SEGMENT REPORTING

SEGMENT REPORTING

The reportable segments are the DSW segment, which includes DSW stores and dsw.com, and the ABG segment. The Company has identified such segments based on internal management reporting and responsibilities and measures segment profit as gross profit, which is defined as net sales less cost of sales. All operations are located in the United States and its territories. The goodwill balance of $25.9 million as of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 is recorded in the DSW segment. In order to reconcile to the consolidated financial statements, the Company includes Other, which consists of assets, liabilities and expenses of the former RVI (see Note 2), the investment in Town Shoes (see Note 3), cash and assets of DSW's Canadian subsidiary.
