Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information
Segment Information
Arconic is a global leader in lightweight metals engineering and manufacturing. Arconic’s innovative, multi-material products, which include aluminum, titanium, and nickel, are used worldwide in aerospace, automotive, commercial transportation, building and construction, industrial applications, defense, and packaging. Arconic’s segments are organized by product on a worldwide basis. In the first quarter of 2019, management transferred its aluminum extrusions operations (Aluminum Extrusions) from the Arconic Engineered Structures (AES) business unit within the Engineered Products and Solutions (EP&S) segment to the Global Rolled Products (GRP) segment, based on synergies with GRP including similar customer base, technologies, and manufacturing capabilities. Prior period financial information has been recast to conform to current year presentation.
Segment performance under Arconic’s management reporting system is evaluated based on a number of factors; however, the primary measure of performance is Segment operating profit. Arconic’s definition of Segment operating profit is Operating income excluding Special items. Special items include Restructuring and other charges. Segment operating profit includes the impact of LIFO inventory accounting, metal price lag, intersegment profit eliminations, and derivative activities. Segment operating profit may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Differences between segment totals and consolidated Arconic are in Corporate.
As a result of the reorganization of the business noted above, management assessed and concluded that the remaining AES business unit within the EP&S segment and the Aluminum Extrusions business unit within the GRP segment represent reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. Goodwill of approximately $110 was reallocated from the AES reporting unit to the Aluminum Extrusions reporting unit and these reporting units were evaluated for impairment during the first quarter of 2019. The estimated fair value of each of these reporting units substantially exceeded their carrying value; thus, there was no goodwill impairment.
The Company will continue to evaluate its organizational structure and portfolio in conjunction with its planned separation (see Note S), which may result in further changes to its reportable segments and the need to evaluate assets for impairment in future periods.
The operating results of Arconic’s reportable segments were as follows:
