Allocation of Goodwill to Reportable Segments Our management views goodwill as a corporate asset, so we do not allocate our goodwill balance to the reportable segments. However, we are required to allocate goodwill to each reporting unit to perform our annual impairment review of goodwill, which we do during the fourth quarter of the year. See Note 7, “Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets,” for the allocation of goodwill, the changes in goodwill balances in the year ended December 31, 2011 by our segment reporting structure, and the details of our annual goodwill impairment review.

New Segment Structure On November 3, 2011, we announced the expected establishment of new business units for our segment reporting structure. The new segment reporting structure will consist of three global business units. This new structure is expected to be implemented in 2012 and will replace our existing seven business unit structure and Diversey’s legacy four region-based structure. The new segment reporting structure will include the following: Food & Beverage — This new segment combines our legacy Food Packaging and Food Solutions businesses with Diversey’s food & beverage applications. Institutional & Laundry — This segment will consist of Diversey’s building care, laundry and infection control solutions for building service contractors/facility management, retail, food service, hospitality and health care sectors. Protective Packaging — This segment will combine our legacy Protective Packaging, Shrink Packaging and Specialty Materials businesses to provide customers with a broad portfolio of protective packaging systems across a range of applications and industries. There will also be an “Other” category, which will include our legacy Medical Applications business and New Ventures. Until the new organization is implemented, we will continue to report our segment results using the following segment structure: Food Packaging, Food Solutions, Protective Packaging, Diversey, and an Other category. Additionally, there will be no immediate changes in how we manage our business with our customers, including the products, solutions and services we provide, however, our businesses will pursue revenue synergy opportunities where available.
