6. Segments
Our reportable segments are Toys “R” Us – Domestic (“Domestic”), which provides toy and juvenile product offerings in 49 states and Puerto Rico, and Toys “R” Us – International (“International”), which operates or licenses “R” Us branded retail stores in 34 foreign countries and jurisdictions with operated stores in Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Domestic and International segments also include their respective Internet operations. Segment operating earnings (loss) excludes corporate related charges and income. All intercompany transactions between segments have been eliminated. Income tax information by segment has not been included as taxes are calculated at a company-wide level and are not allocated to each segment.
