Business Segments And Foreign Operations [Abstract]  
Business Segments And Foreign Operations Note 13. Business Segments and Foreign Operations

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on sales and income from operations. The Company is organized on the basis of geographical area into the following three segments: the Americas; EMEA; and Asia-Pacific. Unallocated corporate expenses are general corporate overhead expenses not directly attributable to the business segments and are reported separate from the Company’s identified segments. The corporate overhead costs include expenses for the Company’s accounting and finance, information technology, human resources, research and development, quality control and executive management functions, as well as all direct costs associated with public company compliance matters including legal, audit and other professional services costs.

Summary information about reportable segments is as follows (in thousands):
