Segment Information [Abstract] |
Segment Information | 18. Segment Information The Company reports revenue from nine segments, consisting of its seven geographic Nu Skin segments—Mainland China, South Korea, Southeast Asia, Americas/Pacific, Japan, Hong Kong/Taiwan, and EMEA—and its Manufacturing and Grow Tech segments, which the Company decided to disclose separately beginning in the first quarter of 2019. Previously, these latter two segments were included in the Other category. The Other category includes miscellaneous corporate revenue and related adjustments. These segments reflect the way the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) evaluates the Company’s business performance and allocates resources. Reported revenue for these segments includes only the revenue generated by sales to external customers. The seven geographic Nu Skin segments generate revenue from the sale of personal care products and wellness products under the Nu Skin, Pharmanex and ageLOC brands, all of which have similar business characteristics and align with how the CODM function assesses performance and allocates resources. Segment information for 2018 has been recast to reflect the separate disclosure of the Manufacturing and Grow Tech segments, both of which were previously included in the Other category. Consolidated financial information is not affected. Profitability by segment as reported under U.S. GAAP is driven primarily by the Company’s international taxation policies. Segment contribution, which is the Company’s segment profitability metric presented in the table below, excludes certain intercompany charges, specifically royalties, license fees, transfer pricing, discrete charges and other miscellaneous items. These charges have been included in Corporate and other expenses. Corporate and other expenses also include costs related to the Company’s executive and administrative offices, information technology, research and development, marketing and supply chain functions not recorded at the segment level. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, “The Company.” The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenue and segment contribution. Each segment records direct expenses related to its employees and its operations. Summarized financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following tables. Asset information is not reviewed or included with the Company’s internal management reporting. Therefore, the Company has not disclosed asset information for each reportable segment.
