Business Segment Information
Note 11. Business Segment Information

ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes disclosure standards for segments of a company based on management’s approach to defining operating segments.  Reportable segments are defined primarily by the nature of products and services, the nature of the production processes, and the type of customers for our products and services.

We operate in two markets, the medical market and the industrial market.  Within the medical market, we have a number of product lines, endoscopy-based products, including flexible fiber and video endoscopes used in the practices of urology, pulmonology, trans-nasal esophagoscopy and ENT (ear, nose and throat) and a proprietary sterile disposable microbial barrier, known as EndoSheath technology, the Urgent PC® Neuromodulation System (“Urgent PC System”) a minimally-invasive, neuromodulation system that delivers percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation for office-based treatment of overactive bladder and associated symptoms; and Macroplastique® Implants (“Macroplastique”), an injectable, urethral bulking agent for the treatment of adult female stress urinary incontinence.

None of the industrial market sales, net losses or assets are more than 10% of our total sales, losses or assets.  Therefore, we aggregate our operating segments into one reportable segment in accordance with the objectives and principles of the applicable guidance.

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, no country other than the United States represented more than 10% of our consolidated revenue.  Information regarding net sales to customers by geographic area for the three months ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:

Accounting policies of the operations in the various geographic areas are the same as those described in Note 1.  Net sales attributed to each geographic area are net of intercompany sales.  No single customer represents 10% or more of our consolidated net sales.  Long-lived assets consist of property, plant and equipment.
