Segment, Geographic and Customer Information

Segment, Geographic and Customer Information

We operate as a single reportable segment in manufacturing, marketing, selling and distributing a wide variety of branded and private label dairy and dairy case products. We operate 58 manufacturing facilities which are geographically located largely based on local and regional customer needs and other market factors. We manufacture, market and distribute a wide variety of branded and private label dairy and dairy case products, including fluid milk, ice cream, cultured dairy products, creamers, ice cream mix and other dairy products to retailers, distributors, foodservice outlets, educational institutions and governmental entities across the United States. Our products are primarily delivered through what we believe to be one of the most extensive refrigerated DSD systems in the United States. Our Chief Executive Officer evaluates the performance of our business based on operating income or loss before facility closing and reorganization costs, litigation settlements, impairments of long-lived assets, gains and losses on the sale of businesses and certain other non-recurring gains and losses.

Geographic Information — Net sales related to our foreign operations comprised less than 1% of our consolidated net sales during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. None of our long-lived assets are associated with our foreign operations.

Significant Customers — Our largest customer accounted for approximately 15.0% and 17.5% of our consolidated net sales in the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and accounted for approximately 15.8% and 17.2% of our consolidated net sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As disclosed in Note 1, on a prospective basis, effective January 1, 2018, we began reporting sales of excess raw materials within the net sales line of our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As such, the computation, and comparison, of the percentages of our largest customer between fiscal periods is slightly impacted by the change in the presentation of excess raw material sales.
