Segment Information

Note 16 – Segment Information

Our operations consist of the design, development, manufacture and sale of specialty printers and data acquisition and analysis systems, including both hardware and software and related consumable supplies. We organize and manage our business as a portfolio of products and services designed around a common theme of transferring information via a printing solution onto a variety of media.

We have two reporting segments consistent with our revenue product groups: Product ID and Aerospace.

Our Product ID segment produces an array of high-technology digital color and monochrome label printers, commercial presses, direct to package/overprint printers, mail and sheet/flatpack printers and flexible packaging printers as well as supplies for a variety of industries worldwide. Our Aerospace segment produces our line of aerospace flight deck and cabin printers, as well as specialty airborne certified networking hardware and related supplies and services. The Aerospace segment also includes data acquisition systems used worldwide for a variety of recording, monitoring and troubleshooting.

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as our President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM regularly receives and uses discrete financial information about each reporting segment which is used for performance assessments and resource allocation decisions. The CODM evaluates the performance of and allocates resources to the reporting segments based on segment profit or loss, which represents the segments’ income (loss) before income taxes and excludes corporate expenses. The accounting policies of the reporting segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we refined our segment reporting to better reflect how the CODM evaluates segment performance by allocating certain costs previously included in corporate general and administrative expense to the applicable reporting segments. These allocations were made to enhance the accuracy and comparability of segment profit or loss and are consistent with our organizational alignment and internal management reporting. At the same time, we also revised our methodology for allocating certain costs between cost of goods sold and operating expense at the segment level. As a result, segment cost of revenue, operating expenses and segment profit or loss have been recast to conform to these changes for the period ended April 30, 2025.

Summarized below are the Revenue and Segment Operating Profit for each reporting segment:
