NOTE 11—SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

The Company reports segment data based on the management approach, which designates the internal reporting that is used by management for making operating and investment decisions and evaluating performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The Company uses one measurement of profitability and does not disaggregate its business for internal reporting. The Company has determined that it operates in one segment, providing wireless handsets and accessories to carriers, distributors and OEM customers in Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Africa and the United States. The following table summarizes the Company’s net sales by geographic area for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 (in thousands):
