Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT INFORMATION SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has four operating segments that are organized primarily by product. They generally have overlapping geographical presence, customer bases, distribution channels, and regulatory oversight with the exception of Wellspect Healthcare, which has a more discrete market and regulatory environment specific to the medical device industry. These operating segments, which also form the Company’s reportable segments, are identified in accordance with how the Company’s CODM regularly reviews financial results and uses this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and allocate resources.

The Company evaluates performance of the segments based on net sales and adjusted operating income. Segment adjusted operating income is defined as operating income before income taxes and before certain corporate headquarters unallocated costs, goodwill and intangible asset impairments, restructuring and other costs, interest expense, net, other (income) expense, net, amortization of intangible assets, and depreciation resulting from the fair value step-up of property, plant, and equipment from business combinations. Asset and other balance sheet information is not reported to the CODM.

The Company’s segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:
