Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information and Geographic Data | Note 21 Segment Information and Geographic Data On October 27, 2014, Zebra acquired a portion of the Enterprise business of Motorola Solutions, Inc. for $3.45 billion in an all-cash transaction. As a result of this acquisition, Zebra is in a period of transition as it relates to organizational alignment and management reporting which could impact segment reporting in future periods. However, at December 31, 2014, Zebra has two reportable segments: Legacy Zebra (“Z”) and Enterprise (“E”). Segment assets are not reviewed by Zebra’s chief operating decision maker and therefore are not disclosed below. (in thousands):
