18. | Segment Information
We report segment information consistent with the way our chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”), a single individual who serves as our Board Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the operating results and performance of the Company. We have strategically aligned our business into two reportable segments as defined in ASC 280, Segment Reporting, and as described below:
| ● | Wholesale. The wholesale home furnishings segment is involved principally in the design, manufacture, sourcing, sale and distribution of furniture products to a network of Bassett stores (Company-owned and licensee-owned retail stores) and independent furniture retailers. Our wholesale segment includes our wood and upholstery operations, which includes Lane Venture.
| ● | Retail – Company-owned stores. Our retail segment consists of Company-owned stores and includes the revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and capital expenditures directly related to these stores and the Company-owned distribution network utilized to deliver products to our retail customers.
In addition to the two reportable segments described above, we include our remaining business activities and assets in a reconciling category known as Corporate and other. This category includes the shared costs of corporate functions such as treasury and finance, information technology, accounting, human resources, legal and others, including certain product development and marketing functions benefitting both wholesale and retail operations. In addition to property and equipment and various other assets associated with the shared corporate functions, the identifiable assets of Corporate and other include substantially all of our cash and our investments in CDs. We consider our corporate functions to be other business activities and have aggregated them with any of our operating segments that do not meet the requirements to be reportable segments. As of and for the periods ended November 29, 2025, November 30, 2024 and November 25, 2023, the only such operating segment included in Corporate and other is Noa Home, which was acquired on September 2, 2022. All sales reported in our Corporate and other category are attributable to Noa Home, which generated substantially all of its sales outside of the United States. During the second fiscal quarter of 2024 we concluded that Noa Home was not likely to achieve profitability in the foreseeable future and ceased operations as of November 30, 2024 after selling the remaining inventory in an orderly fashion over the second half of fiscal 2024. Inter-segment net sales and cost of goods sold eliminations represent the elimination of wholesale sales to our Company-owned stores. Inter-segment gross profit elimination represents the change in the embedded wholesale profit in the Company-owned store inventory that has not been realized. These profits are recorded when merchandise is delivered to the retail consumer. The inter-segment SG&A expense elimination includes rent charged to our retail stores occupying Company-owned real estate. For the purpose of evaluating segment performance and allocating resources, our CODM uses a measure of income (loss) from operations excluding special items. These excluded items include such things as asset impairment charges, restructuring charges, and other unusual or infrequent gains and losses which management does not expect to recur on a regular routine basis (see Note 14, Other Gains and Losses, for further discussion of these items). The CODM assesses performance by regularly reviewing each segment’s significant expense categories which include total cost of goods sold and total SG&A expenses. If these significant expense categories deviate from expected results, the CODM will delegate to his direct reports the task of investigating the underlying causes and, when necessary, making recommendations for remedial action to the CODM for his consideration and approval. The following table presents segment results of operations for each of the last three fiscal years:
