Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]
During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company’s portfolio of brands was realigned into four operating segments, which the Company has determined to be reportable operating segments. The Company’s operating segments are determined on the basis of how the Company internally reports and evaluates financial information used to make operating decisions. The Company’s reportable operating segments are now:
•

The Company also reports “Other” and “Corporate” categories. The Other category consists of the Company’s leather marketing operations and sourcing operations that include third-party commission revenues. The Corporate category consists of unallocated corporate expenses, including acquisition-related integration costs and restructuring and impairment costs.
