Segment Sales – Segment sales are attributed to individual segments based on the geographic source of the billing for such customer sales. Transfers between geographic areas include finished products manufactured in foreign countries which are then transferred to the United States and Europe for sale; finished goods manufactured in the United States which are transferred to Europe and Asia for sale; and semi-finished components manufactured in the United States which are sold to Asia for further processing. Income (loss) from operations represents net sales less operating costs and expenses. Recent Acquisitions – During 2013, the acquisition of TRP contributed revenues of $66.1 million and income from operations of $10.9 million to the Company’s Asia operating segment. During 2013, the acquisition of Array contributed revenues of $2.1 million and a loss from operations of $0.9 million to the Company’s North America operating segment. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Fibreco and Bel Power Europe contributed combined revenues of $10.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, and combined operating income of $1.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively, to the Company’s Europe operating segment. The following items are included in the income from operations presented above: Restructuring Charges – During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred $1.4 million in severance costs related to continued restructuring efforts ($1.0 million in the Company’s North America operating segment, $0.2 million in the Company’s Asia operating segment and $0.2 million in the Company’s Europe operating segment). During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company incurred $5.2 million in restructuring costs related to the 2012 Restructuring Program. Of this amount, $4.5 million related to the Company’s North America operating segment, $0.6 million related to its Asia operating segment and $0.1 million related to the Company’s Europe operating segment. The amount incurred in North America primarily related to severance costs and impairment charges on property, plant and equipment related to the closure of its Vinita, Oklahoma manufacturing facility. During 2011, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $0.3 million related to severance costs associated with the reorganization of its Cinch operations in the U.K. Litigation Charges – During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded $3.5 million of litigation charges related to the SynQor and Halo lawsuits. These charges impacted income from operations primarily within the Company’s Asia reportable operating segment. Loss on Disposal of Property, Plant and Equipment – During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a $0.3 million loss on disposal of assets in its North America operating segment related to the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy at its Jersey City, New Jersey and Inwood, New York facilities. This was partially offset by a $0.2 million pre-tax gain recorded in the Company’s Asia operating segment from the sale of a building in Macao.
