Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Disclosures

Segment Disclosures

The Company’s operating segments are determined in accordance with the Company’s internal management structure, which is based on operating activities.

Segment operating income (loss) is comprised of segment net revenues less direct cost of staffing services revenue or cost of other revenue, selling, administrative and other operating costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets and restructuring costs. The Company allocates to the segments all operating costs except for costs not directly relating to our operating activities such as corporate-wide general and administrative costs and fees related to restatement, investigations and remediation. These costs are not allocated because doing so would not enhance the understanding of segment operating performance and they are not used by management to measure segment performance. These allocations are included in the calculation of each segment’s operating income (loss). Financial data concerning the Company’s sales and segment operating income (loss) by reportable operating segment are summarized in the following table (in thousands):
