Segment Information

f. Segment Information. Effective January 1, 2015, the company changed the grouping of certain of its classes of products and services. As a result, certain revenue (principally company technology products) previously reported in the company’s Services segment is now reported in its Technology segment. As a result, prior-periods segment revenue and cost of sales, as well as customer revenue by classes of similar products and services, have been reclassified to conform to the current-year period.

The company has two business segments: Services and Technology. Revenue classifications within the Services segment are as follows:

• Cloud & infrastructure services. This represents revenue from work the company performs in the data center and cloud area, technology consulting and technology-based systems integration projects, as well as global service desks and global field services.

• Application services. This represents revenue from application managed services and application development, maintenance and support work.

• Business processing outsourcing services. This represents revenue from the management of clients’ specific business processes.

The accounting policies of each business segment are the same as those followed by the company as a whole. Intersegment sales and transfers are priced as if the sales or transfers were to third parties. Accordingly, the Technology segment recognizes intersegment revenue and manufacturing profit on hardware and software shipments to customers under Services contracts. The Services segment, in turn, recognizes customer revenue and marketing profits on such shipments of company hardware and software to customers. The Services segment also includes the sale of hardware and software products sourced from third parties that are sold to customers through the company’s Services channels. In the company’s consolidated statements of income, the manufacturing costs of products sourced from the Technology segment and sold to Services customers are reported in cost of revenue for Services.

Also included in the Technology segment’s sales and operating profit are sales of hardware and software sold to the Services segment for internal use in Services engagements. The amount of such profit included in operating income of the Technology segment for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $1.6 million and zero, respectively. The amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $9.1 million and $.4 million, respectively. The profit on these transactions is eliminated in Corporate.

The company evaluates business segment performance based on operating income exclusive of pension income or expense, restructuring charges and unusual and nonrecurring items, which are included in Corporate. All other corporate and centrally incurred costs are allocated to the business segments based principally on revenue, employees, square footage or usage.
