Business Segment Information
Note 10. Business Segment Information
The Company discloses information about its operating segments, which were established based on the way that our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer. The Company's two operating segments are described below.
CooperVision. Competes in the worldwide contact lens market by developing, manufacturing and marketing a broad range of products for contact lens wearers, featuring advanced materials and optics.
CooperSurgical. Competes in the fertility and women's health care market through its diversified portfolio of products and services, including fertility products and services, medical devices, cryostorage (such as cord blood and cord tissue storage) and contraception.
The CODM uses operating income, as presented in our financial reports, as the primary measure of segment profitability to assess the performance of the segments and make decisions on resource allocation across segments. The CODM evaluates segment operating income on a quarterly basis by comparing actual results to forecasted amounts and historical performance. These evaluations, supported by discussions with the leadership team responsible for managing the operations of each reportable segment, are used to assess segment results, monitor operating trends, and support decisions regarding the allocation of resources and consideration of investment opportunities. The Company does not allocate costs from corporate functions to segment operating income. The Company uses the same accounting policies to generate segment results as it does for consolidated results.
The following tables present revenue and other financial information by reportable segment:
