REPORTING SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION

The Company's business is comprised of two reporting segments: Engine and Drivetrain. These segments are strategic business groups, which are managed separately as each represents a specific grouping of related automotive components and systems.

The Company allocates resources to each segment based upon the projected after-tax return on invested capital ("ROIC") of its business initiatives. ROIC is comprised of Adjusted EBIT after deducting notional taxes compared to the projected average capital investment required. Adjusted EBIT is comprised of earnings before interest, income taxes and noncontrolling interest (“EBIT") adjusted for restructuring, goodwill impairment charges, affiliates' earnings and other items not reflective of on-going operating income or loss.

Adjusted EBIT is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. The Company believes Adjusted EBIT is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of our reporting segments. The following tables show segment information and Adjusted EBIT for the Company's reporting segments.

Geographic Information

Outside the U.S., only Germany, China, South Korea, Mexico and Hungary exceeded 5% of consolidated net sales during the year ended December 31, 2017, attributing sales to the location of production rather than the location of the customer. Also, the Company's 50% equity investment in NSK-Warner (see the Balance Sheet Information footnote to the Consolidated Financial Statements) of $185.1 million, $172.9 million and $158.7 million at December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, is excluded from the definition of long-lived assets, as are goodwill and certain other non-current assets.
