Information on Business Segments

The Company is organized based upon the nature of its products and services. Segment information is consistent with how management reviews the businesses, makes investing and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance. The Company has not aggregated operating segments for purposes of identifying reportable segments.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company changed its organizational structure to align its strategic business units into two reportable segments: Aerospace and Industrial. The Company has transferred the Associated Spring Raymond business ("Raymond"), its remaining business within the former Distribution segment, to the Industrial segment. Raymond sells, among other products, springs that are manufactured by one of the Industrial businesses. All previously reported financial information has been adjusted on a retrospective basis to reflect the segment realignment.

The Aerospace segment produces precision-machined and fabricated components and assemblies for original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) of commercial jet engines, airframes and industrial gas turbines throughout the world, and for the military. Aerospace also provides jet engine component overhaul and repair services for many of the world's major jet engine manufacturers, commercial airlines and the military. In addition, Aerospace manufactures and provides aerospace aftermarket spare parts. The Industrial segment is a global supplier of high quality manufactured precision components for critical applications, and a leading designer and manufacturer of highly engineered and customized hot runner systems and components, serving diverse industrial end-markets such as transportation, energy, electronics, medical devices and consumer products. The Industrial segment also participates in the design, assembly and distribution of engineered supplies for the global industrial base.

The following tables, adjusted on a retrospective basis to reflect the segment alignment, set forth information about the Company's operations by its two reportable segments:
