Business Segments | Business Segments The Company operates in two reportable segments: the operation of retail department stores (“retail operations”) and a general contracting construction company (“construction”). For the Company’s retail operations, the Company determined its operating segments on a store by store basis. Each store’s operating performance has been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company’s operating segments are aggregated for financial reporting purposes because they are similar in each of the following areas: economic characteristics, class of consumer, nature of products and distribution methods. Revenues from external customers are derived from merchandise sales, and the Company does not rely on any major customers as a source of revenue. Across all stores, the Company operates one store format under the Dillard’s name where each store offers the same general mix of merchandise with similar categories and similar customers. The Company believes that disaggregating its operating segments would not provide meaningful additional information. The following table summarizes the percentage of net sales by segment and major product line: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended August 1, 2020 August 3, 2019 August 1, 2020 August 3, 2019 Retail operations segment Cosmetics 14 % 13 % 14 % 13 % Ladies’ apparel 21 24 21 24 Ladies’ accessories and lingerie 16 16 16 15 Juniors’ and children’s apparel 9 8 9 10 Men’s apparel and accessories 20 19 18 17 Shoes 13 14 14 15 Home and furniture 4 3 4 3 97 97 96 97 Construction segment 3 3 4 3 Total 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % The following tables summarize certain segment information, including the reconciliation of those items to the Company’s consolidated operations: (in thousands of dollars) Retail Construction Consolidated Three Months Ended August 1, 2020: Net sales from external customers $ 893,216 $ 25,828 $ 919,044 Gross profit 277,407 1,790 279,197 Depreciation and amortization 50,784 167 50,951 Interest and debt expense (income), net 12,885 (12) 12,873 (Loss) income before income taxes (33,699) 373 (33,326) Total assets 3,056,320 26,916 3,083,236 Three Months Ended August 3, 2019: Net sales from external customers $ 1,378,163 $ 48,700 $ 1,426,863 Gross profit 395,137 (288) 394,849 Depreciation and amortization 54,207 176 54,383 Interest and debt expense (income), net 12,278 (30) 12,248 Loss before income taxes (50,929) (1,222) (52,151) Total assets 3,463,087 48,992 3,512,079 Six Months Ended August 1, 2020: Net sales from external customers $ 1,644,243 $ 61,456 $ 1,705,699 Gross profit 373,441 3,942 377,383 Depreciation and amortization 101,516 336 101,852 Interest and debt expense (income), net 25,176 (33) 25,143 (Loss) income before income taxes (262,366) 895 (261,471) Total assets 3,056,320 26,916 3,083,236 Six Months Ended August 3, 2019 Net sales from external customers $ 2,798,685 $ 93,619 $ 2,892,304 Gross profit 931,508 1,015 932,523 Depreciation and amortization 106,401 346 106,747 Interest and debt expense (income), net 23,542 (57) 23,485 Income (loss) before income taxes 49,799 (1,178) 48,621 Total assets 3,463,087 48,992 3,512,079 Intersegment construction revenues of $6.9 million and $6.2 million for the three months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, respectively, and $18.3 million and $14.6 million for the six months ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, respectively, were eliminated during consolidation and have been excluded from net sales for the respective periods.
