Basis of Presentation	Sep. 30, 2020
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes of Unisys Corporation have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial statements and footnotes are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, comprehensive income, financial position, cash flows and deficit for the interim periods specified. These adjustments consist only of normal recurring accruals except as disclosed herein. Because of seasonal and other factors, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of estimated credit losses, contract assets, inventories, operating lease right-of-use assets, outsourcing assets, marketable software, goodwill and other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, indemnifications, assumptions used in the calculation for systems integration projects, income taxes and retirement and other post-employment benefits, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. We assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in context with the information reasonably available to us and the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 as of September 30, 2020 and through the date of this report. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to the valuation of estimated credit losses, contract assets, outsourcing assets, marketable software, goodwill and other long-lived assets, and retirement and other post-employment benefits. While there was not a material impact to our consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2020 resulting from our assessments, our future assessment of our current expectations at that time of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other factors, could result in material impacts to our consolidated financial position in future reporting periods. The company’s accounting policies are set forth in detail in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such Annual Report also contains a discussion of the company’s critical accounting policies and estimates. The company believes that these critical accounting policies and estimates affect its more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of the company’s consolidated financial statements.

The company’s financial statements have been retroactively reclassified to report the U.S. Federal business as discontinued operations. As a result, all items relating to the business within the consolidated statements of income (loss) have been reported as income from discontinued operations, net of tax, and all items relating to the business within the consolidated balance sheets have been reported as either assets or liabilities of discontinued operations. Depreciation, amortization, capital expenditures, and significant noncash operating and investing activities related to the U.S. Federal business were immaterial for all periods presented.

Stock Compensation

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2020

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Stock Compensation

Under stockholder approved stock-based plans, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units may be granted to officers, directors and other key employees.

As of September 30, 2020, the company has granted non-qualified stock options and restricted stock units under these plans. The company recognizes compensation cost, net of a forfeiture rate, in selling, general and administrative expense, and recognizes compensation cost only for those awards expected to vest. The company estimates the forfeiture rate based on its historical experience and its expectations about future forfeitures.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the company recorded $11.1 million and $10.1 million of share-based restricted stock unit compensation expense, respectively.

Restricted stock unit awards may contain time-based units, performance-based units, total shareholder return market-based units, or a combination of these units. Each performance-based and market-based unit will vest into zero to two shares depending on the degree to which the performance or market conditions are met. Compensation expense for performance-based awards is recognized as expense ratably for each installment from the date of grant until the date the restrictions lapse, and is based on the fair market value at the date of grant and the probability of achievement of the specific performance-related goals. Compensation expense for market-related awards is recognized as expense ratably over the measurement period, regardless of the actual level of achievement, provided the service requirement is met. Restricted stock unit grants for the company’s directors vest upon award and compensation expense for such awards is recognized upon grant.

A summary of restricted stock unit activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 follows (shares in thousands):


	Restricted Stock Units	Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2019	2,040	$	14.17
Granted	747	22.45
Vested	(940)	13.80
Forfeited and expired	(116)	15.88
Outstanding at September 30, 2020	1,731	17.84

The aggregate weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted stock units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $17.2 million and $16.8 million, respectively. The fair value of restricted stock units with time and performance conditions was determined based on the trading price of the company’s common shares on the date of grant. The fair value of awards with market conditions was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation with the following weighted-average assumptions:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020			2019
Weighted-average fair value of grant	$	28.33		$	16.58
Risk-free interest rate⁽ⁱ⁾	1.35		%	2.49		%
Expected volatility⁽ⁱⁱ⁾	51.81		%	47.91		%
Expected life of restricted stock units in years⁽ⁱⁱⁱ⁾	2.86			2.87
Expected dividend yield	—		%	—		%


⁽ⁱ⁾Represents the continuously compounded semi-annual zero-coupon U.S. treasury rate commensurate with the remaining performance period
⁽ⁱⁱ⁾Based on historical volatility for the company that is commensurate with the length of the performance period
⁽ⁱⁱⁱ⁾Represents the remaining life of the longest performance period

As of September 30, 2020, there was $16.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding restricted stock units granted under the company’s plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The aggregate weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted stock units vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $13.0 million and $14.8 million, respectively.

Common stock issued upon the lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units are newly issued shares. In light of its tax position, the company is currently not recognizing any tax benefits from the issuance of stock upon lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units.

