 30, 2013. Gains on our investment in the Harbinger Fund will be recognized when the amounts expected to be collected from our withdrawal from the investment are known, which will likely be when cash in excess of our remaining carrying value is received. Losses will be recognized when management believes it is probable that future withdrawal proceeds will not exceed the remaining carrying value.

We have investment property in Alleghany and Bath County, Virginia. Our carrying value in this investment property (included in "Other assets and deferred charges" on the consolidated balance sheets) was $5.9 million at September 30, 2013 and $6.9 million at December 31, 2012.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

9. We use derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging margin exposure from fixed-price forward sales contracts in Aluminum Extrusions and currency exchange rate exposures that exist due to specified transactions. When possible, our derivative financial instruments are designated as and qualify as cash flow hedges and are recognized in the balance sheet at fair value. A change in the fair value of derivatives that are highly effective and that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified to earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. Such gains and losses are reported on the same line as the underlying hedged item. Any hedge ineffectiveness (which represents the amount by which the changes in the fair value of the derivative exceed the variability in the cash flows of the forecasted transaction) is recorded in current period earnings. The amount of gains and losses recognized for hedge ineffectiveness was not material to the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 and 2012.

The fair value of derivative instruments recorded on the consolidated balance sheets are based upon Level 2 inputs within the corresponding commodity or foreign currency markets. If individual derivative instruments with the same counterparty can be settled on a net basis, we record the corresponding derivative fair values as a net asset or net liability.

In the normal course of business, we enter into fixed-price forward sales contracts with certain customers for the future sale of fixed quantities of aluminum extrusions at scheduled intervals. In order to hedge our margin exposure created from the fixing of future sales prices relative to volatile raw material (aluminum) costs, we enter into a combination of forward purchase commitments and futures contracts to acquire or hedge aluminum, based on the scheduled purchases for the firm sales commitments. The fixed-price firm sales commitments and related hedging instruments generally have durations of not more than 12 months, and the notional amount of aluminum futures contracts that hedged future purchases of aluminum to meet fixed-price forward sales contract obligations was $4.6 million (4.7 million pounds of aluminum) at September 30, 2013 and $6.2 million (6.7 million pounds of aluminum) at December 31, 2012.

The table below summarizes the location and gross amounts of aluminum futures contract fair values in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:


	September 30, 2013				December 31, 2012
	Balance Sheet		Fair		Balance Sheet	Fair
(In Thousands)	Account	Value			Account	Value
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
Asset derivatives:					Prepaid expenses
Aluminum futures contracts	Accrued expenses	$	5		and other	$	226
Liability derivatives:					Prepaid expense
Aluminum futures contracts	Accrued expenses	$	223		and other	$	88
Net asset (liability)		$	(218	)		$	138

In the event that the counterparty to an aluminum fixed-price forward sales contract chooses to not take delivery of its aluminum extrusions, the customer is contractually obligated to compensate us for any losses on the related aluminum futures and/or forward purchase contracts through the date of cancellation. The offsetting asset and liability positions for derivatives not designated as hedging instruments (none at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012) are associated with the unwinding of aluminum futures contracts that relate to such cancellations.

We have future fixed Euro-denominated contractual payments for equipment being purchased as part of our multi-year capacity expansion project at our film products manufacturing facility in Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Brazil. We are using fixed rate Euro forward contracts with various settlement dates through November 2013 to hedge exchange rate exposure on these obligations. We had fixed rate forward contracts with outstanding notional amounts of €2.2 million and €9.9 million as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

The table below summarizes the location and gross amounts of foreign currency forward contract fair values in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:


	September 30, 2013			December 31, 2012
	Balance Sheet		Fair	Balance Sheet	Fair
(In Thousands)	Account	Value		Account	Value
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
Asset derivatives:	Prepaid expenses			Prepaid expenses
Foreign currency forward contracts	and other	$	252	and other	$	948
Net asset (liability)		$	252		$	948

These derivative contracts involve elements of market risk that are not reflected on our consolidated balance sheet, including the risk of dealing with counterparties and their ability to meet the terms of the contracts. The counterparties to our forward purchase commitments are major aluminum brokers and suppliers, and the counterparties to our aluminum futures contracts are major financial institutions. Fixed-price forward sales contracts are only made available to our best and most credit-worthy customers. The counterparties to our foreign currency futures and zero-cost collar contracts are major financial institutions.

The effect on net income and other comprehensive income (loss) of derivative instruments classified as cash flow hedges and described in the previous paragraphs for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 is summarized in the table below:


(In Thousands)		Cash Flow Derivative Hedges
		Aluminum Futures						Foreign Currency
		Contracts						Forwards
		Three Months Ended September 30,

As of September 30, 2013, we expect $0.1 million of unrealized after-tax losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net gains or losses realized on previously unrealized net gains or losses from hedges that had been discontinued were not material.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

11.

