SEGMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS

NOTE 6     SEGMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS

As a result of discontinuing the retail segment, see Note 3, the Company now has two reportable segments: OEM distribution and design. The results of the retail segment were classified as discontinued operations as discussed in Note 3. Segment information presented herein excludes the results of the retail segment for all periods presented.

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews revenue and operating income for each segment to assess financial results and allocate resources. For our OEM distribution segment, we exclude general and administrative and general corporate expenses from its measure of profitability as these expenses are not allocated to the segments and therefore not included in the measure of profitability used by the CODM. For the design segment, general and administrative expenses directly attributable to that segment are included in its measure of profitability as these expenses are included in the measure of its profitability reviewed by the CODM. We do not include intercompany activity in our segment results shown below to be consistent with the information that is presented to the CODM. Segment assets consist of accounts receivable and inventory, which are regularly reviewed by the CODM, as well as goodwill and intangible assets resulting from design segment acquisitions.

Information by segment and related reconciliations are shown in tables below:

The Company had certain customers in the OEM distribution segment whose individual percentage of the Company’s consolidated revenues was 10% or greater. There were no customers in the OEM distribution segment whose individual percentage of the Company’s consolidated revenues was 10% or greater during the three months ended December 31, 2023. Revenues from two customers or their affiliates or contract manufacturers represented 27.7% of the Company’s consolidated net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

For the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had one customer in the design segment whose individual percentage of the Company’s consolidated revenues was 10% or greater. Revenues from this customer represented 27.5% and 15.9%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

At December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, the Company had customers in the OEM distribution segment whose accounts receivable balance accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable. One customer or its affiliate or contract manufacturer represented 13.5% and 12.0% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable at December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

At December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, the Company had one customer in the design segment whose accounts receivable balance accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable. Accounts receivable from this customer represented 28.4% and 31.1%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable at December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023.

In March 2023, the Company’s contract with one of its major diabetic customers in the OEM distribution segment expired. Due to increased pricing pressures, the Company did not extend its contract with this customer. Revenue from this customer represented 13.4% of our consolidated net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The Company expects the loss of this customer to cause a significant decline in OEM distribution segment revenues in future periods.
