Segment Information

18. Segment Information

The Chief Operating Decision Makers are identified as the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. They review these segment results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company.

In 2012, the CECP segment fell below the threshold and it was combined with the TCA segment. The Company’s business was then separated into TCA and FPC segments. Since the first quarter of 2013, the FPC segment was discontinued and only one TCA segment still existed.

In 2014, the TCA segment was discontinued in the first quarter of 2014, accordingly there was no segment information to be disclosed for the years of 2013, 2014 and 2015 in accordance with FASB ASC 280-10-50-34.
