14. Segment Information | 14. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has four principal reportable segments. These reportable segments were determined based on the nature of the products offered. Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business segment income before taxes. The following tables show the operations of the Company's reportable segments. Effective September 1, 2013, the Company reorganized certain of its subsidiaries. The majority of fixed and intangible assets, and certain Corporate and administrative functions which were formerly contained within the “Lawn, garden, pet and other” reporting segment are now classified as “Corporate and administrative.” The segment information for fiscal year 2014 has been restated for comparability purposes. Following is a summary of segmented information for the years ended August 31:
