9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2012

The Company has segmented its operations to reflect the manner in which management reviews and evaluates the results of its operations. Management evaluates the performance of the Wholesale and Retail Direct segments based on net sales and income (loss) from operations. Such measures give recognition to specifically identifiable operating costs such as cost of sales, distribution expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Certain general and administrative expenses, such as senior executive salaries and benefits, stock compensation, director fees and accounting, legal and consulting fees, are not allocated to the specific segments and are reflected as unallocated corporate expenses.