Income Taxes	9 Months Ended
Income Taxes	Sep. 30, 2020
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Accounting rules governing income taxes require that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of recorded assets and liabilities. These rules also require that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by assessing its valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the company’s historical profitability, forecast of future taxable income and available tax-planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. The company uses tax-planning strategies to realize or renew net deferred tax assets to avoid the potential loss of future tax benefits. A full valuation allowance is currently maintained for all U.S. and certain foreign deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities. The company will record a tax provision or benefit for those international subsidiaries that do not have a full valuation allowance against their net deferred tax assets. Any profit or loss recorded for the company’s U.S. operations will have no provision or benefit associated with it due to such valuation allowance, except with respect to withholding taxes not creditable against future taxable income. As a result, the company’s provision or benefit for taxes may vary significantly depending on the geographic distribution of income. A corporation’s ability to deduct its federal NOL carryforwards and utilize certain other available tax attributes can be substantially constrained under the general annual limitation rules of Section 382 of the Code (Section 382) if it undergoes an “ownership change” as defined in Section 382 (generally where cumulative stock ownership changes among material shareholders exceed 50 percent during a rolling three-year period). Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. A future tax “ownership change” pursuant to Section 382, may severely limit or effectively eliminate the company’s ability to utilize its NOL carryforwards and other tax attributes. On August 4, 2020, the company has terminated the previously implemented tax asset protection plan as a result of the completion of sale of the company’s U.S. Federal business.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Contract assets represent rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to a customer when that right is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Contract liabilities represent deferred revenue.

Net contract assets (liabilities) as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows:


	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Contract assets - current	$	47.0	$	38.4
Contract assets - long-term⁽ⁱ⁾	21.3		21.6
Deferred revenue - current	(197.4)		(246.4)
Deferred revenue - long-term	(122.5)		(147.0)

⁽ⁱ⁾Reported in other long-term assets on the company’s consolidated balance sheets

Significant changes during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 in the above contract asset and liability balances were as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Revenue recognized that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period	$	48.1	$	30.1	$	197.3	$	202.1

Capitalized Contract Costs

The company’s incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract consist of sales commissions which are deferred and amortized ratably over the initial contract life. These costs are classified as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when the company expects to recognize the expense. The current and noncurrent portions of deferred commissions are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and in other long-term assets, respectively, in the company’s consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the company had $9.2 million and $9.1 million, respectively, of deferred commissions.

Amortization expense related to deferred commissions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Deferred commissions - amortization expense⁽ⁱ⁾	$	0.8	$	0.7	$	2.3	$	2.4

⁽ⁱ⁾Reported in selling, general and administrative expense in the company’s consolidated statements of income (loss)

Costs on outsourcing contracts are generally expensed as incurred. However, certain costs incurred upon initiation of an outsourcing contract (costs to fulfill a contract), principally initial customer setup, are capitalized and expensed over the initial contract life. These costs are included in outsourcing assets, net in the company’s consolidated balance sheets. The amount of such costs at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $74.2 million and $75.8 million, respectively. These costs are amortized over the initial contract life and reported in Services cost of revenue.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, amortization expense related to costs to fulfill a contract was as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Costs to fulfill a contract - amortization expense	$	7.9	$	5.9	$	20.6	$	17.8

The remaining balance of outsourcing assets, net is comprised of fixed assets and software used in connection with outsourcing contracts. These costs are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the initial contract life or in accordance with the company’s fixed asset policy.Remaining Performance ObligationsRemaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm orders for which work has not been performed and excludes (1) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (2) contracts for which the company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed. At September 30, 2020, the company had approximately $0.8 billion of remaining performance obligations of which approximately 13% is estimated to be recognized as revenue by the end of 2020 and an additional 37% by the end of 2021.

- Definition

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Due to its foreign operations, the company is exposed to the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the U.S. dollar, principally related to intercompany account balances. The company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates on such balances. The company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts, generally having maturities of three months or less, which have not been designated as hedging instruments. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the notional amount of these contracts was $360.9 million and $437.0 million, respectively. The fair value of these forward contracts is based on quoted prices for similar but not identical financial instruments; as such, the inputs are considered Level 2 inputs.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the company’s foreign exchange forward contracts as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.


	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Balance Sheet Location
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	3.2	$	2.1
Other accrued liabilities	0.5		0.1
Total fair value	$	2.7	$	2.0

The following table summarizes the location and amount of gains and losses recognized on foreign exchange forward contracts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Statement of Income Location
Other expense, net	$	13.7	$	(11.9)	$	(10.9)	$	(17.1)

Financial assets with carrying values approximating fair value include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Financial liabilities with carrying values approximating fair value include accounts payable and other liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Such financial instruments are not included in the following table that provides information about the estimated fair values of other financial instruments that are not measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Senior Secured Notes

On April 15, 2020, the company redeemed all $440.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 10.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 (the Notes) for a redemption price equal to 105.375% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued but unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. The redemption price paid was $487.3 million and is made up of the following: $440.0 million of principal amount due, $23.65 million of call premium and $23.65 million of accrued interest through April 14, 2020. In the second quarter of 2020, the company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment in other expense, net of $28.5 million consisting of the premium of $23.65 million and write off of $4.8 million of unamortized discount and fees related to the issuance of the Notes.

