Industrial Automation intersegment sales for the second quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $177 million and $163 million, respectively, and year-to-date, $298 million and $273 million. The increase in corporate and other for both the second quarter and year-to-date reflects higher incentive stock compensation expense due to the overlap of two performance shares plans.
