Note 16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our operating and reportable segments are currently organized around the following products that we offer as part of our core business strategy:

  · Hydroponic Produce
  ·  Cannabis Products

 

These two reportable segments, described in greater detail below, had previously been reported on a combined basis as they had been operated and evaluated as one operating segment. We experienced significant growth over the last year in most of our product areas. As we have grown organically, and as we have added to our capabilities through acquisitions, our products have increased in scale and become more strategically important and distinctly organized and managed under these two groupings. In addition, our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has begun reviewing results and managing and allocating resources among these two strategic business groupings, and we have begun budgeting using these business segments. Our segment information for the year ended December 31, 2013 has been reclassified to conform to our current presentation.

 

Our CODM reviews revenues including intersegment revenues, gross profit and operating income (loss) before income taxes when evaluating segment performance and allocating resources to each segment. Accordingly, intersegment revenue is included in the segment revenues presented in the tables below and is eliminated from revenues and cost of sales in the “Eliminations and Other” column. The “Eliminations and Other” column also includes various income and expense items that we do not allocate to our operating segments. These income and expense amounts include the results of our hydroponic equipment which are not material, interest income, interest expense, corporate overhead and corporate-wide expense items such as legal and professional fees as well as expense items for which we have not identified a reasonable basis for allocation. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Hydroponic Produce – Our locally grown hydroponic produce is started from seed and is grown in environmentally controlled greenhouses. When harvested the products are sold through retailers targeted to customers seeking fresh produce locally grown using environmentally sustainable methods.

 

Cannabis Products – Our cannabis products are currently produced in our lab in California and will be sold in California. The Company was granted eight provisional permits in Nevada and has received approval from the local authorities with respect to six of the eight permits. The Company plans to operate medical marijuana cultivation, production, and dispensary facilities in Nevada through its subsidiaries.

 

Summarized financial information concerning our reportable segments is shown in the following tables. Total asset amounts at December 31, 2014 and 2013 exclude intercompany receivable balances eliminated in consolidation.
