19.Segment and Geographic Information

We manage our business under three operating segments: Americas, Europe and Asia. All of our operating segments rely on our core technologies and sell the same products primarily in the global automotive industry. The segments also possess similar economic characteristics, resulting in similar long-term expected financial performance. In addition, we sell to the same customers in all of our operating segments. Accordingly, our operating segments are aggregated into one reportable segment.

We account for geographic sales based on the country from which the sale is invoiced rather than the country to which the product is shipped. We operate in three geographic areas: The Americas (substantially all of which is the United States, with less than 10% from net sales in Brazil), Europe and Asia. Sales and Long-lived assets, net by our geographical regions are as follows (in thousands):
