Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment InformationThe Company is organized and managed on a global basis within three operating segments, Identification Solutions ("IDS" or "ID Solutions"), Workplace Safety ("WPS"), and People Identification ("PDC"), which aggregate into two reportable segments that are organized around businesses with consistent products and services: IDS and WPS. The IDS and PDC operating segments aggregate into the IDS reporting segment, while the WPS reporting segment is comprised solely of the Workplace Safety operating segment. The Company evaluates short-term segment performance based on segment profit and customer sales. Impairment charges, interest expense, investment and other income, income taxes, equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliate, and certain corporate administrative expenses are excluded when evaluating segment performance. Following is a summary of segment information as of and for the years ended July 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019:
