SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS AND INTERNATIONAL SALES
SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS AND INTERNATIONAL SALES:
Segment Reporting
The Company is organized and operates as one reportable segment, the design, development, manufacture and marketing of integrated circuits and related components for use primarily in the high-voltage power-conversion market. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance.
Customer Concentration
The Company's top ten customers accounted for approximately 62% of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and approximately 60% of net revenues in the corresponding period of the previous year. A significant portion of these revenues are attributable to sales of the Company’s products to distributors of electronic components. These distributors sell the Company’s products to a broad, diverse range of end users, including OEMs and merchant power supply manufacturers.
In the three months ended March 31, 2016, two customers, both distributors of the Company's products, accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net revenues. In the three months ended March 31, 2015, one customer, also a distributor, accounted for more than 10% of net revenues.
The following table discloses these customers’ percentage of revenues for the respective periods:
