Segment Information

Note 10.  Segment Information

The company has three reportable segments: steel operations (includes Columbus since its September 16, 2014 acquisition), metals recycling and ferrous resources operations, and steel fabrication operations.  Columbus is reported in the steel operations reporting segment from its September 16, 2014, acquisition date. The segment operations are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. Revenues included in the category “Other” are from subsidiary operations that are below the quantitative thresholds required for reportable segments and primarily consist of further processing, slitting, and sale of certain steel products, and the resale of certain secondary and excess steel products.  In addition, “Other” also includes certain unallocated corporate accounts, such as the company’s senior secured credit facility, senior notes, certain other investments and certain profit sharing expenses.

The company’s operations are primarily organized and managed by operating segment. Operating segment performance and resource allocations are primarily based on operating results before income taxes. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are consistent with those described in Note 1 to the financial statements. Intra-segment sales and any related profits are eliminated in consolidation. Refer to the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, for more information related to the company’s segment reporting. The company’s segment results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, are as follows (in thousands):
