Segment Reporting | 3. Segment Reporting In its operation of the business, management, including the Company’s chief operating decision maker, who is also the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reviews certain financial information, including segmented statements of operations and the balance sheets. The Company currently operates in two reportable segments: in the broker dealer and intellectual property service segment as well as in the technology development segment. The broker dealer and intellectual property service segment currently has two subsidiaries, Public Ventures and PatentVest. Public Ventures is a full-service broker dealer firm focusing on conducting private and public securities offerings. PatentVest offers in-depth patent research used for investment banking due diligence. The technology development segment currently has one subsidiary, Invizyne. Invizyne is a research and development stage company synthetic biology company. Non-income generating subsidiaries for management of the business, including MDB CG Management Company, Inc. are reported as other. The segments are based on the discrete financial information reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer to make resource allocation decisions and to evaluate performance. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they will provide a distinct product or provide services with different processes. All reported segment revenues are derived from external customers. The accounting policies of the Company’s reportable segments are in consideration of ASC 280 and the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2).
