Description of Business and Basis of Presentation | Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Zebra Technologies Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Zebra” or the “Company”) is a global leader providing innovative Enterprise Asset Intelligence (“EAI”) solutions in the automatic indentification and data capture solutions industry. We design, manufacture, and sell a broad range of products that capture and move data. We also provide a full range of services, including maintenance, technical support, repair, and managed services, including cloud-based subscriptions. End-users of our products and services include those in retail, transportation and logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, hospitality, warehouse and distribution, energy and utilities, and education industries around the world. We provide our products and services globally through a direct sales force and an extensive network of partners. Management prepared these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information and notes. These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. In the opinion of the Company, these interim financial statements include all adjustments (of a normal, recurring nature) necessary to present fairly its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2017 and the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016, and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016. These results, however, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
