Segment Information
 
The Company's two operating product line segments are also the Company's reportable segments: Engineered Papers and Advanced Materials and Structures. The EP segment, which consists of the Company's former Paper and Reconstituted Tobacco segments, primarily produces cigarette papers including LIP papers, plug wrap papers and base tipping papers used to wrap various parts of a cigarette for sale to cigarette manufacturers and reconstituted tobacco leaf, or RTL, and wrapper and binder products for sale to cigarette and cigar manufacturers. The EP segment also includes commercial and industrial products such as lightweight printing and writing papers, battery separator paper, drinking straw wrap, filter paper and other specialized papers. These non-tobacco industry products are generally sold directly to converters and other end-users or brokers. The AMS segment, formerly the Filtration segment, primarily produces engineered resin-based, rolled goods such as films, nets, and other non-wovens to for use in high-performance filtration, surface protection, medical, and industrial applications and consists of the operations of DelStar, the December 2014 acquisitions, and Argotec. In conjunction with the consolidation of the Paper and Reconstituted Tobacco segments into the EP segment in October 2015, the corresponding information for all prior periods presented has been restated to correspond to the presentation in the current year.
