Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information |
| 20. | SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company designs, develops, manufactures and markets a broad range of products, including discrete and standard commodity components ASICs, full custom devices and semi-custom devices and ASSPs” for analog, digital, and mixed-signal applications. In addition, the Company further participates in the manufacturing value chain of smartcard products, which includes the production and sale of both silicon chips and smartcards. The Company’s reportable segments are as follows:
| • | Automotive and Discrete Group (ADG), comprised of dedicated automotive ICs, and discrete and power transistor products.
| • | Analog, MEMS and Sensors Group (AMS), comprised of analog, smart power, low power RF, MEMS sensors and actuators, and optical sensing solutions.
| • | Microcontrollers and Digital ICs Group (MDG), comprised of microcontrollers (general purpose and secure), memories (RF and EEPROM), and RF communications.
For the computation of the segments’ internal financial measurements, the Company uses certain internal rules of allocation for the costs not directly chargeable to the segments, including cost of sales, SG&A expenses and a part of R&D expenses. In compliance with the Company’s internal policies, certain costs are not allocated to the segments, but reported in “Others”. Those comprise unused capacity charges, including reduced manufacturing activity due to COVID-19, impairment, restructuring charges and other related closure costs, management reorganization expenses, phase-out and start-up costs of certain manufacturing facilities, and other unallocated expenses such as: strategic or special R&D programs, certain corporate-level operating expenses, patent claims and litigations, and other costs that are not allocated to product groups, as well as operating earnings of other products. In addition, depreciation and amortization expense is part of the manufacturing costs allocated to the segments and is neither identified as part of the inventory variation nor as part of the unused capacity charges; therefore, it cannot be isolated in cost of sales. Finally, public grants are allocated to the Company’s segments proportionally to the incurred expenses on the sponsored projects. Wafer costs are allocated to the segments based on actual cost. From time to time, with respect to specific technologies, wafer costs are allocated to segments based on market price. The following tables present the Company’s consolidated net revenues and consolidated operating income by reportable segment. Net revenues by reportable segment:
