Segment and Related Disclosures | Note 3–Segment and Related Disclosures The internal reporting structure used by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for our reportable operating segments. Our CODM is our Chairman of the Board of Directors, and she evaluates operations and allocates resources based on a measure of operating income. Our operations are organized under three reporting segments—the SMB segment, which serves primarily small- and medium-sized businesses; the Large Account segment, which serves primarily medium-to-large corporations; and the Public Sector segment, which serves primarily federal, state, and local governmental and educational institutions. In addition, the Headquarters/Other group provides services in areas such as finance, human resources, information technology, marketing, and product management. Most of the operating costs associated with the Headquarters/Other group functions are charged to the operating segments based on their estimated usage of the underlying functions. We report these charges to the operating segments as “Allocations.” Certain headquarters costs relating to executive oversight and other fiduciary functions that are not allocated to the operating segments are included under the heading of Headquarters/Other in the tables below. Net sales presented below exclude inter-segment product revenues. Segment information applicable to our reportable operating segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 is shown below: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 June 30, 2014 June 30, 2015 June 30, 2014 Net sales: SMB $ 259,346 $ 268,056 $ 509,220 $ 521,527 Large Account 231,803 222,276 441,262 423,208 Public Sector 136,473 142,912 258,399 248,269 Total net sales $ 627,622 $ 633,244 $ 1,208,881 $ 1,193,004 Operating income (loss): SMB 10,811 9,570 20,142 17,377 Large Account 11,434 10,326 19,909 18,102 Public Sector 579 1,694 (16 ) (191 ) Headquarters/Other (3,201 ) (2,388 ) (6,233 ) (4,340 ) Total operating income $ 19,623 $ 19,202 $ 33,802 $ 30,948 Interest/other expense, net (39 ) (26 ) (38 ) (36 ) Income before taxes $ 19,584 $ 19,176 $ 33,764 $ 30,912 Selected Operating Expense: Depreciation and amortization: SMB 6 1 10 2 Large Account 324 341 653 675 Public Sector 39 24 79 68 Headquarters/Other 1,810 1,420 3,628 3,118 Total depreciation and amortization $ 2,179 $ 1,786 $ 4,370 $ 3,863 Assets at June 30, 2015: SMB $ 205,521 Large Account 282,032 Public Sector 65,330 Headquarters/Other 49,663 Total assets $ 602,546 The assets of our three operating segments presented above consist primarily of accounts receivable, intercompany receivable, goodwill, and other intangibles. Assets reported under the Headquarters/Other group are managed by corporate headquarters, including cash, inventory, and property and equipment. Total assets for the Headquarters/Other group are presented net of intercompany balance eliminations of $34,444 as of June 30, 2015. Our capital expenditures consist largely of IT hardware and software purchased to maintain or upgrade our management information systems. These systems serve all of our subsidiaries, to varying degrees, and accordingly, our CODM does not evaluate capital expenditures on a segment basis. |
