Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information
Segment Information
During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, we reorganized our operating and reporting structure around three lines of business (“LOBs”), which also serve as the Company’s operating segments. This reorganization occurred in conjunction with the integration of CH2M into the Company's legacy businesses, and is intended to better serve our global clients, leverage our workforce, help streamline operations and provide enhanced growth opportunities. Additionally, in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we further refined our operating segment structure to move the GES business from the ATN segment to the BIAF segment to further align with the management and reporting structure of the business. The three global LOBs are as follows: Aerospace, Technology and Nuclear ("ATN"); Buildings, Infrastructure and Advanced Facilities ("BIAF"); and Energy, Chemicals and Resources. Because the results from our ECR business formerly reported as a stand-alone segment are reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented, they are not reflected in the separate segment disclosures below. For further information, refer to Note 7- Discontinued Operations - Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business.
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and can evaluate the performance of each of these segments and make appropriate resource allocations among each of the segments. For purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing, it has been determined that the Company’s operating segments are also its reporting units based on management’s conclusion that the components comprising each of its operating segments share similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria for reporting units in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.
Under this organization, the sales function is managed on an LOB basis, and accordingly, the associated cost is embedded in the segments and reported to the respective LOB presidents. In addition, a portion of the costs of other support functions (e.g., finance, legal, human resources, and information technology) is allocated to each LOB using methodologies which, we believe, effectively attribute the cost of these support functions to the revenue generating activities of the Company on a rational basis. The cost of the Company’s cash incentive plan, the Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”), and the expense associated with the Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (“1999 SIP”) have likewise been charged to the LOBs except for those amounts determined to relate to the business as a whole (which amounts remain in other corporate expenses).
Financial information for each LOB is reviewed by the CODM to assess performance and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. The Company generally does not track assets by LOB, nor does it provide such information to the CODM.
The CODM evaluates the operating performance of our LOBs using segment operating profit, which is defined as margin less “corporate charges” (e.g., the allocated amounts described above). The Company incurs certain Selling, General and Administrative costs (“SG&A”) that relate to its business as a whole which are not allocated to the LOBs.
The following tables present total revenues and segment operating profit from continuing operations for each reportable segment (in thousands) and includes a reconciliation of segment operating profit to total U.S. GAAP operating profit by including certain corporate-level expenses, Restructuring and other charges and transaction and integration costs (in thousands). Prior period information has been recast to reflect the current period presentation.

Other corporate expenses include costs that were previously allocated to the ECR segment prior to discontinued operations presentation in connection with the ECR sale in the approximate amounts of $6.4 million for the three-month periods ended March 29, 2019 and March 30, 2018, respectively, and $12.8 million for the six-month periods ended March 29, 2019 and March 30, 2018, respectively. Other corporate expenses also include intangibles amortization of $18.7 million and $18.2 million for the three-month periods ended March 29, 2019 and March 30, 2018, respectively and $37.3 million and $29.8 million for the six-month periods ended March 29, 2019 and March 30, 2018, respectively.
(2)
Includes gain on the settlement of the CH2M retiree medical plans of $32.4 million and $34.6 million and the amortization of deferred financing fees related to the CH2M acquisition of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the three- and six-month periods ended March 29, 2019, as well as amortization of deferred financing fees related to the CH2M acquisition of $0.5 million and $0.7 million for the three- and six-month periods ended March 30, 2018.
Included in “other corporate expenses” in the above table are costs and expenses which relate to general corporate activities as well as corporate-managed benefit and insurance programs. Such costs and expenses include: (i) those elements of SG&A expenses relating to the business as a whole; (ii) those elements of the Management Incentive Plan and the 1999 SIP relating to corporate personnel whose other compensation costs are not allocated to the LOBs; (iii) the amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of purchased business combinations; (iv) the quarterly variances between the Company’s actual costs of certain of its self-insured integrated risk and employee benefit programs and amounts charged to the LOBs; and (v) certain adjustments relating to costs associated with the Company’s international defined benefit pension plans. In addition, other corporate expenses may also include from time to time certain adjustments to contract margins (both positive and negative) associated with projects where it has been determined, in the opinion of management, that such adjustments are not indicative of the performance of the related LOB.
