Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Reporting | Commencing with the reverse merger on April 2, 2014, the Company organized its business into four operating segments to align its organization based upon the Company’s management structure, products and services offered and funding requirements. The four operating segments that management defined were Hardware, Home Goods, eCommerce, and Corporate and Other. Below is a description of each operating segment. Hardware Building upon Infusion Brands’ success with the iconic DualSaw™ and DualTools™ brands, the Company had developed and marketed additional products including the patented RS1000 and RS1200 DualSaw Reciprocating Saws™, the OS2500 and OS3000 DualSaw Oscillating Saw™, and the PS7000 DualTools Polisher/Sander™,. Those products joined the DualSaw PrecisionCS3000™, DualSaw Everyday CS450™, and DualSaw Destroyer CS650™ in the consumer line, as well as the Professional Series DualSaw CS450s and CS650s. The Company also has additional new hardware, lawn and garden and lithium-ion power tools and hand tool products. Home Goods With the execution of the Participation Agreement and required consolidation of Ronco Holdings, Inc. in the first quarter of 2014, the Company entered the Home Goods space through a well known and respected brand in the direct response industry, Ronco®. In addition to Ronco® in the home goods vertical market, the Company has also developed the DOC™ cleaning brand (Your Prescription for Clean™), as well as HomeHero™ (cleaning) and the Infusion Collection (cookware) brands. These brands exist primarily for live shopping distribution, where they have been and continue to be very successful, but also represent an opportunity for both direct response and retail distribution on a product-by-product basis. The Company plans to opportunistically develop or source multiple product offerings for these brands going forward. eCommerce eCommerce include the monetization of the Company’s eDiets.com and asseenontv.com URLs. Through its eDiets.com asset, management during this time period believed there would be existing and new cross-marketing and synergistic opportunities for development and distribution of health and wellness products, as well as subscription and transactional technology revenues, either alone or with strategic partners. During this time period and until October 28, 2014, the Company also owned the URL asseenontv.com, one of the leading marketplace for products sold in the As Seen On TV category. Corporate and Other The Corporate segment is responsible for corporate governance, compliance, strategic planning, and debt and equity capital transactions. The Corporate segment also provides funding to other operating segments when needed. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance based on operating earnings of the respective business segments. The consolidated condensed results of operations include the revenues and expenses of Ronco subsequent to March 6, 2014, the date Ronco became a VIE, and ASTV’s business subsequent to April 2, 2014, the closing date of the reverse acquisition. Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable segments for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are shown in the following tables.
