13.           SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company has four principal reportable segments. Three segments are continuing operations and one, Industrial Tools and Clamps, is considered as a discontinued operation. 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.
