In fiscal 2014, the Company operates in four segments: the testing service industry (which performs structural and electronic tests of semiconductor devices), the designing and manufacturing of equipment (which equipment tests the structural integrity of integrated circuits and other products), distribution of various products from other manufacturers in Singapore and Southeast Asia, and the real estate segment in China. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company discontinued operations in the fabrication segment.

 

The real estate segment recorded other income of $51 and $153, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $66 and $197, respectively, for the same periods in the last fiscal year. Due to the short-term nature of the investment, the amount was classified as a loan receivables based on ASC Topic 310-10-25 Receivables, hence the investment income was also classified under other income, which is not part of the below table.

 

The revenue allocated to individual countries was based on where the customers were located. The allocation of the cost of equipment, the current year investment in new equipment and depreciation expense have been made on the basis of the primary purpose for which the equipment was acquired.

 

All inter-segment revenue was from the manufacturing segment to the testing and distribution segments. Total inter-segment revenue was $319 and $515 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, respectively, as compared to $257 and $655, respectively, for the same periods in the last fiscal year.  Corporate assets mainly consisted of cash and prepaid expenses.
