Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segmented information |
15. | Segmented information:
The Company has two reportable segments Retail and Other. As of March 25, 2017, Retail operated 26 stores across Canada under the Birks brand, and 17 stores in the Southeastern U.S. under the Mayors brand, 1 store under the Rolex brand name in Orlando, as well as 2 retail locations in Calgary and Vancouver under the Brinkhaus brand. Other consists primarily of our e-commerce business, gold exchange business, which purchases gold and other precious metals from clients and refines the metals purchased, wholesale business and until August 2015 the corporate sales division which was sold. The two segments are managed and evaluated separately based on gross profit. The accounting policies used for each of the segments are the same as those used for the consolidated financial statements. Inter-segment sales are made at amounts of consideration agreed upon between the two segments and intercompany profit is eliminated if not yet earned on a consolidated basis. The Company does not evaluate the performance of the Company’s assets on a segment basis for internal management reporting and, therefore, such information is not presented. Certain information relating to the Company’s segments for the years ended March 25, 2017, March 26, 2016, and March 28, 2015, respectively, is set forth below:
