Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment Information We have four business segments (Asia, Europe, North America and Latin America and Other) based primarily upon the geographic region where each segment operates, as well as the internal organization of our officers and their responsibilities. Each of the geographic segments operate under the Nature’s Sunshine Products and Synergy® WorldWide brands. The Latin America and Other segment includes our wholesale business in which we sell products to various locally-managed entities independent of the Company that we have granted distribution rights for the relevant market. Historically, our operating segments were based on brand, customer base, geographical operations with three operating business segments under the Nature’s Sunshine Products brand (NSP Americas; NSP Russia, Central and Eastern Europe; and NSP China), and one operating business segment under the Synergy® WorldWide brand. During the second quarter of 2019, we realigned into geographic focused operating business segments across brands to further align regional strategies and drive synergies in product, organizational and go-to-market strategies in local markets. Our internal reporting structure was reorganized to support the new reporting segments and the chief operating decision maker now reviews the operating results of the four segments utilizing a geographic focused format. The presentation of the comparative information has been recast to conform to the 2019 presentation. Net sales for each segment have been reduced by intercompany sales as they are not included in the measure of segment profit or loss reviewed by the chief executive officer. We evaluate performance based on contribution margin (loss) by segment before consideration of certain inter-segment transfers and expenses. Reportable business segment information is as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):