Interest expense related to the Notes for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019

Amortization of debt issuance costs	—		0.6		0.7		1.8
Total	$	—	$	12.5	$	14.5	$	37.3

Convertible Senior Notes

In 2016, the company issued $213.5 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”). The 2021 Notes, which are senior unsecured obligations, bear interest at a coupon rate of 5.50% (or 9.5% effective interest rate) per year until maturity, payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The 2021 Notes are not redeemable by the company prior to maturity. The 2021 Notes are convertible by the holders into shares of the company’s common stock if certain conditions set forth in the indenture governing the 2021 Notes have been satisfied. The conversion rate for the 2021 Notes is 102.4249 shares of the company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2021 Notes (or a total amount at issuance date of 21,867,716 shares), which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $9.76 per share of the company’s common stock. Upon any conversion, the company will settle its conversion

obligation in cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. On the maturity date, the company will be required to repay in cash the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, of any 2021 Notes that remain outstanding on that date.

In connection with the issuance of the 2021 Notes, the company also paid $27.3 million to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions with the initial purchasers and/or affiliates of the initial purchasers. The capped call transactions will cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of the company’s common stock that will initially underlie the 2021 Notes. The capped call transactions will effectively raise the conversion premium on the 2021 Notes from approximately 22.5% to approximately 60%, which raises the initial conversion price from approximately $9.76 per share of common stock to approximately $12.75 per share of common stock. The capped call transactions are expected to reduce potential dilution to the company’s common stock and/or offset potential cash payments the company is required to make in excess of the principal amount upon any conversion of the 2021 Notes.

On August 2, 2019, the company entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements pursuant to which it (i) issued an aggregate of 10,593,930 shares of its common stock, and (ii) paid cash in an aggregate amount of $59.4 million, such cash amount included $3.1 million of accrued and unpaid interest on the exchanged 2021 Notes up to, but excluding, the settlement date, in exchange for $129.3 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 2021 Notes. The transactions closed on August 6, 2019. Upon closing, $84.2 million aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes remained outstanding. In connection with the transactions, the company unwound a pro rata portion of the capped call transactions described above and received proceeds of $7.2 million. Following the 2021 Notes exchange, the capped call transactions remaining cover approximately 8.6 million shares of the company’s common stock. As a result of the exchange, the company recognized a charge of $20.2 million in other expense, net in the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Interest expense related to the 2021 Notes for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019

Other Debt

On March 27, 2019, the company entered into a $27.7 million Installment Payment Agreement (IPA) with a syndicate of financial institutions to finance the acquisition of certain software licenses necessary for the provision of services to a client. Interest accrues at an annual rate of 7.0% and the company is required to make monthly principal and interest payments on each agreement in arrears. At September 30, 2020, $6.3 million was reported in current maturities of long-term debt.

On September 5, 2019, the company entered into a vendor agreement in the amount of $19.3 million to finance the acquisition of certain software licenses used to provide services to its clients and for its own internal use. Interest accrues at an annual rate of 5.47% and the company is required to make annual principal and interest payments in advance with the last payment due on March 1, 2024. At September 30, 2020, $3.6 million was reported in current maturities of long-term debt.

Revolving Credit Facility

The company has a secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for loans and letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $145.0 million (with a limit on letters of credit of $30.0 million). The Credit Agreement includes an accordion feature allowing for an increase in the amount of the facility up to $150.0 million. Availability under the credit facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to the company’s receivables. At September 30, 2020, the company had no borrowings and $5.8 million of letters of credit outstanding, and availability under the facility was $71.2 million net of letters of credit issued. The Credit Agreement expires October 5, 2022, subject to a springing maturity on the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the 2021 Notes unless, on such date, certain conditions are met.

The credit facility is guaranteed by Unisys Holding Corporation, Unisys NPL, Inc., Unisys AP Investment Company I and any future material domestic subsidiaries. The facility is secured by the assets of the company and the subsidiary guarantors, other than certain excluded assets, under a security agreement entered into by the company and the subsidiary guarantors in favor of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as agent for the lenders under the credit facility.

The company is required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if the availability under the credit facility falls below the greater of 10% of the lenders’ commitments under the facility and $15.0 million.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, including that there has been no material adverse change in the company’s business, properties, operations or financial condition. The Credit Agreement includes limitations on the ability of the company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur other debt or liens, dispose of assets and make acquisitions, loans and investments, repurchase its equity, and prepay other debt. Events of default include non-payment, failure to comply with covenants, materially incorrect representations and warranties, change of control and default under other debt aggregating at least $50.0 million.

