Performance by Business Segment
Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements provides an overview of Solventum’s reportable business segments. Upon closing the sale of our Purification and Filtration business, we primarily manage our operations in three business segments: MedSurg, Dental Solutions, and Health Information Systems. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates segment operating performance using net sales and business segment operating income.
All Other
All Other primarily consists of the Water Business that was retained after the sale of the Purification and Filtration Business. All Other also includes sales and cost of sales related to our agreements to supply 3M and other supply agreements assumed by the Company at Spin-Off related to legacy 3M businesses, which were historically included within Corporate and Unallocated.
Corporate and Unallocated
Certain items are maintained at the corporate level and not allocated to the segments ("Corporate and Unallocated"). Corporate and Unallocated primarily includes amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring and related charges, timing related benefits or costs associated with capitalized manufacturing variances, charges and recoveries related to certain litigation, transaction and employee retention costs related to the acquisition of Acera, and gains on sale of businesses. In addition, Corporate and Unallocated includes Spin-Off and separation related costs. Spin-Off and separation related costs include any costs incurred as part of our separation from 3M and costs to setup operations as a standalone company, including system implementations, manufacturing relocations, legal entity separations, certain equity awards granted as part of the Spin-Off, profit mark-ups on transition service arrangements with 3M and other one-time costs. Corporate and Unallocated also includes income and costs related to transition service agreements entered into in connection with the sale of the Purification and Filtration business.
Because Corporate and Unallocated includes a variety of miscellaneous items, it is subject to fluctuation on a quarterly and annual basis.
