Correction of misallocation of costs, description Segment Operating Income for the Medical and Biosciences segments for the six months ended March 31, 2014 reflect a correction of a $6 million misallocation of costs between the segments for the three months ended December 31, 2013 which was identified subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. This misallocation, which had no impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows, resulted in an understatement of the Medical segment’s selling and administrative expense with an offsetting overstatement of the Biosciences segment’s selling and administrative expense.
