. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
 
The Company operates in 
one
 reportable segment that includes the design, development, marketing and sale of high-performance analog solutions for the consumer, computing and storage, industrial, automotive and communications markets. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company derives a majority of its revenue from sales to customers located outside North America, with geographic revenue based on the customers’ ship-to locations. 
 
The Company sells its products primarily through 
third
-party distributors and value-added resellers, and directly to original equipment manufacturers, original design manufacturers and electronic manufacturing service providers. The following table summarizes those customers with sales equal to or greater than 
10%
 of the Company's total revenue, or with accounts receivable balances greater than 
10%
 of the Company’s total accounts receivable:

The Company’s agreements with these 
third
-party distributors and value-added reseller were made in the ordinary course of business and 
may 
be terminated with or without cause by these customers with advance notice. Although the Company 
may 
experience a short-term disruption in the distribution of its products and a short-term decline in revenue if its agreement with any of these customers was terminated, the Company believes that such termination would 
not
 have a material adverse effect on its financial statements because it would be able to engage alternative distributors, resellers and other distribution channels to deliver its products to end customers within a short period following the termination of the agreement with the customer.
