NOTE 19 | - | SEGMENT REPORTING
| A. | General information:
The operations of the Group (including the companies we acquired control over on September 2018 as describe in notes 1A, 3) are conducted through two different core activities: Location based services and Wireless communications products. These activities also represent the reportable segments of the Group. The reportable segments are viewed and evaluated separately by Company management, since the marketing strategies, processes and expected long term financial performances of the segments are different. Telematics services: The telematics services segment consists predominantly of regionally- based stolen vehicle recovery (SVR) services, fleet management services and value-added services comprised of personal advanced locater services and concierge services. The Group provides Location based services in Israel, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Ecuador and the United States. Telematics products: The telematics product segment consists of short and medium range two-way machine-to-machine wireless communications products that are used for various applications, including automatic vehicle location, and automatic vehicle identification.

| C. | Information about reported segment profit or loss and assets:
The evaluation of performance is based on the operating income of each of the two reportable segments. Accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the accounting policies applied in the consolidated financial statements. Due to the nature of the reportable segments, there have been no inter-segment sales or transfers during the reported periods. Financing expenses, net, non-operating other expenses, net, taxes on income and the share of the Company in losses of affiliated companies were not allocated to the reportable segments, since these items are carried and evaluated on the enterprise level.
