Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. We define the term “chief operating decision maker” to be our CEO. Our CEO reviews the financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating our financial performance. Accordingly, the Company operates as a single operating and reportable segment that is focused on providing industry cloud solutions tailored to the global life sciences industry.
The CEO gauges the effectiveness of investment and resourcing decisions and trends in the overall efficiency of the business over time using multiple measures of performance, including consolidated net income and adjusted operating income, which is an additional measure of our segment profitability. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total assets.
The following table reconciles the Company’s revenues to consolidated net income and the specific items excluded from cost of revenues and operating expenses to calculate adjusted operating income (in thousands):

Cost of revenues - adjusted, and operating expenses - adjusted, are segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CEO and do not include stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangibles, and litigation settlement-related charges, as we exclude them from our internal management reporting processes. We find it useful to exclude these expenses when we assess the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning, and forecasting future periods.
