Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company has four business segments. These business segments are components of the Company for which separate information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief executive officer in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing relative performance. The Company's four business segments are divided based on the different characteristics of their distributor bases, selling and distributor compensation plans and product formulations, as well as the internal organization of its officers and their responsibilities and business operations. Three business segments operate under the Nature’s Sunshine Products brand (NSP Americas; NSP Russia, Central and Eastern Europe; and China and New Markets). The Company’s China and New Markets segment anticipates deploying a multi-channel go-to-market strategy that offers select Nature’s Sunshine branded products through a direct selling model across China as well as through e-commerce channels. The time to market will be dependent upon regulatory processes including product registration and permit approvals. The China and New Markets segment also includes the Company’s wholesale business, in which the Company sells its products to various locally managed entities independent of the Company that have distribution rights for the relevant market. All of the net sales revenue to date in the China and New Markets segment is through the Company’s wholesale business to foreign markets outside of China detailed below. The fourth business segment operates under the Synergy® WorldWide brand. Reportable business segment information is as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):
