Segment Information and Disaggregation of Net Sales
Segment Information and Disaggregation of Net Sales
The Company has three reportable segments, which are described in Note 1. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments and reportable segments based on their sales, operating income and operating margin. Corporate expenses are allocated to the Company’s operating segments using an allocation methodology prescribed by U.S. Government regulations for government contractors. Accordingly, segment results include all costs and expenses, except for goodwill impairment charges, merger and acquisition related expenses, gains or losses related to business divestitures and certain other items that are excluded by management for purposes of evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s business segments.
The tables below present net sales, operating income, depreciation and amortization and total assets by reportable segment.

Disaggregation of Total Net Sales. The Company disaggregates its sales from contracts with customers by: (1) end customer, (2) contract type, (3) deliverable type and (4) revenue recognition method for each of its segments. The Company believes these factors affect the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the Company’s revenue and cash flows.
Sales by End Customer. Direct sales to the end customer represented approximately 63% and 65% of the Company’s consolidated sales for the quarterly periods ended March 29, 2019 and March 30, 2018, respectively, and indirect sales as a subcontractor or supplier represented the remaining 37% and 35%, respectively. The tables below present total net sales disaggregated by end customer.

Includes sales under foreign military sales agreements, which are made directly between the U.S. Government and foreign governments.
Sales by Contract Type. Generally, the sales price arrangements for the Company’s contracts are either fixed-price, cost-plus or time-and-material type. Fixed-price type contracts generally offer higher profit margin potential than cost-plus type or time-and-material type contracts due to the greater levels of risk assumed on a fixed-price type contract.
On a fixed-price type contract, the Company agrees to perform the contractual statement of work for a predetermined sales price. On a cost-plus type contract, the Company is paid its allowable incurred costs plus a profit which can be fixed or variable depending on the contract’s fee arrangement up to predetermined funding levels determined by the customer. Cost-plus type contracts with award and incentive fee provisions are the Company’s primary variable contract fee arrangement. On a time-and-material type contract, the Company is paid on the basis of direct labor hours expended at specified fixed-price hourly rates (that include wages, overhead, allowable general and administrative expenses and profit) and materials at cost.
Substantially all of the Company’s cost-plus type contracts and time-and-material type contracts are with U.S. Government customers, while sales to foreign government and commercial customers are generally transacted under fixed-price sales arrangements and are included in the Company’s fixed-price contract type sales. The tables below present total net sales disaggregated by contract type.
