9. SEGMENT INFORMATION

ASC 280 Segment Reporting provides annual and interim reporting standards for an enterprise’s business segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographical areas and major customers. Through September 30, 2015 the Company had two operating segments: (1) patent licensing and (2) products and services. Patent licensing consists of intellectual property revenues from patent portfolios and products and services consisted of sales of the Company’s electronic eVU mobile entertainment device and related content services. The Company terminated providing eVU services in September 2015.

 

Accounting policies for each of the operating segments are the same as on a consolidated basis.

  

Reportable segment information for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

The Company does not have significant assets employed in the patent license segment and does not track capital expenditures or assets by reportable segment. Consequently, it is not practical to show this information.

 

Revenue by geographic region is determined based on the location of the Company’s direct customers or distributors for product sales and services. Patent license revenue is considered United States revenue as payments are for licenses for United States operations irrespective of the location of the licensee’s home domicile.
