Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
SEGMENT INFORMATION AND CONCENTRATIONS | SEGMENT INFORMATION AND CONCENTRATIONS The Company considers itself to be a single reportable operating segment which designs, develops, manufactures and markets similar proprietary semiconductor products, including intellectual property. In reaching this conclusion, management considers the definition of the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), how the business is defined by the CODM, the nature of the information provided to the CODM and how that information is used to make operating decisions, allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s CODM is the president and chief executive officer. The results of operations provided to and analyzed by the CODM are at the consolidated level and accordingly, key resource decisions and assessment of performance is performed at the consolidated level. The Company assesses its determination of operating segments at least annually. GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION Net revenue by geographic area presented based upon the location of the OEMs' headquarters are as follows (in millions):

During fiscal 2018, the Company updated the table above from prior period presentation of net revenue based on the country of destination to current period presentation of net revenue based on the location of the OEMs' headquarters. Prior periods have been reclassified to match the current period presentation. The Company’s revenue to external customers is generated principally from the sale of semiconductor products that facilitate various wireless communication applications. Accordingly, the Company considers its product offerings to be similar in nature and therefore not segregated for reporting purposes. Net property, plant and equipment balances, based on the physical locations within the indicated geographic areas are as follows (in millions):
| As of
| September 28, 2018 |  | September 29, 2017
Mexico | $ | 449.4 |  |  | $ | 465.9 |
Japan | 328.4 |  |  | 166.4 |
United States | 123.5 |  |  | 126.9 |

Trade accounts receivable are primarily derived from sales to manufacturers of communications and consumer products and electronic component distributors.

In fiscal 2018, 2017, and 2016, Apple, through sales to multiple distributors, contract manufacturers and direct sales for multiple applications including smartphones, tablets, desktop and notebook computers, watches and other devices, in the aggregate accounted for 47%, 39% and 40% of the Company’s net revenue, respectively.
