(a)

Certain items are items of expense and income that management does not consider representative of the Company’s fundamental on-going segment results and they are, therefore, excluded from Segment EBIT. Certain items, pre-tax, for the three months ended December 31, 2016 included charges of less than $1 million. Certain items, pre-tax, for the three months ended December 31, 2015 included charges of $48 million related to global restructuring activities, $8 million related to foreign currency loss on the devaluation of the Argentine peso, and $2 million related to legal and environmental matters and reserves.

 

(b)

Unallocated corporate costs are costs that are not controlled by the segments and primarily benefit corporate interests.

 

(c)

General unallocated income (expense) consists of gains (losses) arising from foreign currency transactions, net of other foreign currency risk management activities, the impact of accounting for certain inventory on a LIFO basis, the profit or loss related to the corporate adjustment for unearned revenue, and the impact of including the full operating results of an equity affiliate in Purification Solutions Segment EBIT.

 

(d)

Equity in earnings of affiliated companies, net of tax, is included in Segment EBIT and is removed in Unallocated and other to reconcile to income (loss) from operations before taxes and equity in earnings from affiliated companies.
