Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segment Information

Business Segment Information

Effective July 1, 2017, David A. Ciesinski, our President and Chief Operating Officer, succeeded John B. Gerlach, Jr. as CEO. As President and CEO, Mr. Ciesinski became our principal executive officer and CODM. This change resulted in modifications to the CODM’s approach to managing the business, assessing performance and allocating resources. Consequently, our segment reporting structure has been amended to align with these changes, and our financial results will now be presented as two reportable segments: Retail and Foodservice. Costs that are directly attributable to either Retail or Foodservice are charged directly to the appropriate segment. Costs that are deemed to be indirect, excluding corporate expenses and other unusual significant transactions, are allocated to the two reportable segments using a reasonable methodology that is consistently applied. All historical information has been retroactively conformed to the current presentation. These segment changes had no effect on previously reported consolidated net sales, operating income, net income or earnings per share.

Retail - The vast majority of the products we sell in the Retail segment are sold through sales personnel, food brokers and distributors. We have placement of products in U.S. grocery produce departments through our refrigerated salad dressings, vegetable and fruit dips, and croutons. Our flatbread products and sprouted grain bakery products are generally placed in the specialty bakery/deli section of the grocery store. We also have products typically marketed in grocery aisles, which include shelf-stable salad dressing, slaw dressing, dry egg noodles and croutons. Within the frozen aisles of grocery retailers, we also have prominent market positions of frozen yeast rolls, garlic breads and egg noodles.

Foodservice - The vast majority of the products we sell in the Foodservice segment are sold through sales personnel, food brokers and distributors. Products we sell in the Foodservice segment are often custom-formulated and include salad dressings, sandwich and dipping sauces, frozen breads and yeast rolls. The majority of our foodservice sales are products sold under branded and private label to distributors and restaurants primarily in the United States. Additionally, a portion of our sales are dressing packets, frozen specialty noodles, pasta and flatbreads sold to industrial customers for use as ingredients or components in their products.

Within our organization, our procurement, manufacturing, warehousing and distribution activities are substantially integrated across our operations in order to maximize efficiency and productivity, as many of our products are similar between the two segments. Consequently, we do not prepare, and the CODM does not review, separate balance sheets for the reportable segments. As such, our external reporting will not include the presentation of identifiable assets by reportable segment. The composition of our identifiable assets at September 30, 2017 is generally consistent with that of June 30, 2017.

We continue to evaluate our segments based on net sales and operating income. The following summary of financial information has been realigned for all periods presented to reflect the results of the Retail and Foodservice segments:
