Note 20:
Segment and Geographic Information

The Company’s product lines consist of heat-transfer components and systems.  The Company serves vehicular and commercial, industrial, and building HVAC&R markets.  In November 2016, the Company acquired Luvata HTS and, commencing from the acquisition date, has operated and reported results for the acquired business as its CIS segment.  See Note 2 for additional information regarding the Luvata HTS acquisition.

The Company’s Americas, Europe, and Asia segments represent its vehicular businesses and primarily serve the automotive, commercial vehicle, and off-highway markets.  In addition, the Americas segment serves the automotive and commercial vehicle aftermarket in Brazil and provides coils to the commercial HVAC&R market in North America.  The Company’s CIS segment provides coils, coolers, and coating solutions to customers throughout the world.  The Company’s BHVAC segment provides heating, ventilating and air conditioning products to customers throughout the world.

Each operating segment is managed by a vice president and has separate financial results reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.  These results are used by management in evaluating the performance of each segment and in making decisions on the allocation of resources among the Company’s various businesses.

Effective April 1, 2018, the Company combined its Americas, Europe, and Asia segment operations with the objective of operating as a more global, product-based organization.  As part of this segment combination and its CIS integration activities, the Company also merged its Americas coils business into the CIS segment and expects to achieve operational improvements and organizational efficiencies as a result.  Beginning for fiscal 2019, the Company will report financial results for the new Vehicular Thermal Solutions segment, which will include the current Americas, Europe and Asia segments.

 (a)
During fiscal 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded $4.3 million and $14.8 million, respectively, of costs incurred directly related to the acquisition and integration of Luvata HTS within SG&A expenses at Corporate.  During fiscal 2017, the Company recorded $4.3 million in cost of sales related to an inventory purchase accounting adjustment at Corporate, as the impact was excluded from the Company’s measure of segment operating performance.

Inter-segment sales are accounted for based upon an established markup over production costs.  Net sales for Corporate and eliminations primarily represent the elimination of inter-segment sales.  The operating loss for Corporate includes certain research and development costs, legal, finance and other general corporate and central services expenses, and other costs that are either not directly attributable to an operating segment or not considered when management evaluates segment performance.
