Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS | GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS In the first quarter of 2015 the Company revised its reportable segments in connection with the realignment of its portfolio. Specifically, the Company integrated the five existing business divisions into three global divisions, no longer focusing on international as a separate reportable segment but managing each business globally. The change in reportable segments resulted in the Company's requirement to reallocate existing goodwill to the new reportable segments based on the relative fair value of the Company's four underlying reporting units. With the reportable segments now being managed at a global level, goodwill previously assigned to the EMEA, LAPAC, and Private Label reporting units was reallocated to the new global reporting units. On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the separation of its spine business, which also represented a global reporting unit. See Note 2 - Discontinued Operations for additional information. Following the separation, the Company has three remaining underlying reporting units. The Company estimated the fair value of the reporting units using a discounted cash flow model, which incorporates significant estimates and assumptions made by management which, by their nature, are characterized by uncertainty. Inputs used to fair value the Company's reporting units are considered inputs of the fair value hierarchy. For Level 3 measurements, significant increases or decreases in long-term growth rates or discount rates in isolation or in combination could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. The key assumptions impacting the valuation included the following:
• | The reporting unit's financial projections, which are based on management's assessment of regional and macroeconomic variables, industry trends and market opportunities, and the Company's strategic objectives and future growth plans.
• | The projected terminal value for the reporting unit, which represents the present value of projected cash flows beyond the last period in the discounted cash flow analysis. The terminal value reflects the Company's assumptions related to long-term growth rates and profitability, which are based on several factors, including local and macroeconomic variables, market opportunities, and future growth plans.
• | The discount rate used to measure the present value of the projected future cash flows is set using a weighted-average cost of capital method that considers market and industry data as well as the Company's specific risk factors that are likely to be considered by a market participant. The weighted-average cost of capital is the Company's estimate of the overall after-tax rate of return required by equity and debt holders of a business enterprise.
Based on the Company's fair value calculations given the excess of the Specialty Surgical Solutions Instruments, Specialty Surgical Solutions Neurosurgery, and Orthopedics and Tissue Technologies estimated fair value over their carrying value after the reallocation of goodwill, management concluded that any future goodwill impairment is not likely. Refer to Note 13 - Segment and Geographic Information for more information on the change in reportable segments. Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were as follows:

(1) | At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, all other included in-process research and development ("IPR&D") of $1.4 million in both periods, which was indefinite-lived.
(2) | In August 2015, the Company reevaluated the Miltex, CUSA, Luxtec, and Omni-Tract trade names and determined that they are no longer indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company assigned remaining useful lives ranging from 20 to 30 years, consistent with other trademarks/brand names, and began amortization.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.6 million in cost of goods sold related to technology assets acquired from Confluent Surgical that will no longer be sold resulting from a regulatory event that occurred after the acquisition date. Based on quarter-end exchange rates, annual amortization expense (including amounts reported in cost of product revenues, but excluding any possible future amortization associated with acquired in-process research and development) is expected to approximate $36.0 million in 2015, $40.5 million in 2016, $39.7 million in 2017, $39.6 million in 2018 and $39.5 million in 2019. Identifiable intangible assets are initially recorded at fair market value at the time of acquisition using an income or cost approach.
