18. Segment Information | Operating segments are defined under U.S. GAAP as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by a company's chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has two reportable segments – “Carrier Services” and “Business Services”. These segments are organized by the products and services that are sold and the customers that are served. The Company measures and evaluates its reportable segments based on revenues and gross profit margins. The Company’s measurement of segment gross profit exclude the Company’s executive, administrative and support costs. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. The Company’s segments and their principal activities consist of the following: Carrier Services Carrier Services includes the termination of domestic and international carrier traffic utilizing primarily Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) technology. VoIP permits a less costly and more rapid interconnection between the Company and international telecommunications carriers, and generally provides better profit margins for the Company than other technologies. The Company currently interconnects with over 270 carrier customers and vendors, and is working to expand its interconnection relationships, particularly with carriers in emerging markets. Business Services Through this operating segment, the Company provides cloud communications, cloud connectivity, storage and security solutions to small, medium and large businesses. These services are sold through both the Company’s direct sales force and its partner sales channel, which utilizes the efforts of independent third-party distributors to sell the Company’s products and services.
