Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information
Segment Information
The results of operations of our businesses are reported in two segments:  the “vertical cloud” reporting segment and the “vertical cloud (venture)” reporting segment.  The vertical cloud reporting segment reflects the aggregate financial results of Actua’s businesses: (1) that share the economic and other characteristics, (2) in which Actua’s management takes a very active role in providing strategic direction and operational support, and (3) towards which Actua devotes relatively large proportions of its personnel, financial capital and other resources.  As of the date of this Report, Actua owns majority controlling equity positions in (and therefore consolidates the financial results of) the four businesses in the vertical cloud segment: Bolt, FolioDynamix, GovDelivery and VelocityEHS.  The vertical cloud (venture) reporting segment includes businesses with many characteristics similar to those of the businesses in the vertical cloud segment, but in which Actua takes a less active role in terms of strategic direction and operational support, and, accordingly, towards which Actua devotes relatively small amounts of personnel, financial capital and other resources.
Approximately $6.3 million, $2.5 million and $2.5 million of Actua's consolidated revenue for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, relates to sales generated outside of the United States, primarily in Europe and Canada. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, Actua’s assets were located primarily in the United States.
The following summarizes selected information related to Actua’s segments for the year ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. The amounts presented as “Dispositions” in the following table represent businesses reported as discontinued operations and/or Actua’s share of businesses’ results that had been accounted for under the equity method of accounting but were disposed of. The "Dispositions" were previously a part of the vertical cloud segment. During the year ended December 31, 2014, Actua received a working capital adjustment of less than $0.1 million related to the sale of Procurian. That amount was recorded as a gain and is included in the line item “Income (loss) from discontinued operations, including gain on sale, net of tax” in the Consolidated Financial Statements year ended December 31, 2014. CIML was accounted for under the equity method of accounting until it ceased operations in September 2014. The gain related to the Procurian working capital adjustment reported as discontinued operations, as well as Actua’s share of CIML’s results (including the related intangible amortization recorded by Actua), which was removed from the vertical cloud (venture) segment, are included in “Dispositions” in the segment information table below for the relevant periods presented.