At September 30, 2020, the company has met all covenants and conditions under its various lending and funding agreements. The company expects to continue to meet these covenants and conditions.

Litigation and Contingencies	9 Months Ended
Litigation and Contingencies	Sep. 30, 2020
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Litigation and Contingencies	Litigation and Contingencies There are various lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings that have been brought or asserted against the company, which arise in the ordinary course of business, including actions with respect to commercial and government contracts, labor and employment, employee benefits, environmental matters, intellectual property and non-income tax matters. The company records a provision for these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and are adjusted to reflect the impact and status of settlements, rulings, advice of counsel and other information and events pertinent to a particular matter. The company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending against it. Based on its experience, the company also believes that the damage amounts claimed in the lawsuits disclosed below are not a meaningful indicator of the company’s potential liability. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, however, and it is possible that the company’s results of operations or cash flow could be materially affected in any particular period by the resolution of one or more of the legal matters pending against it. The company’s Brazilian operations, along with those of many other companies doing business in Brazil, are involved in various litigation matters, including numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes, as well as disputes associated with former employees and contract labor. The tax-related matters pertain to value-added taxes, customs, duties, sales and other non-income-related tax exposures. The labor-related matters include claims related to compensation. The company believes that appropriate accruals have been established for such matters based on information currently available. At September 30, 2020, excluding those matters that have been assessed by management as being remote as to the likelihood of ultimately resulting in a loss, the amount related to unreserved tax-related matters, inclusive of any related interest, is estimated to be up to approximately $75 million. On June 26, 2014, the State of Louisiana filed a Petition for Damages against, among other defendants, the company and Molina Information Systems, LLC, in the Parish of East Baton Rouge, 19th Judicial District. The State alleged that between 1989 and 2012 the defendants, each acting successively as the State’s Medicaid fiscal intermediary, utilized an incorrect reimbursement formula for the payment of pharmaceutical claims causing the State to pay excessive amounts for prescription drugs. The State contends it has incurred damages of approximately $48 million for the period July 1, 1989 through September 4, 2012, plus interest. The company believes that it has valid defenses to Louisiana’s claims and is asserting them in the pending litigation. With respect to the specific legal proceedings and claims described above, except as otherwise noted, either (i) the amount or range of possible losses in excess of amounts accrued, if any, is not reasonably estimable or (ii) the company believes that the amount or range of possible losses in excess of amounts accrued that are estimable would not be material. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such matters could exceed the amounts accrued in an amount that could be material to the company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in any particular reporting period. Notwithstanding that the ultimate results of the lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings that have been brought or asserted against the company are not currently determinable, the company believes that at September 30, 2020, it has adequate provisions for any such matters.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

The company has two business segments: Services and Technology. Revenue classifications within the Services and Technology segments are as follows:

•Cloud & infrastructure services. This represents revenue from helping clients apply cloud and as-a-service delivery models to capitalize on business opportunities, make their end users more productive and manage and secure their IT infrastructure and operations more economically.

•Application services. This represents revenue from helping clients transform their business processes by developing and managing new leading-edge applications for select industries, offering advanced data analytics and modernizing existing enterprise applications.

•Business process outsourcing (BPO) services. This represents revenue from the management of critical processes and functions for clients in target industries, helping them improve performance and reduce costs.

•Technology. This represents revenue from designing and developing software and offering hardware and other related products to help clients improve security and flexibility, reduce costs and improve the efficiency of their data-center environments.

The accounting policies of each business segment are the same as those followed by the company as a whole. Intersegment sales and transfers are priced as if the sales or transfers were to third parties. Accordingly, the Technology segment records intersegment revenue and manufacturing profit on hardware and software shipments to customers under Services contracts. The Services segment, in turn, records customer revenue and marketing profits on such shipments of company hardware and software to customers. The Services segment also includes the sale of hardware and software products sourced from third parties that are sold to customers through the company’s Services channels. In the company’s consolidated statements of income, the manufacturing costs of products sourced from the Technology segment and sold to Services customers are reported in cost of revenue for Services.

Also included in the Technology segment’s sales and operating profit are sales of hardware and software sold to the Services segment for internal use in Services engagements. The amount of such profit included in operating income of the Technology segment for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $5.3 million and zero, respectively. The amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $5.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The sales and profit on these transactions are eliminated in Corporate.

The company evaluates business segment performance based on operating income exclusive of the service cost component of postretirement income or expense, restructuring charges and unusual and nonrecurring items, which are included in Corporate. All other corporate and centrally incurred costs are allocated to the business segments based principally on revenue, employees, square footage or usage.

A summary of the company’s operations by business segment for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 is presented below:
