The increase in goodwill in the International Package segment was due to the February 2012 acquisition of Kiala S.A., a firm based in Brussels that provides e-commerce retailers a platform to offer delivery options to consumers. The purchase price allocation was not complete as of June 30, 2012 and therefore adjustments to the recorded amount of goodwill may occur prior to the one year anniversary of the acquisition. The remaining decrease in goodwill for both the International Package and Supply Chain & Freight segments was due to the impact of the strengthening U.S. Dollar on the translation of non-U.S. Dollar goodwill balances.
