The Company utilizes segment profit, which is defined as net sales minus cost of sales and SG&A inclusive of the provision for credit losses (aside from corporate overhead expense), and segment profit as a percentage of net sales to assess the profitability of each segment. Transactions between segments are not material. Segment assets primarily include cash, accounts receivable, inventory, other current assets, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use lease assets and intangible assets. Net sales and long-lived assets are attributed to the geographic regions based on the geographic locations of the end customer and the Company subsidiary, respectively.
The Company’s CODM is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment profit for each segment as part of the Company's annual operating plan and forecasting process. The CODM monitors actual segment profit results relative to operating plan and forecast to assess the performance of the business and allocate resources.
