Segment Information [Abstract] |
Segment Information | 17. SEGMENT INFORMATION Reportable Segments Our sales are primarily comprised of training and consulting services and our internal reporting structure is comprised of three reportable operating segments and a corporate services group. Our internal reporting structure and reportable segments are organized primarily around the client channels which produce the Company’s revenues. The following is a brief description of our reportable segments: Direct Offices – This segment includes our sales personnel that serve the United States and Canada; our international sales offices that serve clients in Japan, China, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria; our governmental sales channel; our coaching operations; and our books and audio sales channel. International Licensees – This segment is primarily comprised of our international licensees’ royalty revenues. Education Practice – This group includes our domestic and international Education practice operations, which are focused on sales to educational institutions. Corporate and Other – Our corporate and other information includes royalty revenue from Franklin Planner Corporation, leasing operations, shipping and handling revenues, and certain corporate administrative expenses. We have determined that the Company’s chief operating decision maker is the CEO, and the primary measurement tool used in business unit performance analysis is Adjusted EBITDA, which may not be calculated as similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. For reporting purposes, w e define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss excluding the impact of interest, income taxes, intangible asset amortization, depreciation, stock-based compensation expense, and certain other items such as adjustments to the fair value of expected contingent consideration liabilities arising from business acquisitions, and other unusual or infrequent items. Our operations are not capital intensive and we do not own any manufacturing facilities or equipment. Accordingly, we do not allocate assets to the divisions for analysis purposes. Interest expense and interest income are primarily generated at the corporate level and are not allocated. Income taxes are likewise calculated and paid on a corporate level (except for entities that operate in foreign jurisdictions) and are not allocated for analysis purposes. We account for our segment information on the same basis as the accompanying consolidated financial statements (in thousands).