Our primary business segments are Film Products and Aluminum Extrusions. In February 2010, we started reporting an additional segment, Other, comprised of the start-up operations of Bright View Technologies Corporation ("Bright View") and Falling Springs. Effective January 1, 2012, the operations and results of Bright View were incorporated into Film Products to leverage research and development efforts and accelerate new product development. As discussed in Note 3, Falling Springs was divested in the fourth quarter of 2012. All historical results for this business have been reflected as discontinued operations. With the sale of Falling Springs, there is no longer an Other segment to report.

Information by business segment is reported below. There are no accounting transactions between segments and no allocations to segments. Net sales (sales less freight) and operating profit from ongoing operations are the measures of sales and operating profit used by the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing performance.

The following table presents net sales and operating profit by segment for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

Income Taxes [Abstract]

Income Taxes

12. The effective tax rate for income from continuing operations in the first nine months of 2013 was 31.5% compared to 27.8% in the first nine months of 2012. The significant differences between the U.S. federal statutory rate and the effective income tax rate for continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:


	Percent of Income
	Before Income Taxes
Nine Months Ended September 30	2013		2012
Income taxexpense at federal statutory rate	35.0		35.0
State taxes, net of federal income taxbenefit	2.2		1.4

Unremitted earnings from foreign operations	1.1		.7

The Brazilian federal statutory income tax rate is a composite of 34.0% (25.0% of income tax and 9.0% of social contribution on income). Terphane's manufacturing facility in Brazil is the beneficiary of certain income tax incentives that allow for a reduction in the statutory Brazilian federal income tax rate levied on the operating profit of its products. These incentives produce a current effective tax rate of 15.25% for Terphane Ltda. (6.25% of income tax and 9.0% social contribution on income). The current incentives will expire at the end of 2014, but we anticipate that we will qualify for additional incentives that will extend beyond 2014. The benefit from tax incentives was $1.9 million (6 cents per share) and $3.8 million (12 cents per share) in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Income taxes include the recognition of an additional valuation allowance of $0.4 million in the first nine months of 2013 and $1.3 million for the first nine months of 2012 related to expected limitations on the utilization of assumed capital losses on certain investments recognized in previous years.

Tredegar and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S., various states and jurisdictions outside the U.S. Except for refund claims and amended returns, the Internal Revenue Service has provided written confirmation that they do not plan to make any additional changes to our U.S. consolidated tax returns for the years prior to 2010, although the federal statute of limitations was extended for the tax years 2006-2009 through December 31, 2013. With few exceptions, Tredegar and its subsidiaries are no longer subject to state or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2009.

Contingencies [Abstract]
Contingencies	13. In 2011, we were notified by U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("U.S. Customs") that certain film products exported by Terphane to the U.S. since November 6, 2008 could be subject to duties associated with an antidumping duty order on imported PET films from Brazil. We contested the applicability of these antidumping duties to the films exported by Terphane, and we filed a request with the U.S. Department of Commerce ("Commerce") for clarification about whether the film products at issue are within the scope of the antidumping duty order. On January 8, 2013, Commerce issued a scope ruling confirming that the films are not subject to the order, provided that Terphane can establish to the satisfaction of U.S. Customs that the performance enhancing layer on those films is greater than 0.00001 inches thick. The films at issue are manufactured to specifications that exceed that threshold. On February 6, 2013, certain U.S. producers of PET film filed a summons with the U.S. Court of International Trade to appeal the scope ruling from Commerce. If U.S. Customs ultimately were to require the collection of antidumping duties because Commerce's scope ruling was overturned on appeal, or otherwise, indemnifications for related liabilities are specifically provided for under the Terphane Purchase Agreement.

New Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]
New Accounting Pronouncements	14. In January 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance clarifying the scope of disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The scope of the balance sheet offsetting disclosures, contained in the new guidance, is limited to recognized derivative instruments, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and lending transactions. The balance sheet offsetting disclosures require the presentation of gross and net information about transactions that are (1) offset in the financial statements or (2) subject to master netting arrangements, regardless of whether the transactions are actually offset in the statement of position. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after January 1, 2013. We have complied with the requirements of this FASB accounting standard in 2013. In February 2013, the FASB issued updated guidance for reporting of amounts reclassified out of the various components of accumulated other comprehensive income. The revised standard requires, among other things, that an entity present, either parenthetically on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. The revised standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2012. We have complied with the requirements of this FASB accounting standard in 2013. In February 2013, the FASB issued updated guidance to address the recognition, measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount under the arrangement is fixed at the reporting date. Under the new guidance, an entity would measure its obligation from a joint and several liability arrangement as the sum of the amount the entity agreed with its co-obligors that it will pay, and any additional amount the entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early application is permitted, and we do not expect the guidance to impact us. In March 2013, the FASB issued updated guidance related to foreign currency matters. The updated guidance attempts to resolve the diversity in practice about the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity. In addition, the amended guidance attempts to resolve the diversity in practice for the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages involving a foreign entity. The guidance is effective for the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2013, and we do expect the guidance to impact us. In July 2013, the FASB issued new guidance regarding the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The new guidance requires an unrecognized tax benefit be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, unless certain exceptions are met. The amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. We are still assessing the applicability of this guidance in future periods.
