All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Sales to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and subsidiaries amounted to approximately 10.9%, 10.6% and 11.2% of consolidated net sales in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, substantially across all segments.

(2)
Operating income (loss) by segment is net sales less cost of products sold and selling, general & administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. Operating income by geographic area is net sales less cost of products sold, SG&A expenses, impairment charges and restructuring costs. Certain headquarters expenses of an operational nature are allocated to business segments and geographic areas primarily on a net sales basis. Depreciation and amortization is allocated to the segments on a percentage of sales basis, and the allocated depreciation and amortization is included in segment operating income.
    
Depreciation and amortization excludes $1.5 million, $2.3 million and $3.8 million included in discontinued operations for 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

(3)
Corporate capital expenditures includes capital expenditures related to the SAP and other software implementations and corporate property, plant and equipment. Capital expenditures exclude $1.2 million, $1.7 million and $1.4 million associated with discontinued operations in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

(4)
Corporate assets primarily include goodwill, capitalized software, cash, deferred tax assets and assets held for sale.

(5)
Geographic sales information is based on the region from which the products are shipped and invoiced. Long-lived assets by geography are not presented because it is impracticable to do so.
