(1)	At June 30, 2017 the accumulated goodwill impairment loss was $829 million.

The increase in the Pharmaceutical segment goodwill during fiscal 2017 is due to acquisitions. Goodwill recognized in connection with acquisitions primarily represents the expected benefits from synergies of integrating this business, the existing workforce of the acquired entity and the expected growth from new customers.

The increase in the Medical segment goodwill during fiscal 2017 is primarily due to the Cordis acquisition. During fiscal 2017, we recorded additional goodwill for Cordis, substantially all of which was to increase an accrual for assumed pre-acquisition product liability lawsuits. The majority of the goodwill acquired in connection with the acquisition of Cordis is deductible for tax purposes. See Note 8 for further discussion of the product liability lawsuits.

See Note 2 for further discussion of these acquisitions.
