Segment Information [Abstract]

Segment revenues, operating profits (losses) and assets

As discussed further in Note 1, included in the government systems segment operating profit for fiscal year 2011 is an $8.5 million forward loss recorded on a government satellite communications program. As discussed in Note 1, also included in the government systems segment operating profit for fiscal year 2011 is an additional $5.0 million in contract related reserves for potential cost adjustments on several multi-year U.S. government cost reimbursable contracts, which resulted in a decrease to revenues and earnings. The Company’s satellite services segment operating profit for fiscal year 2011 reflects a $5.2 million benefit to cost of service revenues related to a WildBlue satellite capacity contract liability acquired and release of future payment liabilities related thereto. Segment revenues and operating profits (losses) for the fiscal years ended March 30, 2012, April 1, 2011 and April 2, 2010 were as follows:
