The Company operates in and reports as a single operating segment, which is the design and manufacture of a wide range of engine powered products. Net sales are predominantly generated through the sale of generators and other engine powered products through various distribution channels. The Company manages and evaluates its operations as one segment primarily due to similarities in the nature of the products, production processes and methods of distribution. The Company’s sales in the United States represent approximately 85% and 90% of total sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and represent 85% and 90% of total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
