SEGMENT INFORMATION | ' |
|
As a result of the acquisition of its equity interest in TPE and exclusive distribution rights for Lightsky LED lighting products, the Company reassessed its requirement for segment reporting based on the operating and reporting structure of the combined company. |
|
The Company utilized several criteria, including (i) the Companys organizational structure, (ii) the manner in which the Companys operations are managed, (iii) the criteria used by the Companys Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), to evaluate segment performance and (iv) the availability of separate financial information, as a basis to identify its operating segments. |
|
As of December 31, 2013, the Company determined that it had four reportable business segments: Baokai, Wendeng, ORC and LED. |
|
The Baokai segment consists of the business of Zibo Baokai Commerce and Trade Co., Ltd., a company based in the Shandong province of China that distributes the trichlorosilane production of Zibo Baoyun Chemical Plant. The Wendeng segment consists of the operations of Wendeng He Xie Silicon Industry Co., Ltd., a company based in the Shandong province of China that directly manufactures and sells trichlorosilane. On February 19, 2014 concurrent with the sale of Wendeng and Baokai, these segments ceased to operate. After this date, the Company has two reportable business segments. |
|
The assets and liabilities of Baokai and Wendeng were separately reported as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations held for sale as of December 31, 2013 and the results of operations of these two business segments were separately reported as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, thus, were not included in the segment results, customer information and geographic information. See Note 12 — Discontinued Operations for additional information. |
|
The ORC segment consists of the operations of TransPacific Energy, Inc., a company based in California and Nevada that designs and installs proprietary modular Organic Rankine Cycle units utilizing patented multiple refrigerant mixtures to maximize heat recovery and convert waste heat directly from industrial processes, solar and geothermal, biomass converting it into electrical energy. The LED segment consists of the business of SunSi USA that distributes LED lighting products manufactured in China by Shanghai Lightsky Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. in the major North American markets. |
|
The Company’s CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information by segment for purpose of evaluating financial performance. |
