Disaggregation of Revenue, Significant Customers, and Geographic Information

Note 13 – Disaggregation of Revenue, Significant Customers, and Geographic Information

 

The Company has one reportable segment, which manufactures and distributes cultured dairy products. Our products are produced using the same processes and materials and are sold to consumers through a common network of distributors and retailers. The Company derives revenue primarily in North America and manages the business activities on a consolidated basis. The business activities include selling cultured dairy products across various channels including retail-direct, distributor, and direct store delivery in a refrigerated format. We operate our business with a centralized financial systems infrastructure, and we share centralized resources for procurement and general and administrative activities. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for the Company. Refer to Note 1 for additional information.

 

The Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) has been identified as our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The Company manages operations on a company-wide basis, thereby making determinations as to the allocation of resources as one segment. The CODM uses consolidated single-segment financial information to assess performance for the segment and decides how to allocate resources based on the Company’s consolidated net income (loss), which is reported on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as total assets.
