Net Sales – Segment net sales are attributed to individual segments based on the geographic source of the billing for such customer sales. Intercompany sales include finished products manufactured in foreign countries which are then transferred to the United States and Europe for sale; finished goods manufactured in the United States which are transferred to Europe and Asia for sale; and semi-finished components manufactured in the United States which are sold to Asia for further processing. Income from operations represents net sales less operating costs and expenses and does not include any amounts related to intercompany transactions. The following items are included in the segment data presented above: Recent Acquisitions – At December 31, 2015 and 2014, Power Solutions' total assets of $199.2 million and $203.1 million, respectively, and Connectivity Solutions' total assets of $134.2 million and $133.1 million, respectively, are included in the table above. See Note 2, "Acquisitions and Disposition," for further information on the 2014 Acquisitions. The acquisitions in 2014 and 2013 contributed to Bel's segment net sales and income from operations as follows:

The territory of Hong Kong became a Special Administrative Region ("SAR") of the PRC in the middle of 1997. The territory of Macao became a SAR of the PRC at the end of 1999. Management cannot presently predict what future impact this will have on the Company, if any, or how the political climate in the PRC will affect the Company's contractual arrangements in the PRC. A significant portion of the Company's manufacturing operations and approximately 38.7% of its identifiable assets are located in Asia. Net Sales to Major Customers The Company had net sales to one customer in excess of ten percent of consolidated net sales in each of 2015 and 2014. The net sales associated with this customer was $74.8 million in 2015 (13.2% of sales) and $76.4 million in 2014 (15.7% of sales). The Company had net sales to two customers in excess of ten percent of consolidated net sales in 2013. The combined net sales from these two customers was $103.3 million (29.6% of total sales) during the year ended December 31, 2013. Net sales related to these significant customers were primarily reflected in the Asia operating segment during each of the three years discussed.
