Schedule of Segment Reporting Information, by Segment

NOTE 16 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

Tech Data operates predominately in a single industry segment as a distributor of technology products, logistics management, and other value-added services. While the Company operates primarily in one industry, it is managed based on geographic segments. The Company manages its operations in three geographic segments: the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

The Company does not consider stock-based compensation expense in assessing the performance of its operating segments, and therefore the Company excludes stock-based compensation expense from segment information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 – Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Financial information by geographic segment is as follows (in thousands):
