Reporting Segment And Geographic Information
REPORTING SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages, the Company manages its operations in the following four segments:
Engineering and Construction: This segment primarily serves customers working in architecture, engineering, construction, geospatial and government. Within this segment our most substantial product portfolios are focused on civil engineering and construction, building construction, and geospatial.

Field Solutions: This segment provides solutions for the farming, government and consumer markets, with its products focused on agriculture and geographic information systems (GIS).

Mobile Solutions: This segment provides solutions that enable end-users to monitor and manage their mobile work, mobile workers and mobile assets in the areas of transportation and logistics and field services management.

Advanced Devices - The various operations that comprise this segment are aggregated on the basis that these operations, taken as a whole, do not exceed 10% of the Company's total revenue, operating income or assets. This segment is comprised of the Embedded Technologies, Timing, Applanix, Military and Advanced Systems and ThingMagic businesses.

The Company’s CODM, its Chief Executive Officer, evaluates each of its segment’s performance and allocates resources based on segment operating income before income taxes and some corporate allocations. The Company and each of its segments employ consistent accounting policies. In each of its segments the Company sells many individual products. For this reason it is impracticable to segregate and identify revenue for each of the individual products or group of products.

The following tables present revenue, operating income, depreciation expense and identifiable assets for the four segments. Operating income is revenue less cost of sales and operating expense, excluding general corporate expense, acquisition costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, restructuring charges, stock-based compensation and litigation reserves. The identifiable assets that the CODM views by segment are accounts receivable, inventories and goodwill.

Historically, the Company allocated stock-based compensation to each segment. Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company changed its methodology for allocating stock-based compensation to its segments. Stock-based compensation is shown in the aggregate within unallocated corporate expense and not reflected in the segment results, which is consistent with the way the CODM evaluates each of the segment's performance and allocates resources. The Company has adjusted the presentation of segment information for fiscal 2014 and 2013 to conform to the current year methodology. The following table shows the amount of stock-based compensation that had been previously allocated to the business segments in the fiscal 2014 and 2013 and the impact to those segments' Operating income.
