SEGMENT INFORMATION
16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Edwards Lifesciences conducts operations worldwide and is managed in the following four reportable segments: United States, Europe, Japan, and Rest of World. All regions sell products that are used to treat advanced cardiovascular disease. The Company's operating segments are organized primarily based on economic characteristics as well as other characteristics, including types of customers, nature of the regulatory environment, and product offerings.

The Company's geographic segments are reported based on the financial information provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which is the Company's Chief Executive Officer. The CODM evaluates the performance of the Company's reportable segments based on segment net sales and segment operating income. The CODM considers budget or forecast-to-actual results variances for segment operating income on a periodic basis for evaluating the performance of each segment and making decisions about allocating capital and other resources to each segment.

Segment net sales are based on actual foreign exchange rates. Segment expenses and segment operating income are based on internally derived foreign exchange rates and do not include inter-segment profits. Because of the interdependence of the reportable segments, the operating profit as presented may not be representative of the geographical distribution that would occur if the segments were not interdependent. Net sales by geographic area are based on the location of the customer. There were no customers that represented 10% or more of the Company's total net sales.

Certain items are maintained at the corporate level and are not allocated to the segments. The non-allocated items include corporate research and development expenses, manufacturing variances, corporate headquarters costs, net interest income, global marketing expenses, impairment charges, stock-based compensation, foreign currency hedging activities, certain litigation expenses, most of the Company's amortization, and a portion of the Company's depreciation expense. The CODM does not receive information on total assets by reportable segment.
